I feel like my whole neighborhood is waiting for more snow to come before shoveling because there really isn’t anything worth shoveling right now.

Hey, give the excellent

Lindy Ruff said on the postgame is he may have tweaked his previous injury. Could’ve played, they opted against it.

That’s a hell of a game. Sometimes they go that way. Hell of a game from Bussi but damn if the Sabres didn’t get after it.

Bold call by me here but I don’t think Norris is going to be out long. I also don’t think Buffalo is going big fish fishing but Jarmo is a new quantity to be judged so…

Over the years, when people would ask how Pegula could operate his teams with such polar results, my upshot was: "Be thankful he doesn't run the Bills like he does the Sabres." You can't say that anymore. Column to post shortly.

To my not-on-the-Bills-beat eye, Beane and McDermott have been playing PR games against each other for the last few months. One or both of them knew that if they didn’t come through, change was coming.

Eerie, the timing. The last time I walked into a locker room so devastated and disarmed was when the 2005-06 Sabres — their elite roster hammered to bits — almost won yet crumbled in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Pretty grounded take from Lindy Ruff about today's game. "I think this is also product of the schedule. You're going to see some goofy scores and you're going to see some games where you don't look as good and you'll look back and you pretty well know why."
