  1. Swayman was great too. That tandem will be tough all season. Unfortunately.
  2. https://www.nhl.com/news/boston-bruins-charlie-mcavoy-suspended
  3. Punch - Did Dodo put an extra shot of espresso in your Americana this morning? You are on 🔥!
  4. Not taking anything away from UPL, but 78 will be back in the press box soon enough. He was entrusted with 8 minutes tonight. That’s what the coaches think of his play. Clifton was playing 15:30 and will contribute as this team improves this fall. This team finally gets two wins in a row. Two is a coincidence. Beat the same team on home ice Friday. Three is a trend.
  5. Let’s see how many games McAvoy gets. Marty says 5. Hopefully six, so he misses his appointment with the Sabres on 11/14.
  6. But, but Rob said, “ no need to shoot at the net just keep it out of your own end” after they pulled their goalie with 3:32. Living in 1980. Bring Marty down to replace him for color please.
  7. Should have gone. Something definitely started tonight.
  8. That what you HOPE she says.
  9. Last year, obviously Muel had the most TOI on the PK, but followed by Lybuskin, Joki, Gus, Cozens, Dahlin and Tuch. The new look has EJ, Greenway, Muel, Tage, Power, Clifton and Kyle. These are wholesale personnel changes, and it’s showing early returns. The fact Ras doesn’t have to play the PK is going to help spreading those minutes 5v5 without exhausting him.
  10. Time change your name. Maybe SabresBillsFan.
  11. The results of this game, and the emotional swings, took away all the positive vibes built up this weekend with the Sabres victory last night. This team had a chance to sound a death knell to Bill’s coaching career. I could accept a Bills loss, where the comeback to take a lead had never occurred, but to allow an inept QB to lead this team to a game winning TD drive only confirms my feeling that without the dawgs like Milano, White, D. Jones and Oliver this team cannot compete for a Championship. The inability to hold this team to at most a field goal is nothing less than unacceptable.
  12. Tuch didn’t score but he deserves to be acknowledged for the momentum swing. JJP got an additional shift or two and 7th in TOI for forwards. He needs more minutes tonight.
  13. So true. Corollary Mid town Buffalo -> Coles -> Elmwood Taco and Subs. Mighty was definitely frequented after Gabels. I didn’t know what Mexican food was until I moved to SoCal after college.
  14. Any line with VO will play protected minutes, and rightfully so. You can’t expect this newly constructed “third line” to see many 5 v 5 minutes. I wouldn’t be surprised if the “fourth line” sees more minutes than the third. Unless he sees shifts with the top two lines, then JJP has been defacto demoted. He’s averaged almost 14 minutes per game TOI. Let’s see how many gets tonight.
  15. Or is it Yanni? Great flow. “You can him Ray, or you can call him Jay. You can call him anything, but you duzzint have to call him Johnson”.
  16. Never could understand how Soap lasted only 4 seasons and Benson got 7. I mean Gene Gattling, Mrs Crowse and Clayton Enditcott were nice ensemble pieces but nothing like Soap. Robbie Benson weighed in….”Sir, about that Butler idea, all the way up with a red hot poker”.
  17. Quality stats and strong take. The conversation is elevated when you are here!
