Together Again

It’s Friday, it’s cold, and there’s a hockey game in downtown Buffalo tonight. This is much more like it.
Click Here for the TGR/Bfloblog live chat. Should be a good time for an interesting game.

Fastest Checkdown in the Game

By Chris on January 29, 2010

Unfortunately, the Gunslinger doesn’t shoot Trent Edwards in the head.
I hadn’t seen this before, so thanks to my buddy Bob for sending it my way.

Wants and Needs: Carolina Hurricanes

By Chris on January 28, 2010

By Chris
The Buffalo Sabres should probably win the Northeast Division with the roster they have now. But to be a legitimate Stanley Cup contender, they might need a little help. Welcome to “Wants and Needs” where we purge the rosters of the bottom-feeding teams and see who the Sabres could realistically acquire for the stretch run [...]

In the Lead?

In the Lead?

I don’t love Ross McKeon, but I do love these three paragraphs:
The debate has only begun regarding this year’s top Calder candidate. And while the crop is once again deep, the clear-cut favorite is Buffalo Sabres defenseman Tyler Myers(notes), and not because of his gaudy offensive numbers for the position he plays or the impressive minutes [...]

This photo isn’t from last night, but I can’t find any good images of Hecht’s shootout winner against Martin Brodeur. In fact, this may serve as proof that it probably didn’t happen. We may have to break this down like the Zapruder film just to make sure Hecht actually made Marty Brodeur look that bad, [...]

Happiness is a Warm Gun

Happiness is a Warm Gun

I love late night hockey.
It helps that I’m a bit of an insomniac, but even when I was younger I always loved staying up late to watch (or listen to) the Sabres on the left coast. There is something about that extra three hours before gametime, when the game pushes past midnight and you just [...]

Miller’s Uncle Sam Head

Miller’s Uncle Sam Head

By Chris on January 26, 2010

Hockey Night in Buffalo has a sneak peek at the mask Ryan Miller will wear during the Olympics next month. Let’s take a look.

From that angle, it’s pretty awesome. I’m willing to bet there aren’t any dragons or tigers on the other side. It kind of looks like there might be a bald eagle there. Thoughts?
You can [...]

Wants and Needs: Minnesota Wild

By Chris on January 25, 2010

By Chris
The Buffalo Sabres should win the division with the roster they have — even with Ottawa creeping up in the standings. Buffalo may even be able to win a round or two without any major changes (and that’s true as long as Ryan Miller keeps up his superhuman play).
But General Manager Darcy Regier is in a position [...]

End of the Road

By Chris on January 25, 2010

By Chris

In a few weeks, Lindy Ruff, Ryan Miller, Jochen Hecht, Andrej Sekera, Toni Lydman and Henrik Tallinder will be back in Vancouver to compete in the Winter Olympics. It’s no surprise that they’re already fielding questions about the tournament as they’re in town to take on the Canucks tonight.
With the break only 10 games away, it [...]
