  1. The Dahlin penalty with the repercussions.... Someone mentioned that Olofsson really wants to be a Sabre. I believe it. Olofsson was there in Dahlin's defense. Skinner is Skinner; I love having him on this team. I know Mittelstadt has his flaws, but mark my words when playoffs come he will be a warrior.
  2. Another note: Comrie or UPL... which one is best? It might just be Comrie. Either way, I'm kind of okay with Comrie and UPL as a tandem next year with Levi getting some seasoning in the AHL and being the first injury callup.
  3. Rewatching the game... watching the Buffalo feed this time. Impressions so far: Once Tage scored the Sabres carried the play, both scoring and physically. I think Stillman is a necessary piece of this team. The hip check in the second period was fantastic. Just saw the Hinostroza goal and I have to say I think there's some strong chemistry between Mitts and Cozens. They kept that play alive a long time before the feed to Vinny. Peterka is oh-so-close to breaking out. It will happen, if not this season, next.
  4. I think the thing that makes it the finest rock album in my view is the production quality of it. The music is good, the lyrics mind-blowing, but the way it's all put together is just outstanding. Kudos to a young Alan Parsons, the album's engineer.
  5. March 1st was the 50th anniversary of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, possibly the best rock album of all time (in my opinion anyway).
  6. They're residents, not citizens. (Well, citizens of the U.S....) Hell, Fort Worth is the 12th largest city in the country. A Fort Worth - Stars rivalry would be nasty!
  7. Live look-in of the new guy arriving in Rochester:
  8. I think it makes sense for Houston. Natural rivalry with the Stars.
  9. My wife calls my cat Iggy Pop. (Full name: Ignacio Butterscotch, Earl of Purrington)
  10. I believe it was posted a while back when the Black and Red were reintroduced, but it's been a while. Thanks for sharing.
  11. Girgs has been looking more dangerous offensively lately, scoring against the Caps and having a few other good chance. Also, as a high forward for a pinching defenseman there's very little drop off compared a real Dman. I would say if you played him on D he'd slot in at 5 or 6 in our current lineup. He'd never get skated around to allow an OT winner by Pominville, for instance.
  12. If he starts lighting the lamp we'll have our answer. Eh. Pay him to scout the State of Hockey. Still has an association with the club and he can live his life.
  13. I think Kyle has played out the string. His contract is up this year. He will choose to retire and possibly take on a position as a development coach or scout or some such if he wants to stay with the club. I think if the team makes the playoffs this season he can hang up the skates knowing he was a part of the rebuild that got them there. If he gets to 30 goals he'll have plenty of value. That's why he plays.
  14. If he hits 30 there will be teams lining up to trade for him. That sounds like such a heavy, heavy line to play against.
  15. He was one of the bright spots under Krueger scoring 20 goals in 54 games. If you feature him, he will score. His problem with respect to the Sabres is they have plenty of offensive talent to feature, and Victor doesn't have an all around game that fits with Granato's scheme. Throw him over the wall to a franchise that's got nothing on offense and they'll be glad to have him. Depends on the competition. If we're likely to get into a track meet, play Vinny. If you're playing a heavy team, Greenway.
  16. VO's problem is that we have several players that can release that lethal one timer. Tage, Cozey, Quinn, Skinny, Mitts... they've all scored from there on the power play.
  17. "Lower Body Injury" (more of a maintenance day)
  18. Finally a voice of reason That's not reason. It's @Buffalonill.
  19. I think he's thriving on the notoriety he's gotten since Goal Gummy Bear. And he's had an increased role with Dahlin dinged up.
  20. I'll be honest here: Knowing it was the Kids Take Over Day, I watched the Bolts broadcast. I think it is a great opportunity for the kids but... it's not my thing. But I'm also not a public figure tweeting about it.
  21. I still think Rasmus will rub off on Owen. Can you imagine two #1 Ds with mean streaks? 😮 I choose to interpret the clown emoji as a father figure blended with a repressed desire to slather lovers in cheese spread. This is your Sabrespace POST OF THE DAY!
