6/29/08: Summer Camp Is Hard!

[Slight Dramatization. Slight.]
Yesterday, my father decided the whole family should go to see the future Sabres at development camp. I don’t mind because very few of my friends are really that into the Sabres anyways. Sigh. I need new friends (except Ashers and Little L). He said Saturday because it was the best possible day [...]

Hottie Hockey & Beast Mode

 ”Let’s hug it out, bitches.”
Vote for your hottness.
I heart hockey players part deux.
Today, we FINALLY heard what happened to Marshawn Lynch – six minutes, no license, an apology, and $150 later. I don’t know what to think. No dancing lady here, but that reminds me of the Sabres draft party. On the way back from the draft, [...]

What Exactly IS In Kaleta’s Pants?

I have your attention? Haha!
The Sabres official site is updating us fans like crizazy (reppin’ Heather) with Development Camp fun and other Sabre news. Gracias, Sabres! My absolute favorite thing I’ve read so far is the following quote by hitting machine and Buffalo native Patrick Kaleta.
“‘When you go in [the locker room], you’re basically [going] [...]

Adios, Miami Heat

I heard some extremely disturbing news. Some major airlines are close to bankruptcy because of ridiculous oil prices. $130 a barrel is sick. American Airlines are already charging $15 for your first checked bag and $25 for the second. Both ways. That shows how nasty our economy is right now. Many other airlines have already [...]

Camp Dwyer

I knew Chara was tall, but I never knew his actual height. Chara is 6′9 while Tyler Myers is only 6′7. Sigh. I thought we could beat him. Thanks, Chara, for ruining my life! While Tyler may be short in comparison, Charallinder > Zdeno. Shove that in your puck and ice it.
Soooo I’m facebook friends [...]

Hey, It’s The New Guys!

I haven’t really taken a look at any of our drafties yet (besides Tyler 1 and Tyler 2), so I decided yesterday I would. Here are some of my thoughts about the new kids.
Tyler Myers
Charallinder is from Houston, Texas. I guess everything really is bigger there, hockey players included. I’m really excited about this guy. [...]

Draft Party Part 2

There was also a concert at Dunn Tire Park during the draft party- some Country thang. This guy with a cowboy hat asked if we were going to Dunn Tire. We told him we were attending the Sabres Draft Party (Country music Vs. Sabres… no question!). He seemed disappointed. He really liked Country music I [...]

Draft Party Recap

Well, I went on about five different tours yesterday and one of them included the HSBC. Yes, the Sabres locker room! I’ve never been in there before. There were a pair of dirty socks hanging out of a bucket and they were calling me. They said, “Steal me, Dani! They WANT you to take the [...]

Fun Fun Fun

Tomorrow, the HSBC’s holding their draft party from 5-9 with:
(A) Cheap food. Yesss.

(C) Dressing room tours. Yessss.
The New York Rangers ask in a ten question survey, if you were a GM, how would you draft? Interesting… 
        
1. “In your opinion, what is the most important method of player acquisition for building a championship NHL [...]
