I hope you all enjoyed your summer, because the 2007-2008 Sabres season is coming upon us faster than a Tomas Vanek slapshot. First off, I want to welcome all the new members to the email list, especially the 50+ that have joined in the last month.
The Sabres had a tough offseason with the loss of Drury and Briere and the attempted poaching of Vanek, but with Ruff and Miller the Sabres still need to be considered one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference. I'll have more on the upcoming season later, but wanted to draw your attention to a couple of exciting upcoming events.
Ice Bowl If you haven't heard yet, on New Years Day the Sabres and Penguins will be playing an outdoor game at Ralph Wilson Stadium. This should be an incredible event and if you, like me, want to be there, tickets go on sale tomorrow morning at 10am. Tickets are on sale at Ticketmaster and everyone is expecting them to go quickly. Here's the link to the Ticketmaster site, as well as some more info on the game:

Season Opener The season begins on Friday Oct. 5 with a home and home against the Islanders. The means you'll get to see our boys on Oct. 6th in Long Island. Tickets are currently on sale at Ticketmaster. At this point we are not planning to get group tickets for the game so if you are interested in going feel free to get your seats now. In addition, one of our members let me know he has 4 extra seats to the game. Let me know if you are interested and I will pass his info along.
I'll be in touch soon with a season preview and more info about our game watches.
Go Sabres!
Kevin
