Very informative, I like these guys
The show could use a little more production, but it’s a great listen for solid info and analysis.
How refreshing to have an analytical, unemotional discussion about the conundrum that is the Buffalo Sabres. Appreciate the informed opinions. But I am missing some prospect talk, Kris!
This is easily the best show going for Sabres coverage and insight. Fairburn is my favorite reporter on the Sabres beat and does incredible work covering the team. Kris Baker has the best prospect insight and together they nail the state of the Sabres in a much needed way! Great show… usually watch on YouTube.
Where are you guys? What a couple of slackers… It’s been a whole month plus get back on the horse/horses.
