I am a bit surprised that Comrie will only play in two of the 6 preseason games. 

 

Have you checked to see how many exhibition games all teams “starters” are playing during the preseason?  Is it really an anomaly or more of an average for most teams?

2 of 6 games is pretty much standard for a starting goalie.

Probably but Comrie is coming to a new team and the hope is he plays more games then Anderson.

I just figure they would want to ramp him up to play more games this year since he has never played more then what, 25 in a season at the NHL level.

Really it is only a game though as I thought he might play 3 instead of 2.

Pretty reasonable take honestly.

Question… Down in Sarasota and can’t get through to Comcast…

 

Does ESPN+ $9.99 month service broadcast most Sabres games during the regular season??

Mostly.  Does not include games on NHL Network (like tonight) and national games on.... wherever they may be this year (unless maybe ESPN has them now?)  But it will get you most of the games.

Fios has the pregame and game listed, tell DTV to  get their act together 

If the game is on NHL Network, does it show on DTV/Fios?  Tonight's game is an NHL Network game.

As of right now, it isn't showing up on DTv's 635-1.  Expecting it'll be there, sometimes they're slow to update the programming in the guide, but wouldn't lose that internet addy just yet.

You made me check my tv, and spectrum has it listed.

Last year ESPN+ had all Sabres games that were not nationally televised.  You just get blacked out if you are in the home or away market of the team they are playing. Not sure where Sarasota would fall in that blackout rule.

This year COULD be different.

I live 97 miles west of Boston and the Sabres-Bruins games are blacked out on ESPN+ (and don't get NESN on Hulu). Apparently I'm in the Bruins' 'home market'. I feel so dirty. 😏 @Believer, Sarasota will surely have Lightning games blacked out by ESPN+ and possibly the Panthers too. Maybe available on local cable (ie, Bally Sports).

Hoping Peterka shows out today.  I'm not sure if he will end up in Rochester or Buffalo to start the season, but it would be nice to see him have a standout day and force the coaching staff to keep him on the Sabres

He's got time. We have so many players that can "break out" this season it's hard to just pull for one. Casey, Cozens, Quinn, Power and more. It's a fun time to be a Sabres fan

It’s listed on My Fios on both NHL and MSG, will report back if it’s blacked out on the former

Pre game show and everything! Ya

Will have to see replays posted here or on Twitter.  : /

If HCDG is going to rock a GAO line and start them against opponents' top lines and roll them out after goals against like he did with Okposo's line last season, then that's not a 4th line in terms of time on ice even strength.

DTv is NOT showing it on 635-1.  And, for those in WNY it is blacked out on NHLN.  The work around is it IS available on the MSG+ app.

My cable went out, so I’m blind 

[RochesterExpat]

What a heads up play by Mitts. Tuch got robbed.

No stream?

Not on the Sabres website.  No data on the Canes website.  It is on MSG+ (at least in WNY, no data on other areas).

VINNIE

[RochesterExpat]

That was pretty.

[Doohicksie]

[Taro T]

Vinnie on the nice feed from Skinner.

1-0.

Sheahan & Bjork can't be too happy about that.  😉
