Are you the one that was going to sob? And did you?? 🥹
Just people. The idea is they could be any Sabres fan.
Thank you!
My goodness. Thank you. Lots of talented people around me who make me look good.
Wow, Matt. Thank you! Quite the compliment. Our whole crew was all-in on this one.
Thank you! It was a daunting endeavor, I won’t lie.
I'm in this! Also @philmcandrew.bsky.social @tyler-m.bsky.social @raymondmcandrew.bsky.social
Well we did it…
Who’s mad?
A pianist at center ice of KeyBank Center wearing a Sabres royal blue and gold “Better Days” jersey with the #26 plays the opening melody to “Better Days” by the Goo Goo Dolls.
They left us no choice…
Also, if the player from the team that didn’t dump the puck takes their sweet-ass time chasing the puck, thus letting it cross the goal line when they could have stopped it, it would get waved off. And, you can ice the puck while you are killing a penalty.
Then it is not icing, and you’re good. HOWEVER, for player safety, the ref makes a call at which player is “more likely” to get to the puck first based on who gets to the area level with the faceoff dot first…so that’s where judgment calls come in and it gets dicey.
The punishment is the face-off comes back into your zone anyway, and you can’t make any player changes, so if you iced the puck because you’re desperate to get to the bench, you’re out of luck. BUT if someone from your team can beat someone from the other team chasing the puck down…
Well then! I am here for you. Icing exists so that when you’re playing defense, you can’t just wildly chuck the puck to the other end and turn the game into a boring game of fetch. If the puck crosses the red line and goes all the way past the goal line w/out being touched, that’s icing.
It’s a lot of games to schedule, so there’s definitely a bit of staggering.
I assume you know the basics of icing, so I’ll just say nobody fully, consistently understands the rules in hockey!
I hope you enjoy the playoffs even more!
Even the casuals and “never really got into hockey” people in this town can get fired up to hate Boston for a few weeks.
Gird your loins, Buffalo. We ride at dawn.*
*on Saturday or Sunday
This is a great idea.
There are people in Buffalo also having issues, so this is a weird one. Sorry about it!
We are unsure why this is…might be app/provider based, but are looking into it! I’ll share if I learn anything shareable!
You checked TruTV?
Wish he was here.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! WOOOT!!!!
Why thank you!
Today is my birthday, so I hope very much that you have better luck :)
My crew is hoping to 👀 some happy fans at Sports City on Niagara tonight!
Why, yes, that is Gilbert Perreault, the first Sabre, singing Proud Mary that you were hearing. #RollinOnTheRiver
