Give this 10 games!

In general I agree.
however, there's are some disappointing realities that seem to be inherent with Sabres teams...except under no-system-Ted-Nolan's teams...
Compete levels are underwhelming
Leadership challenges
Too many skill need, but low hockey IQ players

Add in a roster or aging Vets with big money contracts, and the promises extended to fans for suffering multiple seasons has wilted significantly.
I like Botts and Housley
, I do think it is good long term ... but do we need to suffer for a couple more seasons to realize the bene's?
I think so.

What's bullsh!t is that it's a Sabres home game, they gave us an Amerks game as a replacement.

I thought season ticket holders already got presale codes for this game. At least, I know a coworker did.

I am going to try on Ticketmaster at 10 today.

Vividseats is secondary market. Ticketmaster is selling them today normal sale at 10. The prices won't be that high. They'll still be high, but not like that.

yeah thats absolutely ridiculous. $500 for anything with a viewing angle

on the bright side it will probably only be like $150 for parking

When I heard "$500 for anything with a viewing angle" I thought this convo was about something totally different

It was a pretty good one.

But it’s true, when I offered to buy my daughter a cooper she didn’t want it because she said they are too cutesy and girlish.

- Der Kaiser


I had a 2015 Cooper S and totaled it. Wasn't a cutesy or girlish, but they aren't that great in the snow, even with blizzaks. Too light.

Meh, she probably wants a pickup or 4 door Jeep with a lightbar. You know, to play in the mud with. Sounds like Gerbe's style. The mud playing that is.

The countdown to the end of the Botts/Housley era is already in effect for the same time frame.

Well, I could have got 4 tickets for $856 in the 500 level at Shea. Almost pulled the trigger thinking I could resell. I will commit that.
