  1. Yep. There are a few reasons why the attendance was so low. Team sucking for so long is definitely a main one.
  2. • This is the third and final meeting between the Sabres and Islanders this season. • Last meeting: Buffalo defeated New York 6-3 in Buffalo on Feb. 15 • The Sabres are 3-7-0 in their last 10 games against the Islanders; 5-5-0 at home. • This is the 184th game all-time between Buffalo and New York; Buffalo has an 85-73-25 series record. • The Sabres are 49-31-12 at home against the Islanders all-time. • Since March 27, the Sabres' power play is ranked first in the NHL at 40 percent (14-for-35). • Buffalo has scored a goal on six of its 13 power plays over the team's last five games. • The Sabres are 9-for-28 (32.1 percent) on the power play against the Islanders since the start of the 2018-19 season (15 games). • Buffalo has scored a power-play goal in three of its last four games against New York.
  3. My uncle taking me down to the aud, having a friend of his who was an employee open a back or side door and letting us in for free, and making our way to the standing room only section and watching the game with popcorn, pop and my uncle. It was probably in the late 70’s. Good shtuff.
  4. Boy! You are full of such… What’s the word I’m looking for… It’s at the tip of my tongue… Oh yeah! Contempt.😬
  5. And Hall is signed thru 24-25 at a cap hit of 6 mil. 😂
  6. But but but Ted Nolan being in the organization would be so amazing too! Stanley cups galore! 😂 Oh, and bring back the whammy weenie and fans in hard hats.
  7. Not to mention I (and I’m sure I’m not alone) couldn’t possibly care less what Peters says. About anything Sabres related. There’s that too 😂
  8. He’s done that a few times. Right. Classy.
  9. • This is the third and final meeting between the Sabres and Devils this season. • Last meeting: New Jersey defeated Buffalo 4-3 in Buffalo on Dec. 29. • The Sabres are 4-4-2 in their last 10 games against the Devils; 4-5-1 on the road. • This is the 170th game all-time between Buffalo and New Jersey; Buffalo has an 82-59-28 series record. • The Sabres are 38-29-16 on the road against the Devils all-time. • The Sabres have earned at least a point in four of their last five games in New Jersey (3-1-1). • Since March 27, the Sabres' power play ranks first in the NHL at 41.2 percent (14-for-34). • Buffalo has scored a goal on six of its 12 power plays over the team's last four games.
  10. Yes AND I’d throw in a mid tier prospect and a late 1st round pick. Florida would not trade him. He’s a major asset to their current success.
  11. And that’s why I could have engaged with the ignorant (in my opinion) comments some posters make and made about Reinhart. But like a lot of opinions here, it’s always a useless exercise because no one is changing their minds anyway.
  12. 1) Team MVP … Dahlin 2) Rookie of the Year … is Krebs still considered a rookie? If not, then Samuelsson 3) Comeback Player of the Year … Skinner 4) Unsung Hero (player who doesn’t get enough credit) … Okposo or Asplund 5) Top Forward … TNT 6) Team Norris … Dahlin 7) Team Vezina … Swiss cheese
  13. I agree… There’s too many checks and balances and eyes on the situation now… Was the Crosby draft fixed? Was the year after that? And how about the year after that? At some point there were too many checks and balances and eyes put in place where fixing a draft was absolutely impossible.
  14. So from this post …. You only equate “points production” with “better at hockey” …. interesting
  15. Well this is bait. Reinhart of course. Not to mention… The title is poorly written.
  16. Is MAF an upgrade over Anderson? I think so. So would it be MAF and UPL? Or … Bring back Anderson and have MAF? And let UPL marinate one more year in Rochester? I personally have seen enough of Anderson and under no circumstances do I want him back. But that’s me…
  17. That’s your trigger. It’s a good one! Mine is … could care less/couldn’t care less. Some people seriously don’t understand the difference. 😂
  18. I wanted to give DG a full season pretty much to evaluate this question… So my answer now is… Yes he has the best coach since Lindy Ruff the Sabres have had. I like the way he thinks the game, I like the way he makes adjustments especially period to period. I like the way he mixes up the lines if a certain line has become stagnant or ineffective. Even if it’s a temporary mix up. And lastly I like his demeanor on the bench and off the ice.
  19. Amen to this! I have felt that way since going to the first game at the arena in 97. Very shortsighted planning when it comes to elevators. And the single escalator on both sides. It should’ve been double escalators. Very poor planning in my opinion.
  20. Why does TNT’s wikapedia page still show him with a St. Louis Blues jersey? Does someone know how to change that? Same with Okposo’s. Outdated. Anyway, he’ll be 25 in October. Would it be too much risk to go 7 years at 7 mil per? That way it’s not an obnoxious amount like Skinner‘s contract. And if TNT has down years, 7 mil. hurts but shouldn’t be crippling.
  21. And it’s wonderful
  22. On pace does nothing for me. How has Marner done for a full season? (checks stats) Damn good season. Too bad he and his band of failures will get rolled in the 1st round 😂
