Anderson, showing his usual early game prowess.

For those of you in the Buffalo local market, this is what comes up EVERY commercial break for those of us out-of-towners watching ESPN+:

 

PLEASE ESPN MAKE IT STOP.

I dislike that ad immensely.  To those not in the Buffalo viewing area, my deepest sympathies.

[Doohicksie]

That song is so sad it can't be called a jingle.

Whoppers rock!! 

 

I wish Fogemo was a Sabre when RJ was in his prime, that woule be a cool call on a goal 

[Believer]

Trouble keeping it in their zone… Few shots… 

[OntarioSabresFan]

1 shot on goal...

Saving our energy for the third! 😜

[Believer]

Trouble putting shots on net…

[grinreaper]

Sabre's new strategy adopted from boxing. They're letting the Kings wear their arms out early by giving them so many shots.

Rob Ray taking the words out of my mouth and suggesting that it's time for the good guys to use their speed.

[K-9]

No signs of a pulse, doctor. Might be critical.

[Dreams Burn Down]

With this start, I'm thankful that Anderson got the nod.

[Eleven]

For the five people who can watch it:  How do the Sabres look?

What I'm reading so far isn't good.

No love for single people.

[Believer]

Came out flat… Most of period in D-zone… No pressure on Kings shooters… Anderson keeping us in the game

[Huckleberry]

shot number 3 

[Believer]

Too cute by half… Shoot the puck, Tage

[bob_sauve28]

 

[jad1]

No-showing for a period isn't a good look for a young team.  This team seems to do it a lot.

[Believer]

If DG sent them out with an aggressive game plan on home ice… the team isn’t listening… 

[grinreaper]

Sabres fortunate to get out of that period unscathed with only their pride hurt. 

Anderson is so good early in games. His anticipation and awareness are most likely what has allowed him to play into his 60's.

I'm starting to understand.

[Cheektorado]

I tuned in late in the 1st.  Thought they looked good and wondered what everyone was talking about.

Marty clued me in during the intermission.

[Gatorman0519]

Can only get better from here right?

Oh boy.  I think I might log out and just check the box score tomorrow.
