So the real Panthers this time. We can see if the Sabres can compete with that or not. 

The Florida weak spot is their D so I firmly believe the best way to beat them is at their own game and that's a heavy and relentless forecheck. Not sure we can do that, but I'd like to see it. 

More than a win (which of course would be great) I want to see us compete and not back down from this team. Show us that the Sabres are a real hockey team this year and not to be taken lightly. I hope that happens.

Gonna miss this one celebrating our anniversary.  Yes I found someone just as broken as me.  A Dozen years in the books.  Hopefully I’ll live to see another dozen. 

Married whoopee!

(srsly, congrats)

I want to see them play a lazy game and win anyway.  😉

Feels like a big one even before Halloween. A win gives the Sabres two against the champs already and some decent cred. 5-4-1 for 11 points is not good enough, but close enough to a playoff pace as to be intriguing. A loss puts us under water and at just a 74 ish point pace at the 10 game Scotty Bowman Memorial Benchmark.

Yes I've massaged the importance of this game to an engorged, throbbing level, far beyond any one game's possible meaning.

Alas, I said it feels like a big one.

7th place in the conference, I'm back....for now 🤪

Hopefully Washington comes back to earth drops from the top 8.

Boston looking to move into the top 8. Tampa, Buffalo and Toronto hold the 3 spots in our division at spots 6, 7 and 8. 

I believe Buffalo to be better than all the teams below us (we'll see about Boston.) A win tonight, although not likely, would really boost a fanbase that is just waiting for the bottom to drop out. Even with a loss, just winning 3 out of 5 games the rest of the way may just get it done. 

Keep us interested Sabes, just KEEP US INTERESTED!

You can't massage something until it's engorged in a public forum. You do that one time on a Metro Bus and everyone gets all "Look at that 41 year old weirdo in the trench coat at the back of the bus"

I missed Saturday but any reason why Kulich should be the one scratched over Quinn or Laff?

Size and experience is first and foremost. 
 

Quinn maybe starts goal scoring streak?

Any reason there's a roster of officials taped behind Lindy?

To get their correct names when he questions them.  
 

You want someone to listen to you calling him, use his name.
