GDT: Sabres vs Leafs - 15 April 2025 - Its Game Day. I'll Be There. I might be drunk in Toronto right now

I just really wanted to do the GDt for the first Sabres game I will ever be at in person. Please ignore the fact I'm smashed, hoping to sober up in Toronto before making my way down tomorrow.

This is the best intro you get. I'm amped to be there regardless of how the last 14 seasons have been going.

I'll no doubt look on this with some disgust tomorrow morning.
Here's hoping there is no need to look on the Sabres with disgust this evening, and they deliver you a win in your home debut!
I can't be the only person on here who just assumed KiwiGriff was a Canisius alum, right?
Most of us thought the same until he clarified a couple years ago.
A six pack and 1/2 a pack of marlboro for the game Griff , just like the good ole days!! :thumbu:

Pretty sure that's a Canada Dry ginger ale next to HHOF'er Lorne "Gump" Worsley.
If it was Terry Sawchuk, I'd suspect the beer.

spiked with a shot of Canadian Club, but I meant for you per Chains message:D

some of us "might" remember our high school coach letting us have a beer after a big win ahem (statute of limitations ;)

Ok. I'm alive. Staying up writing stupid shit online while I tried to sober up was the smart choice. Only running on 4 hours' sleep though.

In Buffalo now.

If they have any sense or long-term memory, they're already paranoid about the playoffs.
outside Scotiabank yesterday, there was a guy set up with a desk, a speaker and one of those "Change My Mind" boards. Me and my buddies assumed itd be something controversial ... well it was, but only for Toronto. The sign said "The Jets Will Go Further in the Playoffs than the Leafs this year." My mate from Ottawa wanted to get into the chat, but we were starving.
I think that since Griff is part of his board name, and Canisius shortened nickname is the Griffs, he has a natural affinity to the team named after the mythical half eagle/half lion Griffin (or Gryphon). Hence the tie in with Canisius.
Respect to any team called the Griffs. There's not much behind the username really. My name isn't Griff, but it's been what people have called me since I was about 8.
I can't be the only person on here who just assumed KiwiGriff was a Canisius alum, right?
Yeah, it might be time to update the handle on the board. Its been brought up a couple of times.

Right. Almost time to go smash some wings before the game. Ranch dressing is the choice of the locals right?

For your pre-game amusement

-Has not discussed extension with Tuch yet

Gabe's Gate. Great suggestion to those of you that have posted that over the years.

And yes I know there is only one dip for wings and it isn't ranch :) Kiwi humor is dry sarcasm. It's amusing watching it fall flat here.
Good wings spot. And a short walk (stumble for you) to the free light rail to Keybank.

Good choice, I like Wingnutz better but harder locations to get to
