Yay, we get to watch Eichel dance and laugh and sing all over our grave! I can't wait to tune in to catch all the action, will make sure to get a fork to repeatedly stab myself in the neither region to make it even more painful!

[buffaloboy]

Sabres pitifully underwhelming season continues. 4-2 Vegas. 

[OverPowerYou]

Why couldn’t Eichel go to the Avalanche or someone that is more deserving 

[WhenWillItEnd66]

I can honestly say I cannot care less about this game. We are going to be embarrassed and i have better things to do with my time then watch. We are 1 billion percent not in a league with Vegas and they are going to toy and wipe the ice with us and we will most likely lose another goal scored to IR. LOL Go Sabres!

[French Collection]

I will watch because it is what I do. A dose of hopium before puck drop will help me.

My expectations are low and sinking every day but these guys seem to rebound from stinkers. What a yo-yo season.

Cozens with 2 G, Dahlin with 2A. Tuch finds his stride in his old stomping grounds.

Let’s go Buffalo!

[Night Train]

Going to a Chistmas show with the family. Coming home after and straight to bed. I wish to end the night on a happy note. 

[Sabres Fan in NS]

MUST WIN !!

GO SABRES !!

AVENGE EVERYONE !!

SWORDS !!

 

[That Aud Smell]

Sure. Why not.

[LGR4GM]

[Stads]

I made some pretty disparaging comments before the Boston game and that turned out okay. I have the same feeling with this game. Come out like you did against Colorado and it could be worse. Get your house in order Meatballs!

[Wyldnwoody44]

Win or lose... Who cares. 

If they lose, it's more of the same.

If they win, you know we're losing the following game anyways. 

If it was a 7 pm game, I would put it on the background, but being late, I'm not sure I have it in me tonight to watch this as I work early tomorrow.

Try the cheese grater!

[Pimlach]

 

Seems like another beat down is coming.  Which is why they might show up for tonight. 

[Sabres Fan in NS]

I have a strange feeling in my gut.

It's telling me that the Sabres will come out on fire.

 - Levi with the Miller shutout ... 7 - 1 !!

Book it ..

Tonight I’m taking the wife out for sushi, I’d quite literally rather stick wasabi in my eye than to watch these toddlers throw up over themselves. Vegas is how a team should be built, none of this KA trying to re-invent the wheel or Donny teaching offence first. The plan should have been whats tried and true. The way pretty much every team thats won has done it and will do it as far as team construction and player make up goes. Simple formula. I’m sick of the we know better approach that these morons have sold us. Anyhow, I wish the boys luck.  Break a leg.

[CallawaySabres]

God bless you all who sit through this one. You are a better fan than I. My breaking point has passed and I truly hope they turn this thing around some day. Go Sabes.

[DarthEbriate]

Will the Sabres start the game by skating fast, throwing at least one body check that gets the bench buzzing, and getting a high-quality save within the Knights’ first few shots?

Or will they start skating about 13 minutes into the game and already trailing by 2 where they’ve hung their starter out to dry and look like they haven’t practiced their power play atoll?

I won’t know, because I’ve got my wife’s company holiday party to go to tonight. Carry on the good fight against Jackikin Eichwalker and his new Empire, ‘Spacers!

[lowsabre]

I'm excited for tonight. 3-1 victory prediction... 😊😉

Narrator: it was the "sushi."

[Mustache of God]

Given the way they've played all season this could be a game where they come out as Mr. Hyde and manhandle the Knights, however, I get the sense that the wheels are about to completely fall off this team and I can feel a significant losing streak starting. 

Or maybe they'll scratch Johnson and put in Byrson, when he plays we have yet to lose a game. Maybe there's something there.

You came to Sabrespace and sought out the game day thread to inform strangers on a message board that you have better things to do than watch a game you have no interest in? That's interesting.

The best way to spread holiday cheer is singing loud for all to hear.  There's a few people here who also believe this applies to misery.

It's a nice day out.. I'll hit up some happy hour action.. no predictions on my ability to follow the game once it starts..

[Gatorman0519]

The Sabres have beaten NYR and Boston, so you never know which team shows up.
