    Wll then let me just quote dave in Rocha

    “Sorry Mr. Wilson, but Fuck You.”

  2. Kevin J. says:

    Ah, thanks Kevin, you rat bastard and wherever you are.

  3. Kevin says:

    But I won’t get to see the game, if it’s any consolation…

  4. keller says:

    I hope Sabres fans are in my seats.

  5. PA Pete says:

    The Leafs always play well vs the Sabres

    And, this time, they’re well rested.

    For the Sabs, however, this is their 3rd in 4 nights; 6th in 9 nights. Can that be right? I think it is. Whew.

    36 lovely degrees in southern New Hampshire, not quite “Live Freeze and Die” but I did step in slushy water up to my ankles today. As I tell the kids who cleared the roof of snow today – IT BUILDS CHARACTER!

    Thanks Kids!

    60 out by the bay in Cali, not too bad :)

  8. Wolf says:

    I’m going to be doing my taxes tonight while I watch the game. Anyone wanna lay odds on whether or not I get audited as a result??

  9. vtTom says:

    Wolf -
    I’ll bet you the ice cold beverage of your choice that if you list after your name on the tax forms, you state “also known as Wolf” you’ll get audited.

  10. PA Pete says:

    I don’t see how Sundin can play well given all the trade rumors going on about him. I mean, what’s the motivation??

  11. LizzieB says:

    Wolf – I can’t watch because I’m stuck in Fed Tax class tonight, so feel free to ask me any questions you’ve got. I’ll ask them of my professor and I’ll look like a superstar for being engaged while everyone else falls asleep.

  12. Wolf says:

    Lizzie – I have a question for you… will you do my taxes for me??? :-)

  13. LizzieB says:

    Wolf – I have to warn you that my Bankruptcy class begins at 8:30, so if I do your taxes, you may end filing a petition for Chapter 11 instead of filing a return with the IRS. I make no guarantees or warranties as to the quality of my work.

  14. Wolf says:

    Fair enough. I hate doing taxes enough that I’m willing to take that chance!

  15. PA Pete says:

    Anyone else notice the narrator’s voice fading in and out? Or is it my cable provider?

    Seems like volume goes low and then higher. …. The HD picture is awesome, though

  16. Wolf says:

    Awwww – my 4 year old son has opted to watch the first period rather than read before bed. It brings a tear to my eye!

  17. Kevin J. says:

    Narrator? Which broadcast are you watching, PA Pete?

    I know that guy (professionally) who is in the current UNYTS commercial; at one point, you could see each of us repeatedly, and fortunately for short periods of time, in a certain news story in Buffalo involving “adult supervision.”

    And UNYTS (sp.?) is a fine organization; they were great with my mom and our family when my father died and donated his organs.

  18. vtTom says:

    Bruins 1, Pen-ga-wins 0

    stay on target boys!

  19. vtTom says:

    B’s 2, Pitt still 0

  20. Pauldub says:

    Just got directv. Where the hell’s the game?

  21. Wolf says:

    Paul – NHL channel – 215

  22. Wolf says:

    But normally they’re on MSG – 627, so remember that channel ;-)

  23. Pauldub says:

    Says not available in my area???????????

  24. Wolf says:

    I thought TheKaleta! was about to get his 2nd goal there…

  25. Wolf says:

    Are you in Buffalo? If so, try 627. It might be on MSG for you.

  26. PA Pete says:

    It’s on NHL Network in south central PA.

    THe sound is horrible, though

    Frikkin Comcast

  27. Pauldub says:

    Basketball. Calling directv now to kill someone

  28. Wolf says:

    Paul, if you got the Center Ice package, go to the 700’s and look there.

  29. Wolf says:

    Paul, are you sure 627 is basketball? Mine says Sabres/Leafs, but it’s blacked out because I’m out of market (Maryland) and am forced to watch these hacks on NHL channel. BUt if you’re in Western NY, you should be getting it on 627 cause it’s your local station.

  30. vtTom says:

    Paul
    When I got center ice via Direct TV I had to call to activate the box – that was several years ago, an older box – maybe you have to call?????

  31. Kevin J. says:

    Good Buffalo shift to start the period, and not bad second shift so far, either.
    .

  32. jerthebear says:

    If you have only NHL Center Ice, the game is blacked out since it’s on NHL Network. A bunch of garbage in my opinion. The game is not available to me unless I subscribe to Brighthouse’s garbage sports package for about $10 a month.

  33. jerthebear says:

    dammit!!! and on top of that, the only radio feed that is working on nhl.com is Leafs feed!! dammit!

  34. Wolf says:

    Yeah, Miller!!!

  35. Kevin J. says:

    Man, Hecht can be a bear with the puck down low in the offensive zone.

  36. vtTom says:

    dammit!!! and on top of that, the only radio feed that is working on nhl.com is Leafs feed!! dammit!

    Jer – go to http://www.wgr55.com – I am listening right now.
    you must register your email address.

  37. Kevin says:

    Hey, I’m listening for a minute on wgr. zip-zip after two and the slowest loading BfloBlog I have seen in a while.

  38. vtTom says:

    yeah – I got the dreaded “cannot find server message” after having checked my email during the intermission – my “history” now has a cbs sportsline listed under he bflo-blog header – strange – Sun Spots????

  39. jrr1911 says:

    VICTORY!!!

  40. Ryan says:

    Looks like I missed an exciting thread…

  41. Wolf says:

    Kevin, yeah, the site crashed somewhere around the start of the third, and never came back up the rest of the game. Too bad, too cause I wasn’t able to jinx Miller with 2 minutes left and pitching a shutout! ;-) That boy stood on his head last night.

  42. Jesse H. says:

    Hopefully this game brought a Sundin trade that much closer so that when we play the Leafs FOUR MORE TIMES they’ll be even further weakened.

  43. robbie says:

    anyone know why i can’t find 3 stars for this game? TSN doesn’t have it, MSG and the postgame didnt show them either….

    guess i’d say:
    1.) Miller
    2.) Goose
    3.) Key Lime?

  44. Becky says:

    NHL had:

    Team Pos Player
    1. BUF G 30 R.MILLER
    2. BUF L 20 D.PAILLE
    3.

    ???

    2 outta 3 ain’t bad.

  45. Wolf says:

    Robbie – per NHL.com, it was Miller and Paille. No 3rd star listed.

    http://www.nhl.com/scores/htmlreports/20072008/GS020861.HTM

  46. Wolf says:

    Oops – Becky beat me to it.

  47. twoeightnine says:

    It was Miller, Goose and Toskala. Paille got jobbed.

  48. twoeightnine says:

    At least that’s what was given last night on the broadcast.
