You are dead on my friend, the network’s have bastardized a great tradition that our game once had! When I was a child I remember straining to watch Hockey Night In Canada on a portable TV. Nowadays even the intermission loops on broadcasts have become stale and tedious. I long for the days of Ward Cornell,Brian McFarland, Howie Meeker and Dave Hodge.Not the milk toast we’re fed today!

All good. I figured the correct form of the word was probably something you haven’t seen in a long time. Hell, I can’t even remember the last time I saw it, and I’m probably a few years younger than you.
Plus the correct way looks wrong. Because English is a mutt language
. I feel bad for our Russian and Polish friends when they translate, because I’m sure there’s plenty of words where their translation service just decides to go to bed.Thanks my friendAll good.

Hi Everyone, Long time lurker who just joined.
I coming asking for forgiveness as I may be the reason for the Sabers woes over the past 10 years. I grew up a diehard Hartford Whaler fan. When they were stolen from us and taken to Carolina I stopped following hocky.
10 years ago we moved to the Buffalo area and I jumped on the Sabers bandwagon with both feet.
Unfortunately, I think I must of been a very bad person in a past life as once I started following the Sabers they became the Whalers incarnate ( minus the 2 good seasons we had)
Anyway, brighter times are ahead and while I don't share the history that many of you have, It will be extra sweet having lived threw the last decade of incomitance when the eventually do hoist the cup!

How dare you insult the best mask in Detroit Jr. Whalers and Hartford Whalers history?!?!
Howie Hodge
Zombie Woof
And let's add Bob Goldham, Dick Irvin Jr., Red Storey, and Dick Beddoes to the list!
They really were entertaining guys back then!
(I guess my user name might tip that off....)
I wait with baited breath as to following the Sabres this season! I am fortunate to be able to see all their games on TV which looks to be a very exciting campaign! Alas my poor Habs will not be as impelling for it looks like a repeat of last season. Hopefully we have at least 1 30 goal scorer! In the words of the late Pocket Rocket Henri Richard “Maybe, Maybe not “.
Hello there, I hope it's ok for me to post here. I do normally live on HFOil since it is my main team but got the Sabres as my close 2nd team now. I was lurking a lot already in this sub and over the summer saw some highlights from Jack Quinn and I just kinda fell in love with the team. Stupid sexy Jack Quinn.
Also rooting hard for Power and Levi. The team has a lot of likeable players and that's something that matters to me.
You're also one of the most passionate fanbases and I'll never forget the infamous phone call.

Typical bandwagon fan, jumping on board just because the team is good.

I know you're joking but I swear I did absolutely not check on your team's prospects and decide to hop on early before everybody else does lolTypical bandwagon fan, jumping on board just because the team is good.
Welcome!
Thx!

Other than ska, which I can take or leave, I like the music choices. Welcome!
Be as cynical of this team as you (possibly?) were of the Oilers during their dark period and you’ll fit in
Thank you
Had a great first game tonight. You seem like a great bunch and am looking forward to the season.
In regards to Ska. It really depends which sub genre I'm going to. There is that poppy Ska which I cannot for the life of me enjoy and there is the more edgier Ska which I like a lot more.

I can take the “punk” side of the poppy ska, but not the cheesy side of it. Although the weirdest is the hardcore side of ska, ala A Billion Ernies

Followed suit with the Sabres even though I rarely get to watch a Sabres game live down here. Extremely limited knowledge of a lot aspects of the sport so take it easy on me if I state something wrong
