I have not in quite some time no.
Was thinking about it the other day, but doing some home projects 1st.

While I was on the Appalachian Trail this past fall I stopped at a friend's house in Front Royal Virginia for a couple days. We could just go out in his yard and shoot his shot gun anytime he wanted. It was kind of amazing being in a state with human freedom.

GOOD NEWS SABRES FANS

73gp 28 30 58 -9 (29 PP points)
81gp 24 32 56 -16 (21 PP points)

The top line is Olo's carreer stat line. The second line is Jack's rookie season in which he played 81 games. Good news. Olo is on pace to be a better player and looks that way already this season.

Sounds like most New Yorkers should move to Ohio and West Virginia, you can be a hick and it's still cool.

the quality of life on a mountain in WV, TN, etc can be pretty incredible. I advise anyone who can to do a B&B in Harper's Ferry, WV. Easily the prettiest town I've been in the U.S. since I was in Cooperstown years ago. Parts of HF look like a European town on a mountainside.

when you think about the fact technology has made any city museum available to anyone with an internet connection... i don't see the draw of metropolitan areas in 2021 anymore.

Good news? Olofsson is a 1-trick pony, wimpy version of Ales Kotalik. He doesn't have the time or space to get his shot off unless there's a man advantage and he can't win puck battles along the boards.

He is a great complimentary player on a team that needs a PP specialist 3rd liner to solidify their top-9. On the Sabres? Has a wicked shot bro. We have too many issues and holes for him to be any part of a solution. Even if he isn't close to being a part of the problem.

All and well but kost people can't afford much more than a weekend getaway there and honestly, going to Europe is pretty (frank)ing cheap compared to being a tourist in my home country.

Living in that environment? If I was a multi-millionaire maybe I'd have a summer house.

But if I had a vagina I would be a woman, too, so it doesn't matter.

Sabres are in a tight fight, they have an uphill battle that is going to last the season. The have the experience, and I believe fully in this Coaching staff to keep the team on the right path.

Sabres in 30th by points, but need to dig harder to make up on the points percentage metric...one never knows when/if the season may be called early.

This would be a terrific feat, they can then package that high 1st this season along with Skinner (when he bows to Kevyn Krueger and waives his NMC) to Seattle.
They can then follow that up with a B/O of Okposo on July 1st.

Boom, they just found $15m to go out and buy 2 more Girgensons!!!

Ottawa's brain trust is barely any more competent than Buffalo's, plus their owner is a clown. Detroit, on the other hand, will get that ship turned around.

Scary stuff.

Now we know why Rasmus Ristolainen needed more time to recover. The Sabres defenseman endured some scary symptoms, including chest pain, during a bout with Covid-19.

Ristolainen has been cleared by doctors, but he’s still fatigued.
