    SABRES Are you on the band wagon yet

    wow they just keep going and going the city needs this this team is exciting enough for even my wife to get on board. she gave up her programs to watch the sabres. The bills got her years ago but now she tells me when the sabres are playing. fast exciting hockey when they fall behind you know they can still win miller and biron both can start and that second line is about as good as you can get.

    Well,I don't consider myself "on the bandwagon" I have been a fan for years. My dad was the ultimate bandwagon fan. He did not want to know a team until they made the playoffs...

    I have not even been to HSBC arena yet, lol!!!!!

    I'm more of a 'Saturday night' hockey fan. Love watching hockey on Saturday night, all night.

    I'll admit the Sabre's make me totally forget about that sad excuse for a football team we have here.

    No, I'm not on the wagon, yet. 8-0 isn't good enough.

    I heard you fell off the wagon a long time ago, which explains a lot.

    Golisano is the hero behind the SABRES ...couldn't happen to a nicer guy! I don't know him, but, it seems everything he touches turns to gold (silver?)

    GO SABRES!!!

    What do you mean by 'tougher teams'?

    My worry is they'll collapse against an easier team- they've a history of losing to easier opponents...but given the pounding Boston and Philly took last week, I don't see that as being a problem.

    They're the class of the field right now- what remains to be seen is whether they can sustain this level of performance. Teams that win the President's Trophy sometimes have a hard time getting past the first round of the playoffs.

    I hope they don't burn out and come limping to the finish line at the end of the season.....

    I don't think so. This team has the leadership and dare I say it ....heart; they'll be strong or find a way to finish what they have started.

    Just a reminder/question, but when Drury was a part of the Avalanche...did they not win the Presidents cup and the Stanley Cup? As long as they can stay focused and wellI won't say the other topic...they should be fine.

    BTW..I have been a fan since the day I was born and am glad that Buffalo has the Sabres.

    right now

    after last nights butt beating, either the Sabres have this big old horseshoe up there butts, or the teams we've been facing are just plan bad teams.....I know the Sabres will beake the teams winning record set back in the 70's, and I also know Dury will also brake Rick Martin's scoring record of 13 goals during the teams win streak reocrd....I can't understand why is this all happing after last season show. What has changed ? What are the Sabres doing differently then last season ? And why now?...Strange things are a foot, or should I say strange things on the puck..

    Still not a believer, Riven? I had a feeling you wouldn't be, even after the best start in franchise history. They've played all playoff teams too, except for Boston. They've defeated the Cup winner twice, President's Trophy winner, and the Eastern Conference champs. But I think you know they're good, and just like to say they aren't for some reason.

    They won't go undefeated, but there's not a game they'll go into where I think they'll lose.

    I think they'll have no problem with the Islanders. I'd almost worry about them looking past it, but I don't think that will happen. They should be fired up for a game against Satan, Zhitnik, and Teddy Nolan. None of these guys were here for Nolan, but Ruff replaced him and held the job ever since.

    I think they play Atlanta on Saturday, who's also off to a white-hot start. This could be the year the Thrashers finally make the playoffs. That should be a great game. I'm looking forward to watching it.
