Sabres Fan in NS

DON'T DO IT!! CHARLIE., IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS GOOD ... DON'T DO IT. (sorry MattPie). I always suggest meeting in the darkest ally possible. That way the other dude / dudette will be to scared to try anything. Yup.

Thanks to our fan in Baltimore who is up with the crows for getting us up and going last night in Nashville, but I will give this a go ... I know many Sabres fans hate Toronto, but my hatred is all encompassing for The Great Satan. My hockey hatred is saved for others. JUST WIN, BABY!! I don't care how it looks. MUST WIN!! GO SABRES!!

Before the season started and we saw the Sabres were scheduled to go into Tampa and Nashville with a game in Miami in between no one in their wildest dreams would have thought that the Sabres would play well and not be crushed by two of the top teams in the NHL. I'm with SwampD the Sabres are still playing well and could have won these last three games. These are the teams that are already getting into playoff form. The Sabres are fine. I am not sure they played a real stinker all year, which is a refreshing change. Onward ...

GAME ON????? Lets go already. I didn't have my beauty nap today and I'm fading fast. It's 9:00 PM here. Lets go, Oh yeah ... MUST WIN!! GO SABRES!! (why do I have a double space happening there?)

Good ole Tom was great, but was notorious for letting a squeaker right between the legs / 5 hole at the least opportune time. Funniest part, but not in a ha, ha way, was that he stopped doing it after going to Pittsburgh and winning those two cups with Mario and Jagr et al.

I don't think that we have enough MUST WINS!! in here. So, MUST WIN!! GO SABRES!!

I just like saying Tom (between the legs) Barrasso.

The Leaves at 4/1? No. Just, no.

Tom (between the legs) Barrasso?

Come on, guys. Give the kid a break. Someone has to be the new Wookie, since he has really upped his trade proposal game. Same with LGR. Love you, Wook and LGR.

And yet, notable players, most recently Skinner, agree to be traded to Buffalo. FA sign here, but anyone would (probably) if the price is higher than right.

Darn, those misssing letter(s). I assume = skids. LOL!! I hate when that happens and it happens to me a lot.

Yup. That was yesterday. Risto had the day off to ... ?????

So, this is what happens when I am kind and let someone else start one of these. Ssshhheeeessshhhhh ...

Oh, naps are the best thing ever invented. I think Eleven did it.

Thank you, sir. I am not at all superstitious (hey, Inky), but am glad you started this thread. MUST WIN!! GO SABRES!!

You are too new to the board to know that I have been clamouring for the Sabres to draft a Moosehead since 2013. First it was FUCALE!! when McKinnon, or Drouin were not realistic, Then EHLERS!!, then MEIER!!, then HISCHIER. I am a legend here, in part, because of this. (Not really a legend, but ,,, what is the opposite?)

EHLERS!! ?

Meanwhile Man U continues to be terrible. Yesterday resulted in a draw against a team that would be relegted should the season end today. LOL!! MAN U!!

The powers that be ordained it from the beginning ... Everton was not leaving Anfield with a W. Classic is correct, but see above.

The Raptors are starting to run away from the rest of the NBA at 20 and 4. The much hyped meeting with The Warriors ended in a spectacular OT win for Toronto.

I don't remember any articles. I just remember Flagg and LGR hiding in the bushes and jumping out and measuring Jack's 'stick'. The rest is Urban Legend material.

What is also very nice is that, although they didn't look great doing so, they banked 20 out of a possible 20 points on the streak. No one can take those away come crunch time in March.

Skinner has always been a good goal scorer, but, as has been mentioned here and in the media, he has never played with a centre as good as Eich. Based on history, I believe Skinner to be in the $7M area. Do the Sabres want to give a bit of a premium in that they believe his goal scoring pace this season, so far, has as much, or more, to do with him playing with Jack as it does that it's a contract year? That does not seem to be JBOT's style. On the other hand, will Skinner be willing to leave a bit of $ on the table since he likes it here and is in a very good spot playing with Jack? I think the Sabres do plan on signing Skinner to an extension. I believe they were maybe 50/50 at the time of the trade and wanted to see how it worked. Well, it has worked out very well. So, I think the Sabres will sign Skinner for 7 years and $7.5M / year, as front loaded as currently allowed by the CBA. In the back of JBOT's mind will be the inevitable lockout and salary rollback.

Congratulations Rasmus. May this be the first of many awards in your career. Hopefully to include a Norris, or two, or better yet a Conn Smythe, or two.
