This season was something special.
Memories were made at KeyBank Center and beyond that felt a little like magic, and brought our community together in old and new ways. Buffalo proved itself the hockey town it’s always been.
And now, the wagon rolls on.
This thing of ours is forever, Buffalo. And a new era of Sabres hockey is just beginning.💙💛

Playoff intensity, reimagined. Check out this AI-generated animated clip for the Buffalo Jr Sabres vs the Leamington Flyers series. Border Crossings and High Flying. Clear the runway! The Flyers are taking off with Walker (#27) at the helm, but the Jr. Sabres are crossing the border with one goal: total disruption. Alessi (#39) is standing tall for Buffalo—can Leamington’s offense find the gap?
A team that was in the Conference Championship game, making trades and has cap room. Oh yeah they are paying their QB $48M in 2026. I have been told numerous times that you can’t have all of this…
And… they have pick 13 in the draft!
Two firsts tonight.
Cole Miller gets his first OJHL goal and assist.
Anthony Aiello got his first two points in the OJHL with two assists.
Congratulations Cole and Anthony!
Future looks bright.
Moe Berg travelled to Switzerland to attend a lecture by the eminent German physicist Werner Heisenberg.
Berg`s mission was to determine how close the Nazis were to an operational atomic bomb, and if they were close, Moe Berg was to shoot Heisenberg and then kill himself.
But after listening to the lecture, Berg decided they were not all that close, and his mission was aborted.
Instead of killing him, Berg walked Heisenberg back to his hotel, picking his brain about physics along the way.
"Moe Berg’s crucial contribution to the war cause, was that he could offer Oppenheimer, General Leslie Groves and other Manhattan Project leaders “reassurance in some ways that there wasn’t something they were missing” regarding a potential German bomb".
Sam Kean
For his work with the OSS during World War 2, Berg was awarded the "Medal of Freedom".
Moe Berg turned it down!!
"Maybe I’m not in the Cooperstown Baseball Hall of Fame like so many of my baseball buddies, but I’m happy I had the chance to play pro ball and am especially proud of my contributions to my country.
Perhaps I could not hit like Babe Ruth, but I spoke more languages than he did"
Morris "Moe" Berg.
Catcher, served as a spy for the Office of Strategic Services during WWII.
"The brainiest guy in baseball and the strangest man ever to play baseball.
He can speak seven languages, but he can’t hit in any of them."
Casey Stengel.
"I know Moe that you are in counterintelligence, which I assume means you are against intelligence".
Red Smith interviews Moe Berg.
The 1934, the 'Connie Mack All-Star' tour of Japan was a pivotal, 18-game exhibition series in November-December 1934 featuring legends like Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, and Jimmie Foxx
Moe Berg wassn’t there for his ability to play, but to spy.
While playing tourist in Japan, Berg takes hidden photos of important military and industrial sites for the U.S. Government, photos which will come in handy during WWII.
"If he wasn’t real, you’d have to invent him"
ALWAYS, ALWAYS in my HOF!!!!!!
Bills made the bold move to fire their HC after another very good season
they wanted a big change to finally get to & win a Super Bowl
...then they got scared, and:
kept the same GM
kept the same offense
promoted same OC to HC
not sure how these are the big moves that achieve their goal
anticlimactic & feels uninspiring
