I was at the game and I was a little upset with some of the fans in sec 307. Other than the clear cheering. People hoping for offsides every shift etc was a bit annoying.
Ive tried to watch these games as a fan of hockey rather than just a Sabres fan. Mike Smith made soem real nice saves so I was cheering for him in that regards. Again all will be forgotten once the season ends.
HOnestly the highlight of the night was the legitiamate 10 sitting in my section was very easy on the eyes thoughout the game lol

My type of lady.

Too bad she knows nothing about hockey. What's cute is she's trying.

She played college hockey, she knows more about hockey than Melrose. She was a goalie too and believe it or not most goalies turn out to be really good coaches because they know the game very well.

Believe me, I'm on board as anyone. However, nothing about yesterday felt right. I thought about going to the game, in large part because I had a few friends that were going, but I ended up working late instead (comes with the territory this time of year). I still followed, and went into our break room to catch the game every once in a while. Nothing about it seemed right. I'm not "ashamed" of rooting for them to lose, but something didn't sit right with me when the likes of Jeremy White come out and say they had no qualms about it whatsoever. A couple friends who went to the game told me afterwards that it was definitely the strangest game they've ever experienced. Right now, for me, it's frustration that we've even got to this point.

I also do think this will put a mark on us. I don't think it will be too big of a deal, but I do think we will garner a little bit of a reputation for this, the same way Philadelpha fans are known for booing Santa. Ultimately, you can laugh about it, but I'd rather that not be us.

Apparently you are not aloud to feel this way because:
A) You are not a real fan.
B) You are an idiot.
C) You just dont know what is the best for this team.
D) You dont make millions and the players do (????)
E) All the above

When he says "Practice" fight...is that like when Rob Ray used to teach Matt Barnaby how to fight back in the day?

Maybe Booth is teaching Phyllis how to fight for when he sees Johnny boy again....lol

I wish I could not get mad. The Boston game was the first time I legitimately was angry we won. If we could just lock this thing up, I'm ready and willing to start being happy for wins again.
- TheSabresTaco


I'll admit, I have gotten irritated about it, but I won't say mad. The Boston game, as irritated as I was, I couldn't be mad that Risto scored that goal. Seeing his development continue and seeing him really become a force on the backend has been a treat.

To me the more maddening situation is all these people hoping to lose for someone they know nothing about all they know is that hes a generational player but im sure they have never seen Erie or BU play a game all year.

I love seeing our young talent do well. Risto's shot and Ennis' goal from last night were fantastic. I want Grigo to succeed. Larsson, Zadorov, Girgensons of course. With guys like them scoring, it comes with mixed emotions.. big picture it's terrible for the organization if they're scoring the GWG but it's great to see them growing their games. Like I said. I can't wait to cheer for wins again.

I would bet my entire life savings that those who were anti tank will have a mc d or eich jersey and on top of that will boast how they wanted the tank all along.

If I could waste the next 24 hours of my life "liking" a comment, it would be this. Some of the comments I've read this morning are so insane/crazy, I almost spit out my coffee (and I wasn't even drinking any).

I never realized if you aren't born in Buffalo and stay for your entire life that you can never ever have an opinion that matters.

Also, Weber was literally the one person who had no right to make those comments like he did last night. His actions ended up costing that team the OT winner with his dumb penalty. For him to make those comments really made me cringe. If it came from any other player I would have understood, but from him was actually comical.

He goes way too far off of the edge.
The guy is an embarrassment and I am embarrassed that he has a voice to speak on my behalf acting the way he does on air.
Top it all of, he was not even born here.
Only lived here for half of his life, same as White.
WGR needs to put some personalities in that studio that are at least listenable.
Those two are no longer that.

- BuffaloHardHat

I really don't see why that is worth bringing up, or repeating. He's been here a while, longer than many people who listen to the show.

What's the statute of limitations for buying a Sabres jersey after moving?

In my life, I've been away from Buffalo for about 9 years. Should I start counting from when I moved back?

Someone who was born here but moved to Boston when they were, like, 6 years old. Are they actually Sabres fans, or just sell-outs?

I wasn't born in Nashville so I shouldn't have an opinion on living here... Living here 10 years is irrelevant.

#Sabres Coach Ted Nolan: Tyler Ennis will make the trip with us out west. Possible he could return Monday in Arizona, but we'll see.

What irks me about Weber is that your tell me Mike that if you were idk an actual good D man and people wanted you, that ou would stay here in Buffalo cause your loyal to the team over getting paid extra money somewhere else...... please mike youd be on the first bus out of town if someone wanted to pay you more.

Eh, they're the one team that IS actually tanking. Toronto had playoff hopes this year. They go on an early losing streak and things look doom and gloom, then they start winning again and pop back into playoff contention. Then, news comes out they get the green light to "scorch earth" and start losing like the Sabres. They claim they're rebuilding and sell off spare parts at the deadline.

Where is the media calling them out for tanking? What the Leafs are doing is tanking. If they were rebuilding they wouldve gotten rid of Lupul, JVR, Kessel, Phanuef, Bernier at the deadline. No. They are tanking. They kept the valuable pieces they had and are purposely not giving a damn in order to lose and get better lottery odds in hopes for McDavid. Because if they do get McDavid, they got the pieces to be a threat. It couldnt have been more obvious than when the Sabres played them a week ago or so. Their players didnt give one poop about the game.
