The Sabres match up well against these Red Wings. They just need to continue their recent run of play.

Larkin’s still out. (Get better, pal.)

PSA for those that might be impacted. The game is being broadcast on NHL Network. No ESPN+ for us out of towners. May have to head to the bar for afternoon hockey and a little day drinking. 

[PromoTheRobot]

Don't forget this game is on NHL Network today. That means NO ESPN+!!

Today is jam-packed with Buffalo sports.

This game has all the makings of a ‘more than chippy’ affair. The Wings have been losing a lot, were clearly frustrated at the end of Tuesday’s beat down, then lost again since. They’re a pissed off team and could see the Sabres as an easy team to take it out on. The Sabres must be prepared to respond. Will they?

[Buffalonill]

Afternoon hockey is horrible.

You just know the wife will have something "pop up" right when the game is about to start.

Or that annoying family member that has to pop in and talk the whole game 

[sabresouth]

Let's go BUFFALO!!!! Keep playing that "no fear" brand of hockey boys. Get it done.

Not quite.  It had been a decade since I'd followed the NHL; we were both WIngs fans at that point in time.  I missed the entire 1980s of Sabres and didn't really pick up on them until I bandwagoned on the '99 Cup Finals team.

Let's get another early goal to dispirit them and then pour it on!

I was thinking of just staying off all media and then watching the encore at 7, but I'm going for a jog and will sit and watch game. Much prefer night games
