Both of these points really go hand in hand with what I want to say. Just wait until Okposo doesn't have to be the top guy on the team anymore and when Ennis gets bumped down one line. This team is going to have so much more scoring talent once/if everyone gets healthy. It sucks that we have to wait, but you're getting hints of what they're trying to build long-term.

I couldn't help but wonder what the hell is going on throughout most of the episode. That sit down between Carol and Ezekiel made it all worthwhile though. We've been handed a character with the potential of being the male version of Carol. I hope he lives up to that level of badassery.

I'm getting really sick of this thing where buffalo teams only win when I'm not watching.

I bet it gets explained during the show.

With all the stupid clown stories, how have I not heard about this 31 movie until now? It always felt like a crazy promotional scheme for some movie.

I guess so. Basically what I need to happen is for this guy to yell out "get me a hacksaw" after going vampire on some guy's neck and all will quickly be forgiven.

I don't know what it is, but that guy is not a very badass looking Jack Bauer replacement.

To me, it's still more about next year than anything. That was the point where I expected them to start making some noise. For now, they just need to tread water and gel a little bit until they get the fire power back. Longterm, the front office needs to focus on strengthening the blue line. That's what will really help them if they're ever going to make the leap.

I'm with you 100%. Guys like Moulson who routinely wind up in the right places, that's not luck. He's a very smart player and he's exactly the kind of guy that can help a team thrive as a secondary scorer. This team would look a hell of a lot better if he was putting up these goals while the team wasn't missing at least 50 goals from their roster in the form of Eichel/Kane. I hope he can keep it going whenever they get back.

Sniper is just about the last word that comes to mind after seeing Moulson's goals yesterday. He's a garbage collector, but that's exactly what he needs to be.

Is it too much to ask that if NBC is going to air a game nationally, they actually put together a national broadcast? That thing was painful to listen to from start to finish.

I was about to say that only the most annoying characters won't die there, but then I remembered Chris. Still, I can't stand Nick, but unfortunately I think he's that show's Rick.

Especially Gudas.

Ha, that's exactly who I thought of when I saw Glen. And I'm really going to miss the Abe-isms. They should have a website dedicated to them.

I think the visuals of the trough from a few seasons ago were worse than this one. It probably has a lot to do with it being a huge surprise though. We knew someone was getting a baseball bat to the head here.

And clearly he hasn't run into many hockey players over the years. I had my share of beers with some other BU players back in my day and a picture with bud light in hand is beyond tame

I don't think he says it if they hadn't mentioned the poll earlier. He was trolling those people.

And that's exactly why he said it, to piss those people off. I hope they have him on more, the heel act could be fun.

I thought he was trying to play that up a bit on the show. It's obviously never going to work with that format, but he was definitely heeling it up a bit out there... "it's Daryl's fault that Glen is dead"

Nice. That probably would have worked really well, especially since they did actually show it from his point of view last season.

So what exactly does this Time Warner provide?

Yeah, the cliff hanger was a dumb move. Everything about that episode last night had season finale written all over it. That new beginning stuff was crap. I did something I don't do much and I sat through all of Talking Dead last night. It was one big eulogy. They weren't talking about a new start for the show, they were talking about what these characters meant to the show. They should have shown it last year. But whatever, we're all caught up now and we've got 7 episodes left to see where the fun goes. On another note, has a character ever had better last words than Abe? Ok, it wasn't his most creative, but I'll give him a pass given the state of his head.

He was asleep through all of it, but these were my dad's last Sabres and Bills games and I choose to believe that they kicked ass for him.

My DVR cut out with about 10 minutes left in the game. Fortunately it was right as they scored the 4th goal and the game was clearly over. Too bad, I could have used some positives after the long day I had.

So you're saying that Matthews won't score 328 goals this year while the rest of the team scores 0?
