Well we'd be playing what, 5 or 6 national anthems each night? In different languages too? Long and expensive

I didn't explain it fully. You'd play Sweden one time a season, Latvia one time etc. And you could do it instead of Canada if the two minutes are that precious.

So Disco Dan's swiveling hips seem to be settling down.

Hey guys!  :w00t:

 

Staying up late tonight to watch the game from Sweden, can't wait, hoping for yet another beauty,

 

Is tonights team broadcasted yet?

 

Awesome! Glad you get a chance to watch it. What time will it be where you live when the game starts?

I just had a great idea: The Sabres should have some kind of contest for international fans. They'd win a trip to Buffalo for a Sabres game. You could limit it to foreign places where players hail from — Sweden, Finland, Latvia, Pittsburgh. Or open it up to all international fans. We've had posters from England, Germany, Belgium, where else?

 

By the way, my other idea in this vein, to play the national anthem of players' home countries before selected games, went nowhere. I do not have a great track record.

 

Good idea, but people in USA want to hear the national anthem on a game, not swedens, Ullmark would apreciate it, but im pretty sure he appreciates the national anthem of USA as much, i am sure it makes him proud to hear it, it reminds him of where he is, and who invited him to play in their country, as an human beeing, as an guest, as an goalie, as an sabre.

 

It also have to do with traditions, traditions should never be broken if they combine what we are as fans.

 

That is my opinion.

Awesome! Glad you get a chance to watch it. What time will it be where you live when the game starts?

@JoeYerdon: Zach Bogosian taking part in AM skate.

 

 

@sizzlemeister: Bogo injured during morning skate, out another 6-8 weeks.

 

Please tell me you're kidding on Bogosian going down.

Keep thinkin'. I'd enjoy both.

Saxed from nhl.com

 

Sabres team scope: Buffalo has won three straight games and five of six to reach .500 for the first time since the end of the 2012-13 season. Rookie goalie Linus Ullmark made 36 saves in a 3-2 victory at the Florida Panthers on Thursday. Coach Dan Bylsma would not say Friday whether Ullmark or Chad Johnson will start. Ullmark is 4-2-0 with a 2.45 goals-against average and .924 save percentage. Defenseman Zach Bogosian, who has been out since the first week of training camp because of a lower-body injury, was a full participant at practice Friday. "We were on the ice at 11 or 12, and I think I was out here at like 8 o'clock," Bogosian told the Sabres website. "I was a little excited." Bylsma said he hopes to have Bogosian participate in a morning skate at some point next week to determine if he's ready for game action. Defenseman Mike Weber is week-to-week after he had surgery Friday on a lingering knee injury, Bylsma said.

Just a joke.

 

 

:doh: Didn't catch the source. Ha Ha Glad I wasn't the only one to fall for it. Well played Sizzle.

Where did you read this ?

A credible site called leftwing lock has Johnson confirmed as the starter. The site was wrong on a Johnson/Ullmark call earlier this season. So there may be chance Ullmark will play.

Sorry MODO, I was also hoping for an Ullmark start. Still excited for the game though!

Eichel and O'Reilly are due for big games. Risotto has been a Norris level player last few games. I bet we score two PP goals tonight.

 

The PK has been the biggest difference of late, IMO And not because of the goaltending, they are giving up way fewer quality opportunities
