Wild fan coming in peace…again 👋
Once again looking for a shot glass bet on tonight’s game.
If Buffalo wins, I’ll send you a Wild shot glass. If Minnesota wins, you’ll send me a Sabres shot glass. The goal is to collect one from every team. I’m a little over half way there.
I lost to u/erock23233 last time these teams played. They can confirm that I’m not a sore loser and I’m good for my end of the bet.
Any takers?
All my friends that are into hockey are Minnesota Wild fans.
Plz Sabres, I can’t handle the shit talking on a Saturday.. please win lol
(This isn’t true but it worked Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday so why risk it)
Happy bi-annual celebration day over at /r/thebuffalowildwings
As a Buffalo fan that lives in MN…..LETS GOOOOOOO
Can’t believe we are blessed with a Sabres game tonight
Would be nice to end the trip on a win but I wonder if this will be like Seattle after the western Canada trip when we finally lost some steam
This is for the ones of fans out there that cross over. Daytona 24 hour and some Sabres hockey. Today is a good day
LFG
sweeping this road trip would be nuts.
Any MN Sabres fans heading to St Paul tonight? I’m going by myself and would love to meet up!
I feel like every game is either 8:00 or later, or randomly 1:00pm on a Saturday.
Can we just get 7:00 start times again? At this point I’d be fine if the regular season was just us playing the Metro and the Atlantic.
LETS FUCKIN KILL EM
