Ok it's time.. Long time lurker - long time admirer - first post.. 1) I was 11 years old. I lived in Burlington ON. My dad's company had season tickets. My first live game at the AUD was against the RAGS. Ron Duguay was a rookie and he had a brush cut. Sabres won 2-0. Edwards with the shutout. I then remember witnessing a helmetless Richard Martin sliding into the post and a terrible cuncussion (same game?). I also remember a very intense game with the Red Army. We won 6-1 (I think) and Danny Gare sliding into the corner boards while celebrating a goal. I was HOOKED. I moved in 1982, and currently live in Winnipeg MB. I am a STH for the Jets (both Jets 1.0 and 2.0). I love hockey. Regardless, each year for the last 12 years, I have taken my Dad and my son back to Buffalo for a road trip to see a few games at KBC. As for my son, in these parts, procreation is how you make Sabres fans. He is my best friend ? 2) Pat LaFontaine for me is my all-time favorite. Like Capt Kirk, he was (is) a true captain. I would follow him anywhere. 3) Mayday is one of my best moments - No Goal is the worst. Also, not being able to explain to my 10 year old why Briere and Drury would not return sucked. 4) I don't know how to properly fix this team. More talent is obvious. But I can tell you that SabreSpace has been my safety net. I am grateful for this site, and ALL of the posters. Especially while our team tries to figure it out. So... Thanks to all of you.
