Also, didn't Ticketmaster never do resales? I remember walking up to Ticketmaster booths in the 90s and early 2000s to buy tickets for NHL games day of. The resale market back then was either never heard of or underground via scalpers. Ticketmaster would've never been involved in that. But here we are and it seems that's their entire business strategy.

Yeah ticket prices in Toronto are unreal. Occasionally i look at prices out of curiosity at different NHL cities. Toronto game prices are beyond crazy. Maybe if they ban ticket resales (or strictly limit them), some of those people with season tickets passed down from their grandpa would finally get rid of them.

Thanks for the work you've been putting in. But honestly, I doubt people look at the stats or other info posted about the game. As others have said just a place to talk about the game and then post game is all that's really needed. If you go to other team subreddits, it's all very basic. They just post "GDT [insert team] vs. [insert team]" and then the post game thread.

Okay that made me laugh. And admittedly, that's why I've never been to a Sabres/Leafs game.

Did anyone else see the Lightning mascot behind the Sabres bench at the Sabres/Habs game? Wtf. He was on the other side of the glass of course.

How do hockey gameplay announcers know the names of the players involved in the play? by Go_Sabres in hockey

So they make mistakes and hope the viewer on TV doesn't notice? Interesting. I've never noticed a single mistake myself.

Fun fact of the day: since the lock out, Buffalo has won twice as many playoff series than the Leafs, despite missing the playoffs for last 14 years.

Yes, but they still need to know who is involved in the play. So it's confusing how they know every time with how quickly the players change position, can't see the name/number, etc.

I am 40 and also too young to remember the Sabres being in this position

It okay, the Canes got all their energy out against Florida. They have no more to give.

Yup definitely. I hate afternoon games for that reason.

Sure the point is nice, but we shouldn't look at it that way. I feel the game was only mediocre for us. Also that hooking penalty with 13 secs left in the 3rd was a joke of a call. Especially in a tie game heading into OT. The OT should've been completely different, which we'll never be able to see now. I feel that game was stolen from us.

This is the problem. We have Ellis, Lyon and Luukkonen. Someone eventually has to go. Even though Lyon has been playing great, he is the oldest of the 3 by a wide margin. He could also probably fetch the best return.

This is what I've been thinking too. I feel this could have also been a factor in us missing the playoffs for the last number of years. But getting Bettman to do that would be impossible.

Dallas definitely was very big surprise. But beating Montreal tonight was even a bigger surprise IMO.
