just noticed something about the horn for you guys at home they just tooted the horn 7 times to signal 7 goals they never did that before. Did anyone else notice it:question:

[SkateZilla]

ARENA TIMEOUT, Good thing for Denis.. lol...

[BillsSabresB.C.T. Fan]

for you guys that are wondering about this glass problem there's 2:03 left in the 2nd period they will play the rest of the 2nd period teams playing in the same end of the rink that they were in at the beginning of the 2nd period. then the teams will switch ends and the third period will begin immediately with no intermission.

[clumping platelets]

Kickin' sum major :moon:

[SabreEleven]

Seven ****ing goals. Unbelieveable. That has to be some kind of record. They need to save some of this scoring

They give us plenty to cheer about, but sometimes I just sit back and grin, taking it in and pondering what a special time this is to be a Sabres fan.

[MikeInRoch]

Thank goodness for DVR. When I went up to put my daughter to bed, it was 0-1. When I came down, it was 6-1. I got to rewind it and watch them all.

[SkateZilla]
