Carcillo VS Dorsett - BADASS
Nov 28, 2008 NHL
Click through to YouTube to see it in High Quality mode. If you like hockey fights at ALL, you owe to yourself to watch this one, despite the teams featured (Columbus and Phoenix). Huge bombs were getting landed by both guys, just when you thought one was taking control, the other would come over the top and start landing. Good job, boys. H/T to Hockeyfights.

Canadiens at Sabres for Home Opener
Jul 16, 2008 NHL
The Sabres report that their first regular season opponent will be the Montreal Canadiens on October 10th. Also mentioned are the three ‘at-large’ games, wherein Buffalo faces off against Detroit, Anaheim and Phoenix. And just to review:
This season, the NHL has revised its scheduling format. Each team will continue to play an 82-game schedule, but the breakdown of opponents has changed. Each team will play their divisional opponents six times (24 games in total), four games against each non-divisional conference opponent (40 games in total), one game against each of the 15 non-conference opponents and three “at large” games.
Rest of the sched tomorrow.

NBA Jumps on the Outdoor Game Bandwagon
Feb 20, 2008 NBA
The Phoenix Suns and Denver Nuggets are going to play a preseason game outside next year, at a tennis venue in Indian Wells, CA. The only other time the Association has played outside was back in 1972, with two games in Puerto Rico. The October 11th game will be shown on TNT, and tickets for the 16,100 seat arena will range from $10 to $100.
This should be a bit easier to carry out logistically speaking, as they don’t have to worry about freezing anything. I hope it’s played in the evening, though, Shaq just might collapse on the court if it’s too hot. Wait, he doesn’t run that hard anyway. Never mind.

It started so well…
Jan 23, 2008 NHL
It’s been a few days since I’ve posted about the Sabres, partly because I haven’t gotten to watch much of the games. I DID see the awesome beatdown of the Thrashers, and was all set for that to be the beginning of a dominant stretch.
Never mind.
I was unable to listen to the rest of the last game against the Coyotes, thanks to Kevin Sylvester calling a bunch of soft goals. My thought was the Sabres would win one of these two before the break, and break off some wins on some weaker teams afer. They can still do that, but Dallas is a tougher nut to crack than Phoenix, Bryzgalov or no Bryzgalov.
