Free Agency and the Sabres

Okay, so free agency begins tomorrow, and the Sabres are poised to…watch, as usual. Buffalo almost never moves on day 1, and Darcy has stated he’s more likely to work some trades as he doesn’t like the free agent pricing. I don’t honestly blame him – how many of these big day 1 [...]

Getting to Know Zack Kassian

The Sabres took RW Zack Kassian with their first round pick in the NHL Entry Draft last night (13th overall)…so who is he? Well, he’s 6′3″, 205 pounds, and played for the Peterborough Petes the past two seasons. According to his profile at Hockey’s Future, he gained a bit of notoriety for hitting [...]

Camping Adventures: Lost Tires, Rainstorms and Lots of Children, Part 2

So, when we left off, there was a decision to make. We had only made it maybe 40 miles or so from home, and the weekend was more than half over. But Thomas desperately wanted to see his cousins, so off we went. Things still weren’t any better, as the rains turned [...]

Camping Adventures: Lost Tires, Rainstorms and Lots of Children, Part 1

If you’re a longtime reader of mine (either here or in the forums, for those select few), you probably already know that I don’t like camping. I am not what you call an outdoorsy guy…if you’ve seen the episode of Monk where he exclaims “There’s NATURE on me!”, I’m not too far off [...]

Congratulations Penguins

I’ve tried to get in here to make this post a few times now, but life keeps getting in the way. Specifically the part where people are in from out of town, the brakes try their darnedest to fail on your van, and oh yeah, you burn your hands on a pot on the [...]

Stupid Boycotts Make Me Laugh

As everyone who follows hockey knows, Jim Balsillie and the NHL have been wrangling over control of the Phoenix Coyotes so he can ship ‘em up the road to Hamilton. He’s previously tried to buy and move the Preds, and even made an offer to BTG for the Sabres. The Buffalo Sabres organization [...]

Penguins Force Game Seven

The home team held court once again, as the Pittsburgh Penguins beat the Detroit Red Wings 2-1 last night. I actually got to watch part of it, it really looked like the Pens were going to run over the Wings early. Detroit could only muster 3 shots on goal in the first period, [...]
