Doohickie

Yeah, the broadcast team was horrible, but there was also a note of .... pity?.... for the Sabres in their coverage which was the cringeworthy part.

I wonder if he was served notice before the road trip, that if the trip goes poorly, he's done. He looks like he knows he's a dead man walking.

This really stood out to me tonight. That whole line is out of sync but out of the three, Skinner is the most dysfunctional piece.

One of the goals was a direct result of Clifton toe picking, going down and the Ducks picked up the puck went down and scored. In a shift a little later, two or maybe even three Sabres inexplicably fell in rapid succession. I remember Joki was one of them. Tbh I think I'd rather see Bryson than Joki at this point.

I have to say, the way they talked about the Sabres was cringeworthy. Trying to decide how much of that is the Sabres themselves being cringeworthy versus the way they approached them.

I am. I'm going to leave you fine gentleman. As a consolation prize, here is a video cued up to Stevie Nicks in a sun dress, twirling a baton.

Dahell, guys.

Time to pull a Gerard Gallant and fire Granato on the roadie and let him find his own way home.

Yikes guys. Try to at least look like you're paid to do this.

Those puck carrier name flags are annoying af.

That was a world class dive. Holy geez.

Calling it: Tage with two goals in this game.

If you just want hockey, ESPN+ is much cheaper. You're getting value from your D+ subscription (or if you're not watching D+ you should just cancel it).

JJP driving play. Love to see it. NHL.TV was a far more expensive product too. I'd willingly pay the extra though.

Agree with every point you made.

You missed "protect the puck, Casey."

Casey just handed it away. He's been doing that lately.

I just poured a Knob Creek Bourbon.

I'm going to counter your view with my own. The MW thing is a ritual. There are several pregame rituals in this thread. @Sabres Fan in NS always posts this song. Gifs like this are increasingly common. Then there's this hidey thing: And now the newest tradition: You complaining about tradition! I, for one, accept your new ritual, and support your right to be a whining weenie.

Calf man, eh?

I'm still gathering evidence and will modify my hypothesis accordingly.

Mainline it!

Oh, the Buffalo has a name now? "Randy Bovine"
