Sabres Fan in NS

I didn't grow up in Buffalo, but have family there, so it really felt like I did, at least in part. I learned that the people of Buffalo have a love of life. They work hard and play hard. They do not give up easily when things are difficult. Above all else, most are more than willing to lend a hand to friends, family and above all strangers. Is this what you are after?

What the hell kind of name is that? And I thought that Tage was kinda silly.

1.) Yes. If Vancouver's pick, after the dust settles, is somewhere in the top 5. If it is lower than that ... 85 - 99% yes, depending where their pick lands. 2.) Yes.

MUST WIN!! GO SABRES!! WE LOVE YOU!! Make us proud. Next year will be better. A guy can hope.

My apologies if it has been mentioned earlier. I have not had much time to read a lot of the posts lately. Anyway, tomorrow night will be very emotional when the great Bob Cole is doing the play by play for the final time in his illustrious HNIC career of 50 year. I grew up listening to all his wonderful Bobisms. When I was a kid HNIC on Saturday night was the only time hockey was on TV. Every Saturday was epic. I will miss him, even though I have not watched in many years.

'It's A Kind Of Magic' ... ?

We could be twins, eh? Not just brothers, eh! Great Satan ... Buffalo family ... not liking the Leaves ... Sabres fan from Day 1 ... it all makes sense. You are my long lost twin. NS twins ... @shrader just had an epic conniption.

That 'new' Nova Scotia guy signed up 2 years before I did, almost to the day. I understand you and everybody else are frustrated with the way this season turned out and the 7 before it. Even the NS guys going to their first game and having an absolute fantastic time of a lifetime (so far, anyway) are frustrated. Why can't we just bask in this one shinning moment in yet another bleak season, eh?

I hear Nova Scotia is very nice, but it's winter until July, sometimes August.

It won't help that much. Have you looked at the map, eh? Most of the roads are not fit for travelling fast, or otherwise.

You are being very nice to that other NS guy, but you were not always so nice to me ... ?? ... sure, you are very nice to me now ... ? Why are you reverting to 'wet blanket' status with your second point? This is a fantastic plan, but I will pick the route. And I plan to fly. It is a 2 day journey by car. Although, my friend from NS may have done it non-stop, as many NSers do, in 24 hours.

Since it's almost noon in NS and it's Friday I will put this fantastic news, which is also awesome, right here. It's been 6 months since my last birthday, October 5th, you may recall that I smoked my last smoke that day. I am hopeful this will continue, as I don't even miss it at this high work stress time. Also, Ramadan starts in 30 days, maybe 29, depending on the new moon sighting. My favourite month. Maybe later I will have something to add to this, or the Friday thread, or maybe another thread.

Fantastic!!

I grew up in The Great Satan and had family in Buffalo. Spent a lot of time loving hockey, but not the Leaves. Always loved the Sabres from Day 1. Not a very exciting story, but thanks for asking.

How come you never asked me that? Are I not from Nova Scotia too?

My fellow countyman be sure to represent the great people of NS well. Enjoy the game and this time with your son regardless of the outcome. You will both cherish this trip for ever.

If the teams that @sweetlououtlined are the teams that could sign Skinsie then I am not worried. None of them can offer what Buffalo can in a short drive to home.

MUST WIN!! GO SABRES!! WE LOVE YOU!!

You and what you are saying I do not have a problem with. At first even I was not impressed with it and I am the biggest Clash guy there is ... sorry @Sabel79, but you are an extremely close 1A+++++, but I AM numero uno. Many gave up on Sandinista and did not give it a real chance. What helped me was listening to Mick and Joe (RIP) talk about it. Arm in arm as the arrows rain down on us on that hill, my friend.

Outstanding album that did change my life back in 1980. IMO, it's not their best work. Try 'Sandinista' next. IMO, it's their bestest. Nice accent, mate.

Thanks for the warning, whatever *Australian* AWS ads are.

I read that to mean that he is going to test the FA market. I hope my decoder ring is on the fritz.

It's not hard to read between those lines. He's leaving. And Angry NS should arrive soon.

Canuck?

MUST WIN!! GO SABRES!! WE LOVE YOU!! That is all there is to it. Win for the pride of the players and the fans.
