If all true positive Sabres fans who couldn't be there had $20 for each Sabres fan that is there tonight and represents, now that would be special. That would be envied.

As a Sabres fan from Ontario, these nights are the hardest. The TV coverage is disgustingly disrespectful of the great city of Buffalo. Tonight I am cheering for the Sabres AND the Sabre fans that are standing up for the crest.

The Sabres are STILL too young. There are only 3 players on Finland's 4 Nations Faceoff team younger than Luukkonen. There are 2 players on Sweden younger than Dahlin.

@sabresprospects.bsky.social @matthewfairburn.bsky.social emergency Baker Fairburn Hockey Show? Can someone shine the bat signal? We need to talk.

The Sabres can't survive Cozens, Quinn and Peterka all in scoring droughts.

Sabres need to win a FO, esp'y on the PP. Kulich is their best FO guy, and PP2 doesn't seem to know how to use him. If Kulich goes to PP1 so that PP1 gets some possession time, who goes to PP2? Cozens?

Sabres do black better than the Canucks ever did. Happy Black Friday!

Thrilled the Sabres broke thru a significant barrier last night. Tonight the Sabres go for the real thing. Getting over Clarence Campbell 500 is what gets you to the playoffs. Colin Campbell 500 is just cheap makeup.

For what its worth, I think Lindy and the Sabres should go 11/7 in Philly if Greenway can't play. Bring Jokiharju in. If we go up by 2 or 3, ease up on 26, 25, 4. If we go down by 2, ease up on 8, 75.

Gilles Meloche hangs in for the win!

Sabres ragging the puck to get to the OT 4v3 perfect against a Western team. Don't do it against Ottawa, Detroit, etc.

If the ultimate goal is to get Levi games, and have Reimer as a permanent backup, here is how the Amerks and Sabres schedules mesh for Nov and Dec.

It's not about "making the playoffs." According to Jets' GM Cheveldayoff, it's about "eliminating 8 teams." Maybe a subtle difference, but that strikes me as the mindset of a team who takes ownership of where it's heading. Sabres 3 game win streak was good, but bookends Ls to Det and Mtl hurts.

Sabres lose. 5v5 shots for the whole game: Habs 13 Sabres 10

Went back to watch Tage's first (only) shift of period 2. Some contact. Nothing hard, maybe some twisting. Hard to guess what the issue is.

How quickly things change. Cozens and Quinn on the ice 4v3. A week ago, they were more likely to be sitting.

McLeod, Zucker and Caufield will never make it as D-men. 1-1.

Looking forward to following the discussion of today's Sabres matinee here on Bluesky
