This is so on brand for Buffalo. Love this, reminder that not all players have families they can be with at the holidays. 

I’m making pierogis and kielbasa/sauerkraut for New Years, pretty excited

Called in Polish, Wigilia:

Traditionally meatless:

 

"...The Wigilia is a meatless meal, no doubt the result of a long-time Church mandate that a strict fast and abstinence be observed on this day before Christmas. Although the Church laws have been revised and permit meat to be eaten on this day, the traditional meal remains meatless. Items that would normally be included in a traditional Wigilia menu include mushroom soup, boiled potatoes (kartofle), pickled herring (sledzie), fried fish, pierogi, beans and sauerkraut (groch i kapusta), a dried fruit compote, babka, platek, assorted pastries, nuts and candies. ..."

Seafood casserole the night before a game?!  Man's got stones of solid steel, held up by 1/2" aircraft cable! 😳

 

Two nights - Christmas was Sat, this was Christmas eve.  But when he laid out to catch that ball and went face first into the turf, I agree with you.  Mind you, they must be small solid steel stones or the lil' guy couldn't run like he does with them.

I think normally, the players without family would get together on a holiday at a veteran's or position coach's house

But I think the "enhanced protocol" rules are that no more than 3 players can get together outside the facility

(I'm not sure, and of course the protocols keep changing)
