Lines For Tonight

by Anne

Max is back and pissed he was out but he's glad he's back in front of the fans.

One of my favorite line combinations from last season is back together! Goose, Pommer and Yo-yo. I really liked that line last year and I'm really excited to see them back in action. Last year Yo-yo centered that line with Goose playing on the wing. I assume that'll still be the case, but I'm a fan of Goose centering as well, Lindy.

Unfortunately (?) Staffy-Roy-Vanek is also back together. I believe this is called "beating a dead horse".

Marky Mark is still up, skating on a line with Grizz and Max.

Pie has the flu!! :'(

I guess that means the 4th line is Mairsy with Petey and Kaleta.

Patches is out, Hank the Tank is back in.

Dear 4th line or Goose or Marky Mark,

Please beat up Phil Kessel. I know he's not technically the player you're supposed to go for, but on my behalf, please make it happen.

Love,

Anne

LET'S GO BUFF-A-LO!!!

  1. Do you guys always play "Wake Up" by Arcade Fire when you score a goal? Because that is SERIOUSLY AMAZING.

    I've been to many, many concerts, but Arcade Fire was hands down the best show I've ever seen. I had the worst seats, and there was some weird guy dancing next to me like he was being attacked by wasps but it was still effing incredible. Ironically, they didn't even play Wake Up. I digress. In conclusion, I applaud you, Buffalo Sabres, for recognizing the genius of AF.

  2. Yes I am voting for the beat up Phil Kessel nomination! That would make Millsie smile!

    Yesss, I'm sure Millsy would love it!

    Yes, that's one of our new goal songs. They're phasing out "Song 2" by Blur, which is ok with me. Its been done.

    I've never seen them live but the music guy at the Arena is pretty sharp so he's usually got a great song for every occasion. My favorite is when someone gets a bogus penalty. Sometimes he plays "Mercy" and when they're reviewing a goal he plays "We Can Work it Out".
