Sabres Play In Hockeyville Tonight
Sep 23, 2008 NHL
Buffalo had their first pre-season game last night, a 7-4 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs (the game where all the fans got in ‘free’). The next game is tonight, in little Roberval, Quebec. It’s the Kraft ‘Hockeyville’ game against the Canadiens. Should be watchable on the NHL Network here in the US, CBC otherwise.
By the way, I will have photos from our trip to Puck Drop, just haven’t had much uninterrupted time lately.

Sabres Preseason Schedule
Jul 23, 2008 NHL
Sabres.com has the preseason schedule up, including a game against the Canadiens in the city that won CBC’s Hockeyville contest (Roberval, Quebec). Annoyed here as usual that the Sabres seem to play every game away, only 2 of the 7 games are at home (not calling a Habs game in Quebec neutral site). Two preseason games versus the Leafs, maybe making up for two less during the season? I’d rather be rid of them, as their toolbag fans might ruin the normally kid-friendly preseason games.
