[LGR4GM]

Idk if anyone knows this but the Sabres play this afternoon in Seattle. 

[CallawaySabres]

I'll choose rewatching the Bills game over this one. Could be 13 points from 8th after today? Go Team

[DarthEbriate]

No work today!

I'm helping a friend move in the morning, then skedaddling to grab some overpriced arena lunch and a beer and watch the Sabres blow a lead in person.

 

Moving + Sabres game? I must have self-destructed.

[Pimlach]

I was thinking it was tonight, this is timely info.  

 I will finish my chores, then do my work out, and then watch the game.  

I hope they play hard in front of Levi.

If somehow, someway you could unknowingly walk barefoot over some Lego pieces, that would be the hat trick.

At least the arena experience will be better.  And, the crowd should be into it!  And, there should be a crowd!

Speaking of hat tricks, this'll be the third time Levi can save us!

I think we all know the kid can’t save us.  In just hope he is supported and the team stops regressing.

His idol is Qui-Gon, not Obi Wan and we know that Obi Wan was the only hope.

[K-9]

Hmm, do I watch the Sabres or a Gilligan’s Island re-run? As if there’s a real choice to be made. Gilligan it is! 

Although I think the Sabres will be on their own version of a three hour cruise.

Speaking of gingers, anyone have Soupy's hyperhidrosis commercial? That was the best.

When we do get a full house it is usually due to the fact that the opponent's fan base has taken over the arena. The sphynx owner should be asked about the embarrassing oddity of having more fans rooting for the opposition than the home team. It would be pointless to ask that question because he doesn't speak. He's too busy tinkering with his broken toy. What a freaking pathetic situation!

[steveoath]

I’ll have it on in the background, but not expecting much. 

[pi2000]

ok I'll watch

[7+6=13]

I'll be watching.  I enjoy the games even though we're not where we hoped in the standings.  I find myself watching for different reasons than I used to.

[OverPowerYou]

Don’t need the negative vibes today. Go bills 

[sabresouth]

Haven't missed a game all season. Glutton for punishment. Guess I'll watch this one too 

[spndnchz]

I’m watching. If only to evaluate players and coaches.

…and just in case anyone is wondering, it’s Mary Ann for me….every day, all day.

Buckeyes are playing for a NC. I will pay no mind to this game.

Why? At this point they are so far out of it the worst thing for them would be a late season run that gives the illusion everything will be okay. 

I'd rather it got so bad now that Pegula has no choice but to fire everybody just for the optics of next year hope. Of course I do realize the new hires would probably be bad decisions too but until that happens I can hope they finally decide to turn it over to experienced hockey people and get rid of this clown show of assistants that they made Ruff keep. EVERYBODY needs to be fired. EVERYBODY.

Why?  Because winning breeds winning.  Why do they have to stay at rock bottom?  How is that going to help the players we think can be saved and can help in the future?  I want Levi supported properly because he might be part of the future.  

People have been saying all these things in bold for too many years.  All it does is add to the losing culture.  

I know they are too far out of it to make the playoffs.  That is not happening.  But why do we need to crash and burn?

When was the last time winning in the second half of the season bred winning in the fall?

Kozak will be back.  I'm pretty confident of that.
