Dudes ... DUDES. I just had the best burger I've ever eaten in my 52 year old life. So the other day, I hear about this joint in West Seneca that won "Best Overall Food Item" at last weeks Taste Of Buffalo ... Stack Burger in West Seneca. So I just got back from there and felt compelled to tell everyone about the best burger I've ever eaten - their Hangover Burger. SO GOOD ! When describing a good burger, rarely do you start by saying "it was the bun that made the difference". Their brioche bun was the best I've ever had...so tasty ! The meat was fresh, the cheese was excellent, the sunny side egg was perfect, the bacon was awesome...crispy and huge, and the hash browns were hot as hell and perfectly done. The entire thing is made right there and fresh and comes out piping hot. I ate it in the car, as it's takeout only (there were 2 picnic tables outside, but they were wet due to the rain). Holy F was that burger flavorful - so much so that I went back in after eating and yelled : "OMG that was EFFING AWESOME .... I'll be back again...God damn was was good" and I left.
Damn I want another one. Everyone, head to Stack Burger if you haven't been there yet. It's a hole in the wall, but whatever. Try it out ! You won't be disappointed. - kritter65
Nothing beats In n out Burger
That has to be the best hamburger in the world sorry
Alex Nylander is starting in Buffalo. The only way he will not, is if he's inured. It doesn't even matter if he's not great in camp. He's going to get every opportunity and probably 20-25 games to prove he belongs.

I'm sensing a Stack Burger owner covering as a HockeyBuzz poster. - IonSabres
Ha ! After reading my post, I was thinking "jeez, I sound like the owner or a worker for the place". Nope, it was so damn good that as soon as I got home, I typed all of that. Like many of us here, i'm just a food lover. A few weeks ago in here, I asked everyone for BBQ in/near Cheektowaga (since my favorite restaurant, Kentucky Gregs closed). Still looking for that, by the way ! Someone suggested the place in Lewiston ... gotta try that, but again, i'm looking for BBQ in the Cheektowaga area, 'cuz i'm old and lazy. Smokin' Little Diner in Depew wasn't too bad, but they don't have brisket on their regular menu, just specials.

It’s not Cheektowaga but Smoke on the Water is good. In Tonawanda

No, I like guys that score almost all the time, like Sam has shown he can. He had a slump for 17% of his career, but let's not talk about the other 83%, that hurts our argument.
Give me a (frank)ing break, dude.
Let's look at Mr Toughness. Signed a massive 1 year $1.75M deal with St Louis:
He's never once played all 82, and he didn't play all 48 during the shortened season either.
Took him until he was 28 years old and playing with Jesus(the guy with 137 assists in the last 2 years, hmm I wonder how Maroon scored so many goals?) before he was anything more than a glorified 3rd liner and scored 20 goals and he ended up with 27.
"Toughness" is nigh on worthless these days. A guy that scored as many goals as Maroon did the past 2 years should've gotten like $4M a year. But he didn't, because he's not that good and teams know it and "tough" guys are a dime a dozen.
Guys that can actually score are valuable. People female dog about one bad half, but when the other 5 halves are brought up, they're "made up". Right... The line at the end of the season is what matters, and as bad as the first half was he ended up with a career year in goals and points. Other than a tiny handful of guys at the top, there's no such thing as a "consistent" hockey player in the way you deem it to be. And even then, Jesus had a 6 game stretch where he had only 2 points. That's ice cold for a guy that ended up with 108 points. Just because Sam isn't "tough" doesn't mean he sucks, or is weak. - Wetbandit1
That's great, but why are you giving sam 6 years again?
Seriously, NO WAY THE SABRES SIGN SAM FOR MORE THEN 3 YEARS.
He needs to hit the weight room. Improve his strength and stop getting blasted.

I must've gone on a bad day, all I've heard is good things. It's not that it was bad, but it wasn't very good, the pulled pork was soggy, not tender, and it was expensive for what you got.
One Eyed Jacks in Lockport is the best place in the area for my money.

I’m not a huge BBQ person. Not that I won’t eat it, but I rarely crave it. Same way with Steak.
Give me a great burger or chicken dish over the other two
Is Eichel a better play maker or shooter? I feel strongly that he's a playmaker and they need a one-time threat on the right side of the ice. Essentially, flip flop your caps vid.
Last year, Eichel was forced to be both. - Lunaion
Eichel:
Play maker for sure.
How many scrubs has he set up over the past 3 years?
He really should shoot a bit more, maybe be more selfish

I'm not sure that's that possible, the last 2 years he's averaged ~6.75 shot attempts per game.
He'd be at Ovechkin levels if he shot more. I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but in 16-17 he did average pretty damn close 7.02 to 7.1 Ovechkin. I don't think people realize just how much he does shoot the puck.

2 righties, how did they ever score goals on the PP? - Wetbandit1
The difference here is that watching Ovie smoke a perfect one timer into the top corner vs the pominville video is that Pommer’s Goal was a total fluke. The goalie flubbed it. That was a weak sauce set up. Should never have went in.
