I think I ran into this last year or the year before that .... the concession discounts and the Sabrebucks card is active during the season. Not preseason. So it’s the same this season. Ok, it is what it is. As far at the seats where you’re at ... yikes, yea that’s bad.

I have it. Haven’t used it at all, all summer. I only really use it to get STH discounts at the concession stands ?. Maybe I’ll use it more for things and report back.

I was just saying as a general thought. Sorry if it seemed like I meant it about the NHL Trade Rumors site. I just see several of those “I have a secret source so I’m legit” guys trying to make a name for themselves.

Barnaby with a slightly better scoring touch would amazing ?

I wish there was a “vetted accepted sources” rule. No one can post basement twitter dwellers claiming they have sources regarding trades and such. It muddies the waters too much.

Although I understand why ... In 2018, I wanted JB to take a risk and sign Reinhart to a full 8 years. I think he would have jumped at the chance to sign for 6 mil. per for 8 years. After this season, (unless he absolutely sucks), there’s no way he agrees to under 7.5 mil. Even on a short term deal. His contract last year and this year is a very very good deal. No way the next one will be.

Between practices and 3 games, I think the Sabres brass got a good look at what R2 is and needs. As others have said, no surprises. They may look at Cozens and Joker for another two games before sending them down.

Did he play in 3 of the 4 games so far?

When the highlights are posted somewhere, I hope someone throws it on here ?

I just keep telling myself ... it’s only preseason. Don’t take too much good or bad from these games. No definitive knee jerk reactions or decisions. Still ... it was a nice game to see them battle and win it. Especially vs. the Leafs

Unless he tanks and tanks HARD, I think VO is a lock to make the team. Tonight was a statement game for him. Good for him. Reinhart being Reinhart with his passes. love it

Brain fart by Eichel lol

VO! very nice ? Sick pass by Eichel. Had some urgency to it

Not a full house 65% Leafs fans it’s preseason take your pick lol

They are both not very good lol

Aren’t these guys TSN employees? I don’t expect anything less than heavy bias toward the Leafs.

It’s just you. It’s Adrenalin mixed with excitement in the home barn. He’s no longer “slow average”. He’s average skating speed now. As he was last season too. At least that’s how I see it ?‍♂️

You still read Harrington? Like ... um .. . Why? I stopped cold turkey about 10 years ago, he’s just not a good writer or “sports journalist”. There are better reading choices to waste my time with than that bloated sack of protoplasm.

So this is a ¾ NHL ¼ AHL lineup tonight. The results hopefully indicate that.

Another question is ... what do you think?

So unfortunate about Bailey. When we drafted him, I really wanted him to turn into a John Leclair/Keith Tkachuk type. I wonder if he’ll go to Europe and try to scratch out a living, or just hang em up. Does he have a degree in anything?

I think there’s zero chance Sheary, Sobotka, Ullmark, Okposo, Thompson and Mitts get sent to Roch. So, to me, this isn’t a “bubble team” tonight or at risk of getting sent to Roch if they have a bad game or two for those players.
