DrDawkinstein Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 5 minutes ago, Gregg said: I wonder how many season ticket holders the Sabres have. Many years of lousy hockey had the season ticket base decline. Start winning and that will pick up again as well as individual ticket sales. Good question, I wonder that myself. Especially because since there are 82 games, 41 home games, the cost of Sabres season tickets can be 2-3x as much as BILLS season tickets! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to the game tonight, hope the atmosphere is a little bit better than Tuesday I'm guessing it'll be a much better crowd. A lot of folks may take Friday off for a long weekend. Should be a fun game. I'll be watching on the telly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabres season tickets are definitely tougher to do for an individual than Bills season tickets but with Sabres tickets I know a lot of people that get friends or family to split them with 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleezoid Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Up and down period. Erik Johnson first goal. I like it. What I like better was the intermission interview he did with Rayzor. Best hockey interview I've watched in a long time. He sounded like a coach! Very straight forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bray Wyatt Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Man they were bad tonight, should have won 3-1, instead lose 4-3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QCity Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 That was one ugly game. Levi looked mortal, was fighting the puck all night. Tuch must still be hurt from preseason or something, he looks terrible. Entire team was disjointed, very hard to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T&C Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Yeah that was a tough watch. We've got to click for the whole game, not just patches here and there. I just hope sooner than later we can string a few wins together to show some continuity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Gonna forget about the sanres till the midway point. What I've seen doesn't merit following them before then. Need more than talk at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jokeman Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Meatballs better rest Levi or this could burn out before he establishes himself. He's clearly not playing well yet we have 2 other goalies that just sit on the bench. Give UPL the next game please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure hope they aren’t planning to try and get 50(+) games out of him because that seems like a disaster waiting to happen. At most he should get 50% of the games, if that. He’s a 21yr old rookie stepping into the NHL straight from college (which is almost unheard of). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was actually a little surprised to see him starting. I guess they were worried about sacrificing too many points early in the season so they pushed him a little too hard? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregg Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 The Sabres will get the Isles coming of a B2B. Isles play at home tonight against the Devils before visiting the Sabres tomorrow. Sorokin is supposed to start tonight so the Sabres will most likely get Varlamov on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I am left trying to understand the point of keeping 3 goalies on the roster if they don’t even trust the other 2 to get spot starts… 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevyVanMiller Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 One of the most frustrating things about the Sabres, dating back a few years now, is that so few of their losses are after regulation. That loser point can go a long way in determining what teams sneak into the playoffs and which ones are left on the outside looking in. Last night was a great example of them being unable to lock up at least a point in the 3rd period. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems like he’s going to be a good influence for the younger players (as long as they listen to him). I love listening to his interviews. He definitely has a future in coaching and/or development if he wants it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
