I cannot take seriously anyone who pronounces himself “Sage” of anything.

I remember … branching out into wine coolers, because the girls all liked ‘em. If you were holding one, she’d say, “D’you have more of those?” That’s when your buddy would wink and say, “told ya this would work.”

Smitty, World Be Free, Spud Webb, Smoothie and all you other guys - how is it we were talking about the Buffalo Sabres and beer for so long and I am just now thinking of The Earl of Bud? LMAO.

Smitty, HNIC was a pretty classy group until Cherry arrived. GAllivan was the best. Also, I like Gary Dornhofer and Mickey Redmond with HNIC. No idea where Dorny went; Mickey is in Detroit, but he’s turned into a real Red Wing homer. Nothing against the Wings, but whe was really good when he was objective and neutral.

The new HNIC No.1 guy, Jim Hughson was on CHCH in Hamilton before making it big in Vancouver.

I always liked the old HNIC announcers on Saturday nights. Foster and Bill Hewitt in Toronto, Danny Gallivan(the best) and Dick Irvin on Montreal. Ted Darling started out in Montreal then moved on to Buffalo. I always liked Rick Jenerrat but he was not as good as old Ted. Does Maximus Super ring a bell for anybody out there? That was a bad hangover.

The buzzes of our youth were the cheap ones!

Man, I didn’t know there were that many bad beers out there. Just goes to show ya how far people will go to get a “buzz” on. Comedian Dennis Miller once opined, “If all the drugs on the planet disintegrated or were eradicated,” people would go out on to their front lawns and spin around real fast in a swivel chair until they got spit-faced disoriented.” Or words to this effect.

I guess we don’t have to worry about Kane going to the KHL.

Tom brings up a good point about players wanting to play here long term. Kovy’s signing will go along way towards legitimizing Atlanta as a desired hockey city, especially since nobody in Canada thinks it is going to happen. We were heading in that direction before the Heatley tragedy. I think that was the start of a difficukt time for the club.

Brendan-let’s not leave out Iron City, Iron City Light and the worst beer I ever drank, a beer called DUKE from northern Pennsylvania. Known as “The Prince of Pilsners”.
