Thanks for the link. Yes, he is very good. The Buffalo News has become really basic and dull on Sabres. There is just nothing that elevates their reporting. It's so rare.

In not sure where to put this.
The NHL is making it hard to watch hockey.
Sabres play 23 games in October and November. Because of blackout restrictions and other networks I'm able to watch 13 of those (live) with my ESPN + subscription.
Does anyone know if an ESPN game is also carried on + live? I can't remember.

"Eric Cartman?"
Put this here because I didn't see anything in the around-the-NHL thread. Maybe it was in the prior thread. It's a national broadcast thing, not local, but I guess it fits best on theme. Steve Levy / Gretzky with a video tribute.

Did Fairburn get let go from The Athletic? He hasn't had anything published since July 11th. His X handle says he's the Sabres reporter for them still. He's doing a sh!tty job if he's still employed...

I think he and his wife had a baby. And there really isn't much to report on right now.

Just leaving this lame piece of work by The Buffalo News (on-line):
“I love Krebsy,” said Thompson. “He works his (butt) off. Very deserving. ... I liked his confidence. He gets an opportunity to play, and he’s not afraid to make plays.”

Yeah, it was definitely nuts in the post-game and the uncensored quote is in the Athletic.
I'd agree it's sort of a lame censor, but TBN coverage probably has more significant flaws to fix than mixing up players' nether regions.
