After reading Squanto lamenting how sorry he was for offering that "cock" Connolly a beer, preferring instead to "kick him in the teeth", it set me to thinking: Has anybody else had an encounter with a Sabre, memorable or not.

My closest encounter was when Staford looked toward the section I was sitting in once. He was then inspired to not score a goal. That's about it!

By the way, Squanto, what was that beer story anyway?

i passed by ryan miller at wegmans once. we made eye contact and i gave him a nod. thats about it haha. oh and when i was about 10 or so gilmour gave me a puck after a pre-game skate once through one of those camera holes in the glass.

I was at Spot on Chippewa and Delaware when my girlfriend noticed Goose walking by.

Most people spot Miller or Goose on Elmwood or at Wegman's.

Hmm.
I saw Spacek at Wegman's once. He was buying Poptarts
And just last month I volunteered at a children's carnival and none other than Teppo Numminen brought his kids. We exchanged pleasantries/small talk, I think he knew I recognized him, on account of the fact I had my Sabres hat on.

Wegman's, seemingly, is where most Sabres have been spotted haha!

I would love to talk to Teppo in the wild...he seems like a guy who can hold a great convo.

Me and my cousin sat in front of Drew Stafford signing autographs for a while. Behind the rope right in his face just yelling "DREW! DREW! STAFFORD! STAFFORD!" then we left

Mike, Wegman's is a Rochester-based but prevalent-in-Buffalo grocery store. It's huge, and sooooo nice. Damn classy groceries.

Wegman's is the best. Better than Tops at the very least.

I see them a lot, actually. Just out and about... A lot of them come into where I work. I usually don't say much other than, "Good luck this season." or something of that nature. Sometimes I give them free movie tickets if I can do it without getting caught (I work at a movie theatre).

I see Ryan Miller and Drew Stafford the most. Stafford comes into where I work the most out of any other Sabre. And Ryan lives in the same area where a lot of my friends live and sort of around where I go to school so I'm down in that area a lot. We have a few mutual friends/acquaintances and I go to his Catwalk for Charity events every year and I talk to him there. But I usually don't approach him or whatever when he's out because I'm sure he gets that every single time he goes out, so I like to respect his privacy.

I actually just saw him yesterday and he still had the porn stache... Was really disappointed when I saw that he shaved today in his locker clean out interview.



UMMMM... It's the most amazing grocery store ever. EVARRRRR. I love Wegmans so much. It's funny because whenever I talk to someone who has moved away from Buffalo, they always talk about how much they miss Wegmans haha.

Yea, we didn't go to Goodbar, Caro. Just felt awkward to just go to see him in the wild
