This is a lot of work to let us know that Murray wasn’t as bad as Charelli.


The guy still traded Pysyk, of course he was fired

I just thought it was interesting. My perception was that Draisaitl was doing it himself

I thought that to but when he signed that contract I started watching highlights and some of their games, he’s an excellent complimentary player.

He’s faster and bigger than 23 so he can drive the zone more effectively. They play very similar games.

Nope. Draisaitl isn't as great as he's made out to be. Way overpaid for what he brings by himself. If we could get that good Reinhart that we saw over the past few weeks to play consistently, he'd catch up to Draisaitl in no time.

But anyways ..

The Sabres need to fix the arena next year

- GERBE!!!75PTS


Corrected it for you. Still can't believe they don't fix the seats that are stained and ripped apart. Cup holders that aren't holding up and their version of insulation is a thin black sheet around the rink..

I think it's block all the way up, and then probably a layer of 2-inch rigid insulation and dryvit on the exterior. Simple, but it probably holds heat pretty well. Looks like crap though.

Agreed on the inside. It's bland and the 300 level concourse sucks. It was built as a utilitarian, no-frills arena

New state of the art stadium/arena, it’ll take up 40% of downtown.

Also In the project is a new subway system that goes from downtown-airport-niagara falls.

I’ve never been in those seats that’s quite concerning that you guys get poopty seats and the people upstairs get nice comfortable ones

You sit through a poopty hockey game you should at least be comfortable

After watching the gold medal game last night I can do nothing but congratulate USA women's team!

Shame on USA men's hockey. Not the players, but the management! Will Borgen sat on your bench! Shame on you for taking him out of schhol if you dont suit up the best team!

- Acup2buff



To be fair, there are only two superpowers in Women's Hockey: USA and Canada.

There are five or six of them in men's hockey: Russia, Canada, Sweden, Finland, USA, and possibly the Czech Republic (though they haven't been that as of late). That said, I still think USA Hockey as a whole (when you include Juniors and professional) is #5 in that group.

At some point, they're gonna have to rip the roof and the 300 level off and redesign that. It's already at least half of the way, if not 2/3rds of the way through its useful lifecycle. It's in the oldest third of arenas, I think - although we're used to that here, the NHL probably doesn't like that

I went to Sabres-Pens in Pittsburgh earlier this season. Their 300-level equivalent is an open hallway. You can see the action no matter where you are at in the concourse. It would have been nice if Keybank Center was designed like that.

And since I am a glutton for punishment, I am going to Sabres at Capitals on Saturday.

According to this, it is 13th oldest

That sounds awesome. Meanwhile, you can't even see the game play from the aisle entrances at KBC

I just looked it up, KBC was built for $125 million - $200 million in 2017 dollars. The Penguins arena was built for $365 million in 2017 dollars. Ya get what ya pay for, i guess
