Sabres Lose to Wild, No One Cares

by Anne

Ok, its not that NO ONE cares but that game was HELLA boring. You could tell by the faces of the people as they came out of the stands to NOT buy popcorn and cotton candy that the game was less than exhilarating.

Yoyo scored one and Staffers scored on the shootout. Ok, Sissy kind of scored a goal, as it deflected off of him... and into our net. IT'S OK SISSSY, I STILL LOVE YOU. CALL ME WHEN YOU GET BACK FROM MINNESOTA!!

Its only the preseason. Whatevs. However, MK is never allowed to go to a game again. They've lost EVERY SINGLE GAME SHE'S EVER GONE TO. No joke, this is at least game # 6 or 7. My sister is a bad omen.

There isn't much else to report about the game except that Goose fight was awesome (except for the thumb thing). Gerbe looked good, a little all over the place (in good and bad ways) but he actually delivered some hits which was sweeeeeet. He went first in the shootout with no success, but that's a lot of pressure for a new player. Kennedy missed the shootout, too but that's ok, I can forgive them both. Lalime had a good game, that goal was totally not his fault. The shootout wasn't OUTSTANDING but eh? Its the pre-season.

Oh, and can people PLEASE stop asking Lala how many games he's going to play this season? 15-20ish, k? There. WRITE IT.

TO MORE IMPORTANT GOINGS ON FROM LAST NIGHT:

On the way out of the Arena I passed Miller who was talking to some dude who looked like but was not Tim Kennedy about golf while demonstrating his swing and Goose was talking to some woman, unless Goose is into cougars (which hey, get it, boy) she wasn't a girlfriend, so don't worry ladies! hahaha. Goose's back was to me, sad sad times. I contemplated asking about why he left the game (they don't tell the people actually AT the games when a player is injured unless its quite obvious). However, I did not because 1. I'm too chicken (ha Goose, Chicken!) and 2. we're not allowed to solicit autographs from them and therefore, trying to strike up casual conversation is probably frowned upon.

In other news, if it were possible I would eat nothing but Tortilla chips and queso dip for my entire life.

I ordered a new digital camera that UPS.com tells me has been in New Stanton, PA since Saturday morning. What can Brown do for me? Torture me with a nearby but not in my possession camera from Overstock.com.

Blahhhhhhhhhh. Less than two weeks to the start of the regular season!!!! Yeeeeee!!!

  1. Oh so that's why you got that job. So when you're leaving you can catch the backs of hockey players. I like the way you think.

    Oh and tortilla chips with queso dip is nothing short of being absolutely delicious.

    Just the next step in my MASTER PLAN!!!

    Actually, truth be told I assumed they left somewhere else and I might once in a while see one of them

    I'm glad off-the-cuff bird references make my readers laugh. I'll work on incorporating penguins and sparrows and those WACKY parrots in later posts.

    Don't they leave out that door down the hall from their locker room? Or were you by that door that is kind of by the plaza?
