Sabres Set Up For Exciting Stretch Run

Sabres Set Up For Exciting Stretch Run

Author: Blue Wire January 31, 2023 Duration: 1:34:44

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by writer and podcaster Joe Yerdon for their weekly chat, today centered on the Buffalo Sabres being set up for an exciting stretch of February games but an ugly offseason looming for Buffalo Bills fans.

The Sabres are right in the thick of a potential wild card race with just one game remaining before a 10 day break that precedes a nine game in 18 days stretch afterward. Joe has plenty of thoughts on what’s went right for Buffalo, Casey Mittelstadt turning the corner with his play and what it may take to trade for a big time NHL star.

The guys also spend time talking the Bills, including the realization that they’re clearly the third best team in the AFC as things stand, why there’s probably no quick fix in terms of roster addition and testiness from fans growing by the day. That plus they go over some biggest pet peeves, favorite teenage bands, low energy meals and much more.

There's a particular kind of passion that comes from following Buffalo sports, a mix of unwavering hope and hardened realism that Talking Buffalo captures perfectly. Hosted by Buffalo-born Patrick Moran, this Blue Wire podcast dives deep into the heart of the city's teams, with a primary focus on the emotional rollercoasters provided by the Bills and Sabres. Patrick doesn't just report on games; he lives them, offering a perspective that can swing from critical skepticism to full-blown optimism in a single conversation. That authentic, sometimes self-deprecating fan voice is exactly what drives each episode. The show regularly features interviews with guests from across the sports world, media, and even pop culture, providing unique angles and insider insights you won't find elsewhere. It’s this blend of local passion, candid analysis, and diverse conversations that gives the podcast its character. You'll hear the highs, the lows, and all the gritty commentary in between, all filtered through the experience of someone who truly understands what it means to invest in these teams. For anyone who bleeds blue and red or simply appreciates the complex narrative of a sports city, Talking Buffalo feels like a conversation with a knowledgeable, and admittedly opinionated, friend.
