I’m certainly not going to tell you not to react poorly when your favorite team plays poorly – it’s an understandable reaction. The short season makes every game feel important right from the get-go, so losing points hurts. Still, it’s worth looking at the big picture here. This season is one tenth over – [...]

It’s been a whirlwind to start the season, with games packed in together right from the start after a very short camp. It went well for the Sabres, though, with two wins in two tries, and some worries relieved about the situation at center. Buffalo had a day off yesterday, so too should we [...] It wasn’t always pretty, but the Buffalo Sabres pulled away from the Philadelphia Flyers and won 5-2 today at First Niagara Center. Thomas Vanek was in on every goal, scoring 2 of them, and Steve Ott scored in his first game. Tyler Myers and Cody Hodgson had the other tallies. It felt like Buffalo [...] It sure was fun to type that title, and it’ll be even better to watch the game. Let’s put the lockout in the rear view and enjoy the Sabres being back on the ice. I won’t be at the game, though I will still be trying to get into the press box several times [...] The extremely short training camp is on for your Buffalo Sabres, and as it begins, there are five players I’m going to be watching with interest: Mikhail Grigorenko – We may not see for more than a few games this season, thanks to junior eligibility, but he’s a big-time player at a position of [...] If you’re like me, and you tuned out the NHL a bit since the end of last year thanks to lockout shenanigans, you may be a bit fuzzy on some of the details surrounding the Sabres as they currently stand. Here’s a handy list you can refer to, to help with your water cooler [...] You know, I didn’t sleep well last night, as you can tell by my 3am tweet on my non-hockey Twitter account about the movie Sahara. I considered staying up for a while to see if anything was truly going to happen with CBA negotiations. Nah, I thought – it might get done within the [...] So, yeah, lockout. I find myself particularly unmoved by either side of the equation this time around. I can never understand how the negotiations move so slowly, always start later than seems logical, involve only a few actual meetings, and seem to treat an actual deadline as something of a suggestion. Both can say [...] Hey, this thing is still here! I’ve been quiet on the Sabres blogging front here, because aside from the Dev Camp scrimmage, little of interest has been happening in these parts. And looming over everything is the potential lockout. I started out fairly positive that things would be resolved mostly on time. The words [...] The Sabres have made some moves. They usually do this time of year, especially since Pegula bought the team. The theme so far has been to get tougher. John Scott, a feared fighter (murdersaurus!) who will probably see limited action, was the first signing of FA for Buffalo. More intriguing is the trade, sending [...] |
What IS a blockbuster trade?
