GDT: Those dastardly Flyers V The Good Guys (7pm MSG) @ KBC

[Mustache of God]

ITs KOs birthday and he's a goal away from 20. I'm so sure he's scoring tonight I just put $10 on that.

Fourth line will be Bjork-Girgensons-Hinostroza.

I hope they're just evaluating Bjork to determine if he stays with the big team or they decided to slide him down to Rochester via waivers.

Hey all - big game tonight!
 

May or may not be news to you, however, some info that @That Aud Smell likely should’ve dropped. 😉😆

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — On April 14, 1996, the Buffalo Sabres played their final game in an arena filled with fond memories for many Buffalonians.

Memorial Auditorium, or as it was more commonly known, “The Aud,” was the venue to see a big event before KeyBank Center became the place to go. Located at the foot of Main Street near what we now know as Canalside, it was a place where people would sometimes sleep outside in order to get in line for tickets.

And those tickets came in a variety; Concerts, sports and more all came to “The Aud.” It opened in 1940, but it wasn’t for another three decades that the Sabres started calling it home.

Although the last game was played in 1996, “The Aud” wasn’t demolished until 2009. But during that last day on the ice, 16,000 fans accompanied the team, helping boost their spirits to claim a 4-1 victory over the Hartford Whalers.

26 seasons were spent there, and it’s been 26 years since that last game.

Meatballs said freakin’ Eakin still hurt (not sure if he aggravated UB/LB injury).

Hello Teammates, Punch checking in. 

Looking for the big W tonight with RJ calling it. 

[Spoonman]

RJ - oh glorious news to my ears!

[bob_sauve28]

Oh crap 

[Carmel Corn]

Ugh, Fitz and Bryson!

[Bangarang]

That’s annoying 

Bryson and Fitz are a liability together 

[Pimlach]

Goalie interference?   
 

Wake up Sabres. .  

[Believer]

Sabre pushed the net after the goal…

Shoot the puck Dahlin…

Too many “around the horn” passes in the O-Zone… Shoot the puck rush the net… Get the rebound… 

[bob_sauve28]

Fudge 

[Carmel Corn]

Whelp, that's not so good!

[Believer]

Geez… Anderson off to another bad start… 

[Pimlach]

Wow.  Lazy work in our zone.  

[Carmel Corn]

Anybody not think we need two different goalies next year...whether UPL is one of them or not?

[Spoonman]

Well PHUCK! Nap time is after morning skate!

We do but UPL doesn’t give me much confidence either.

[Pimlach]

Don’t understand that 4th line. ?  This is Philly. Play Hayden over Bjork.  A JAG is a JAG but use the right one for the situation.

Not sure what to think. Thoughts include UPL w 55-60 games & Anderson to mentor/coach/backup. Not sure what is out there in FA / trade. This is a 3 + year issue w both frat boys staying in school (one would’ve been in ROCH next year).
