The Sabres at Sea

The Sabres at Sea

Hey Guys, I really feel bad about not posting in awhile.  For those of you who don’t follow me on Twitter, I got an e-mail from the company I sail with two weeks ago Thursday, flew out to Seattle last Wednesday, and have been putting in some crazy hours on the Mighty Mitch to get her ready to leave this Wednesday (if the Sea Gods

Reasons Ryan Miller Rocks

Reasons Ryan Miller Rocks

Hey All, This is something that I’ve had kicking around in my head for quite some time, and now that the rest of the world has been introduced to Ryan Miller, I felt it was time to dust it off, polish it up, and share. To those of us in Western New York, Ryan has always been one of the elite on the Sabres squad.

Sabres Couldn’t Stop the Senators

Sabres Couldn’t Stop the Senators

Hey All, Man, I was hoping to be able to write a blog about how the Sabres stopped the Sens in their tracks, both in their now 10 game winning streak, and 4th win when facing Buffalo this season.  It would’ve been a great win for the guys, not only to regain some momentum to get themselves out of the current slump, but because it’s

The Sabres in the New Year

The Sabres in the New Year

Hey All, Sorry again about the delay, life seems to keep getting in the way of hockey… which is not acceptable!  In the month since I’ve written last the Sabres have been top notch, and I don’t know where to begin.  I could easily go on yet another up beat rant about how great the team has been, how amazing the season has been, praise the play of Ryan Miller

My Love Affair with the Sabres

My Love Affair with the Sabres

Hey Guys, Sorry it’s been awhile since my last post, December has been almost as crazy for me as it has been for my team.  Minus the being stuck on dry land part, which I’m still adapting to.  Anyways, the last week and a half has been a whirlwind, from being shut down by Marty and the Devils (Congrats to him by the way!!) to  Miller getting his own shut

Buffalo Sabres – Stunning the Opposition

Buffalo Sabres – Stunning the Opposition

Hey All, So it’s been a rough week for me, doesn’t look like the Antarctica job is going to happen, and so in the mean time I’m stuck on dry land watching hockey.  I know, it’s a tough life I lead.  Thankfully for me, being stuck couldn’t have happened at a better time.  I’m not exactly sure what was said to the Sabres to get

Buffalo Sabres Stop the Skid

Buffalo Sabres Stop the Skid

Friday’s game against the Flyers, and tonight’s game against the Hurricanes could not have been more different.  The game against the Flyers was an all out battle on the ice with both teams playing with emotion and determination.  There were some big hits, including Kaleta’s hit against Ross, which earned him a two game suspension, and plenty of fights.  Rivet and Carcillo couldn’t stop going after each other, and Carcillo

The Sabres Slide

The Sabres Slide

So it’s another game, and another loss for the Sabres.  As Ed Kilgore on WGRZ put it, they appear to be in a free fall.  Again, it’s early in the season, and early to panic, but now comes a time fans have learned to dread.  The Sabres have gotten off to great starts in the past two years, only to go into a slide and never fully regain their momentum.

The Redeeming Sabres

The Redeeming Sabres

Hey all, So originally I was going to post something right after the Sabres/Panthers game on Wednesday. But there wasn’t much positive to write. Instead, I decided to take a step back, see what folks were saying over the web, chat with my friend Erica, call the Dad, and then post something today depending on how tonight’s game against the Bruins went. Most of what was said

A Pirate and A Sabres Fan

A Pirate and A Sabres Fan

Hey All, Figured I’d introduce myself to the Puckdrop community. As a Sabres fan since practically birth I’m excited about this chance to share my love of them, and hockey in general, with everyone. Although I grew up in WNY, in a little town south of Buffalo, I currently live in Jersey, and spend a good majority of the year as the second in command on a charter
