I like you Chad and your podcast would be much improved with a co-host.
I have tried to contact the operators of the website Expected Buffalo regarding my concurring month charge that I am unable to cancel on their site several times now via Twitter (they don’t have any other forms of contact of course) and have received zero response as my replies get filtered as spam due to how they are worded. I’m probably going to have to buy Twitter Premium to Direct Message one of them directly because neither of them can be bothered to check their replies. I shouldn’t have to... more
Intelligent and informed conversation backed up with solid analytic information all about this hockey team. Told from two fans that are honest yet hopeful about the Sabres now and in the future. Very entertaining interaction and s must listen for real fans of the Blue and Gold aka Black and Red !

Two hosts analyze Buffalo Sabres hockey through an analytics-driven lens, blending numbers with game context, roster building, and off-season strategy. Episodes consistently explore roster moves, goaltending projections, draft and free agency rumors, and long-form weekend explorations of mock offseasons, often peppered with humor and community-driven banter. A distinctive angle is the strong emphasis on analytics alongside eye-test observations, plus a willingness to entertain creative scenarios and cross-promo content, which can be especially compelling for listeners who want practical takeaways for fans, sponsors, or guests in hockey analytics and media. Potential listeners who crave data-informed discussion with accessible storytelling m... more
