I think Benson gets his first tonight. Gotta imagine he'll have some family and friends in attendance.

I would still prefer Cozens and Mitts swapped.  Maybe Donny Meatballs feels this will lift Cozens up.

I haven't heard about any roster moves.... has Levi been sent down to Rochester on paper?

Mee too. I would also prefer Krebs and Jost switched.

Is @Brawndo actually working today?  Vacation maybe?

Where is the lineup post?

Are we going to use "The Butler Did It" when he scores? I apologize if this has been previously discussed

No.

And, yes.

It was a discussion that went from deranged to whatever is worse than deranged.

Thank you for the prompt response. I would say worse than deranged is "Florida"

The Sabres play better on the road.  Look for a win tonight.

Even with the 2 game losing streak, this team is 4-3-1 in its last 8.

If he is actually healthy, expecting Comrie gets tonight's start.  Granato likes to let guys get action against teams they have history with.

What are they in their last 9?

[Doohicksie]

Rousek to Rochester

[rickshaw]

Hope for a result because we need one. I hope Dylan gets going. He has really looked like he is skating in quicksand this year. Has to start playing freely. 

[Thorner]

The Sabres may have had their best game of the season last year in Winnipeg, they held the puck in the Jets end for nearly the entirety of the first 2 periods (with Hellebuyck standing on his head to keep it close).

Hopefully a repeat - the Sabres have had pretty reasonable success in Winnipeg lately

Alright, you convinced me to stream it. You’re on the hook if this is a waste of time.

That’s fair.

We are also 20% of the way through the season. Sticking around the .500 we’ve established so far wouldn’t be surprising and that means a big W today

I planned to. The person I was supposed to go with who has seasons ended up not being able make it, though. I suppose I should have gone, it’s been a while since I’ve missed. But I don’t particularly want to shell out the cash to see them right now (even if I had it lol).

Also realistically beers on tap, in addition to tasting like plastic for some reason are like 35 dollars a pop. So, that’s probably the real reason let’s be real for a second here

Good evening Teammates, Punch checking in. 
 

Big game. Gotta get a Dub tonight.

Benson, Krebs, Comrie - all have something to play for, it’s gonna be tough tonight. 

Go Sabres !!! 

Muscle Weight.

On paper this is a team we should beat. Though they probably feel the same way.
