Once again 26CB brings his *A* game to the GDT.

 

Let's hope the Sabres do the same.

 

I've been tempted to beat 26CB to the punch, but it would end up something like ...

 

*GDT - The Sabres are playing some other team, someplace, sometime today, I think?*

 

So, I never do it.

Boston back to back was fun because there seemed to be something on the line. Games like tonight put me back into a really could not care less mode.....

 

The Coyotes don't exactly elicit emotion since they are rarely seen. Haven't faced the Sabres in over two years (11/19/11).

With Porter out, does Scott dress tonight?

 

Teddy said after the Bruins game on Saturday night that only 1 line plus a few other guys had hustled during that game -- it sounded like he felt like that was the primary reason for the loss.

 

While the loss -- and the presence of passengers -- were disappointing, I liked Teddy's reaction. He is creating higher expectations.

 

Let's see if the players internalize those expectations and come back with a better top-to-bottom effort.

It'll be nice seeing Mark back in there. I really under-rated this kid amoungst our higher draft picks. He has quietly been one of our better players.

Always had a spot in my heart for the Yotes. The days of Tkachuk and Selanne were something..

 

I shall watch this game.. I may not remember the end, but I will be watching.

 

Go Sabres!

If Sabres' sick guys can't play, team won't have option of calling up anyone. The Amerks are off to Switzerland for Spengler Cup.

 

Looks like we're finally going to see that Foligno82-inkman-26CornerBlitz line. Get to the rink, men!

I'll probably get ejected for cross checking someone in the face...if I can catch them. I can't really turn or stop, is that going to be a problem?

Just stand in front of the net. I'll try to bank a shot in off your ass.
