Jeff Skinner and the Sabres continued their remarkable run on Friday, rallying to beat the Montreal Canadiens 3-2 in overtime. Skinner provided the game-tying and game-winning goals, the latter of which came with the man advantage, giving him a league-leading 17 goals. Casey Mittelstadt opened the scoring with his fourth goal of the season. Hear from Skinner, Mittelstadt and Zach Bogosian after Buffalo's victory.

I'm beginning to think we got the better out of that Skinner trade.

By a mile, if he’s re-signed.

 Figured that’s what would happen when they announced Scandella was playing. Bummer. I was hoping to see what he could do. But he will see games with the Sabres at some point this season.

Does anyone know how much one of these boxes cost for a game? 

 

I believe they run $4000-$7000 per game. They are super expensive. 

 

I get suite tickets once once in a while, but I don’t pay for them. Its definitely a great experience - all sorts of free food and drinks/alcohol etc, but there’s better ways to spend that much money... lol.

The schedule is really loaded with a lot of games in a short time span. It is really compressed. There's not not much time to get the aches and bruises healed. In our recent western trip the Sabres played three games in four days' They then returned home for a short break and now are playing back to back with one home game and won road game. This has become a sport where it is a requirement that  rosters be filled with a lot of young legs.

 

What was not acknowledged too much in the Montreal game was that Skinner's winning goal came off a Dahlin shot that was on net. The young Swede's role has steadily been increased. Already it is fair to say that he is an instrumental player. He's so smooth that you don't notice him as much compared to Eichel and Skinner who are more explosive players.

Then they all stood up and starting throwing things at you and yelling in unison get this sneaky trespasser out of our selective box!  Your engaging personality is sometimes not working. I guess it depend on the audience.:)

nah..they all were appreciative of me. Before i rolled in, they thought it was against decorum to shout and scream. I , OTOH, don't know what decorum is!!! So once I started yelling at the ref and chanting Lets go Buffalo..they said damn, he is doing it, guess its okay for me to cheer too!!
