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 [...] This is, frankly, amazing to me. I AGAIN wrote this team off completely, still cheering for them, but kind of hoping they’d get an awesome draft pick and clean house. They made some solid deadline moves, pulling in a great player for the future, getting another 1st round pick, and so on. How could [...] The Buffalo Sabres beat the Boston Bruins. Badly. They tried two goalies, both of who allowed 3 goals. The Bruins took a bunch of stupid penalties. When they couldn’t solve Ryan Miller, they tried to get dirty. That didn’t work, either. Buffalo stood in and took the physical pounding, and won the game. My positives: Ville [...] Getting set up in the pressbox for tonight’s visit from Martin Biron and the New York Rangers. It’s the Sabres’ first game against the Rangers, and Jhonas Enroth gets the call after Miller played in the win last night. Leino comes back from his suspension, but Hecht (‘lower body’) and Corey Tropp (concussion) are [...] I’ll admit it, I quit watching this game after the second period, listening to it in the background. I picked it back up partway through the third, just in time to see Stafford tie it. This game went from an easy win for Buffalo after the first, even if they give up that late [...] Buffalo played Jhonas Enroth in both back to back games this weekend, and won both by one goal. It certainly won’t mute the vocal minority who are now thinking that maybe Enroth should be the one to get 50-60 games this year. I don’t think that’s what is happening here, Ruff is giving Ryan [...] Hmm, so not only do we have former Flyer Ville Leino centering the first line, but Roy is at the point on the power play, with Gragnani out of the equation. Might we get a Mike Weber sighting? Lindy wouldn’t say, but it wouldn’t be a huge surprise. The Flyers come in without Danny Briere [...] The Sabres play the Lightning again tonight, at home this time after getting their hats handed to them by the same team on the road. Tyler Ennis cut his hair and got hurt…coincidence? I think not. Anyway, it does leave Buffalo an interesting option – move Ville Leino to the wing and play Hecht at [...] |
