From sabres.com:

The team has brought in Cami Clune as its primary singer of the United States and Canadian national anthems. Clune, who has performed the anthem as select Sabres games in recent seasons, in a Buffalo native who achieved national acclaim for her performance on Season 19 of NBC’s “The Voice.”

She sounds good in several clips.

i’ll have a listen.

Not even kidding @Stoner that your idea on the kind of singer they should have is among your very best ideas (at least among the ones you’ve posted here).

Best of luck to Ms Clune!!

Thanks. Now I will throw you a bone. I've always admired your disdain of food porn. Well take a look at this beauty, a breakfast sandwich that will only be available at Sabres day games.

Where’s that from? Tim Hortons? (I’m on a phone and can’t see so good.)

OK if that pic didn't trigger you, I got the wrong guy. I love that it was someone's job to pull the tip of that bacon up through the sticky hole.

So I think your dislike of food pics was revealed about the time of the Great Christmas Pannie Drop circa 2017.

And they broke the bacon off because it was obscuring the logo!

Hmm. Seems possible? I have no memory of that, though.

Fwiw, 2017 was a hellacious year for me.

Please bring the young sisters back. When they sing I expect Mothra to come crashing through the roof.

This fascinating relic provides us an intricate exploration of PoMo-Millennial art that was commonly referred to as "foodporn" at the time. In particular, notice the bacon rising up triumphantly, a reborn burst of deliciousness, through the center hole of the bagel ring. Records these days are scarce, and some translations are indecipherable, but we believe this was referred to by the people of the time as a bacon glory-hole.

Notice the subtle use of shadow on the right side of the container and then deep shadow on the far right off of the brightly exposed table. This emphasizes the bagel rising up out of the darkness, led by the bacon glory-hole as a tentpole of ascendancy. What dark depths did this delicacy need to arise from? That is likely lost to time.

The bacon is also balanced by the key figure of the image -- the Buffalo -- in the upper left. As our cunning student of foodporn @Stoner noted, the bacon is broken to allow us to see the Buffalo in near entirety. This Buffalo shield is leading the charge out of the darkness, using the bacon and bagel as a springboard into triumph. But alas, there is uncertainty. The head of the animal is off-canvas! This embodies the inconclusive nature of the times. The questions of "who is really in charge here?" and "is there some phantom menace on the horizon?". The answer is to head, pun intended, and spring boldly out of the darkness, and into the light.

And there's some fries that look tasty, too.

Edit: Sorry Cami, for hijacking your thread. Hope you sing really well this season!

I hate A cappella anthems. They’re uninspiring and tend to become drawn out Americans Idol interpretations. At least add the organ. Other rinks have much better performances.

I would definitely have a heart attack if I ate that.

Mentioned to wifey she may not have a great voice but she has a nice set of lungs.  The look back said we are not impressed.  (Well, at least not both of us.  This kid was impressed.)

My wife recognized her from The Voice and said she was a good singer and very cute.  I have to agree with the Mrs, as usual.
