Shoulda got one game in
Has Kotalik shrunk? I'd swear he was bigger than that. And damn, Spacek looks old. Probably IS old...

I landed in Prague a couple of hours ago. So pumped up to be finally watching this team play in the flesh.

Have a great time. I saw them when they played an exhibition game here and it was a great time.

Deep fried. No breading.

And basically....... it's the sauce. Many imitations. Few authentic.

Think of it as food ambassidor-ship.

Buffalo is well known internationally for its superb (and unique) contributions to the epicurean pallet.
Meh. Bringing wings to Oktoberfest is like bringing a board game to Vegas. Sure you can do it but why would you.

Also Bavarians seem pretty chill about their food, but don't try this a few hundred kilometers further east. Here's a short documentary on how something like this would go in Vienna:

Say a Euro soccer club were touring the US and wanted to make some light-hearted content. I don't think any (reasonable) Buffalonian would object to their social media team showing up outside Buffalo's Wing Fest with some schnitzel or whatever for folks to sample.

It's just a silly bit of cultural exchange, not that serious...

Best answer.

Uber's a good guy. But maybe a little snobbish in the old Euro sense.....

Probably feels the same way about his beer.

Very frustrating. It's not what any of us were looking for & for me - a big personal disappointment. I'm now 0-3 in attending Sabres/Bills games.

It's too soon to panic though. They are on the right path. Can't ultimately judge them after two out of the ordinary games.

Are they? Watching those games it felt like a repeat of last year. Although I can't say our bottom 6 was the issue, that's for sure.

Ive been to 3 Sabres games in my life. A 3:0 thrashing by Minny in Buffalo and these 2 shitshow games in Prague.

FML. This team is simply brutal to its fans.

They've actually addressed team needs this offseason. For the first time in forever. The likes of Tage / Cozens didn't suddenly turn into bad players either.

They will get it right one day. That's why I assume we're all still here at least. If you don't want to have hope then you probably have nothing at this point.

Some needs. There's still 2 huge glaring ones (Top 6 / Top 4 defenseman) Cozens has been bad for about 365 days now is my issue. I'm not sure he's a 2C.

Hang in there.

Atmosphere in the arena today didn't seem anywhere near yesterdays. Guess it was the earlier start + not being the opening game. Certainly saw less Sabres fans as well.
