    West coast road games have been our bread and butter. Sounds like Granato put them through the ringer yesterday (deservedly) so wonder if they’ll be a little tired today. Even if they are, they looked like a team that hadn’t played in 2 weeks last game so it will be worth it in the long run.

    A late game for me means waking up at 3:04am to take a piss and checking if we won or not.

    I just wish PT/MT timezone games started at least two hours earlier than the current schedule permits.

    10:30 is so late. I’ll have to watch it with my morning coffee the day after.

    Perfect timing for some Sabres After Dark™

    Let’s get back on track and into a WC spot

  5. WorthPlease

    What a schedule this is. All-star break followed by a bye week then a 12:30 game and then 10pm road trip.

    I might not see a Sabres game for three weeks.
