Depends on where you are. I believe it's 9 in the suburbs.

EDIT: It's 15 in the suburbs now. Channel 12 in the city. It's changed. I have DirecTV but I also have a rooftop antenna.

Ohhh I forgot how poor of a job buffalo does developing its prospects. After onne offseason working with Vancouver trainers kickassian has actually improved in every area of his game. I can't say the same when he was with buffalo.

He sure worked well in the playoffs.

I could say the same about Hodgson for you guys....oh wait that's right you didn't make the playoffs.

And just for you know Coho was on the 4th line and healthy scratched as well during our cup run last year. Like Coho was last year kassian is just a unpolished rookie and needs a full off season here to develop the right way instead of just being thrown into action

Honestly this is first time I've read of this. Do you have any proof or a link to support that statement?

BTW I'd like to see ennis-coho-Stafford play with each for a full season this year. It seemed they had good chemistry last year and was a very good second line

...only time he was thrown into full time action is when he went to Vancouver and we all saw how good that turned out to be. I wouldn't say a couple call ups here is considered thrown into action. Outside of Tyler myers no Sabre prospect has ever been thrown into action.....thanks for coming

I'll agree here. Kassian is a good prospect. It was a good trade for both teams (that we won handily)..

dude kassian isnt even close to being an NHL ready player ..... the truth of the matter is:

- Kassian looks lost in the defensive zone aka defensive liability
- at times looked lost
- wouldnt fight
- wasnt a big hitter
- lazy or clueless

he was awful at times and looks terrible.

Kassian got the notion of a big hitter because of 2 hits and people called him the next "lucic" The guy will never ever be a lucic for your canucks. TSN people overrated him big time

As for you X hogdson:

Hes got a high hockey IQ
Nice passer
good shot
good at faceoffs

The one issue i had was his acceleration / first couple strides.

my answer: Gary Roberts / rookie camp

You could clearly see an extra pip in his step (comparing from the Sabres regular season) So hes working on getting quicker

Hodgson >>>> Kassian
Sulzer >>> Grags - gragani isnt even on your team anymore!

be careful and study ALL options ....don't lock yourself in as there will be a penalty with satellight services if you decide to change before a certai perion. Don't know about Fios as its not in Chautauqua County but TWC,Dish & Direct all have some difference and advantages

I have BOTH Dish and TWC down here Cost me $85.24. With the latter TWC) I just have what they call Broadcast service buffalo channels.Canadian, all public Access, and disney, Ion plus channel from Erie. Coupled with Dish I get the rest with LA,Boston, Denver,Chicago, NJ and WPIX.

Don't get Yankees but don't care...am Tiger fan and all Sabres games you can get online

Yeah, somehow, Ryan got the "A" over Getz.

Getz went pointless, +4 and won 73% of his draws.

Ryan had a goal, +2, 2 hits and 1 fight.

My lines are:

1. "HDTV" / Getzlaf / Ryan
2. Doan / Zajac / Pominville
3. Leino / Cogliano / ME
4. Ott / McCormick / Kaleta

(edit - put Scott, meant Ott. Scott is odd man out in the press box)

1. Myers / Regehr
2. Ehrhoff / Leopold
3. Weber / Pardy

Miller / Enroth
