Olofsson for 2 years was half assing it and not caring at all. He would float around and not really skate.

He could score 100 goals this year and I wouldn’t care

Olofsson carrying the puck, taking a hit, then scoring is something we never saw a single time in Buffalo.

I am in the solar industry...don't go solar for storm backups. When it's dark, you won't produce. The only way around that is batteries and even for just essential loads, that can go quickly if you don't have multiple. Better off with a generator, I've had good luck with my clients suggesting Generac but not sure if they service Florida or not.

Most of all though, glad you made it out okay.

Im in the bulk power system reliability industry and I agree with all of this.

Solar could be a good method if you pair it with a fairly large (or maybe two) battery systems and make sure they are topped off before a storm. But like quinn said... if its dark you're not charging and I can't imagine solar panels on a roof would hold up too well to 120+ MPH.

The safest/most reliable/unfortunately most expensive option would be a full home diesel generator with a tank on your property hooked directly into your main with a UPS.

It's amazing to me how former sabres players look under real coaches and how new sabres devolve to typical bad habits after coming here.

Byram's first few games with the sabres were phenomenal and then he regressed to fit right in with the sabres lack of execution and effort.

JJ Peterka won't be in the Sabres' lineup tonight and Zach Benson will be a game-time decision.

Ruff anticipates that Benson will be good to go.

Racking has gotten better, so we can prevent panels from flying away in most cases. Had one of those tornados a couple months back roll over a ground mount, cracked a couple panels, but they all stayed put. That being said, unless battery incentives are much better in Florida (unlikely) then it'd cost way more.

someone earlier mentioned Manasota Key.
They took a big hit with crazy storm surge.

Earned the opportunity to play, if there are multiple injuries. Forward depth is already looking a little ragged two game in. If Benson can't go tonight, looking at 7D.

Obviously he needs to do more, needs to show he belongs. Yeah, sucks with all the high picks we still don't seem to have depth

Thank you 306 and Quinner.

I calculated I would need about 13kW of power to handle the start up load on my AC. While running the rest of the house (fans, appliances, etc.) and I want:
a) inverter Generator so it's clean electricity
b) run off Natural Gas so it can run long with no refilling necessary.
When you package all he costs together of Tru-fuel Generator, Electric Cords for 50A,
Electrician for wiring in the Transfer Switch, Plumbing for Nat Gas Kit, looking at around $4k-$5k.

Using this Hurricane to evaluate the need as this will end up being among the worst situations to deal with... Although being Middle October has helped with lower temperatures to deal with.

I heard they're giving out new roof bobbleheads tonight
- Hank Balling


Correction. They are giving out paint chips from the old roof. Bobble heads are too expensive

And somehow, fans see this, the GM doesn’t, and the d coach responsible is still behind the bench….

Is it just it’s a life suck playing for this team under Terry?

How many players have to admit they hated playing here? It’s been countless it seems.

The Sabres are a hell hole.

Who, other than Eichel and Ville Leino, has said they hated playing here?
