In celebration of the "holiday", here's a 3-minute April Fools' Day clip from a Sabres telecast in 1985. Sabres broadcaster and former player Mike Robitaille and legendary NHL referee Bruce Hood break out the latest technology, and Pete Weber (currently the play-by-play voice of the Nashville Predators) discusses the art of hooking with Greg (father of Ryan) Malone.

Sabres News And Notes: Regier On The Big Three

Darcy Regier met with the media in the press box just before Buffalo's shootout loss to the Capitals last night and was asked about his mindset going forward with Thomas Vanek, Ryan Miller and Jason Pominville.
Listening to numerous Regier interviews over the years has made it pretty easy on occasion to foretell the future, and the implied message here was clear: It’s practically a foregone conclusion that at least one of those three players will become an ex-Sabre sometime between now and September.

Report: Regier Interested In Kings’ Toffoli

We've been seeing plenty of names on Buffalo's roster reported in trade talks, but not much has been mentioned in the way of whom they'd like to get back.
An aritcle this morning did indeed bring up the name of a promising young prospect attracting interest from the Sabres.

Sabres Observer Radio: Are You In?

In this edition of Sabres Observer Radio, I debate with Joe Pinzone the possibility that Darcy Regier may be forced to adjust his thinking on the trade deadline.
We're joined on the show by beat writer Bill Hoppe of the Olean Times Herald, and we finish things off with a little fun talking about a Buffalo News column from Sunday that called for 15 former Sabres to be given jobs in the hockey department.

While it's no secret that Robyn Regehr, Jordan Leopold and Drew Stafford are being mentioned in trade talks, a report last night hinted that the Sabres could be putting a bigger name than all three of them on the block.

Ruff In Tampa Would Be Compelling
by @DaveDavisHockey on 03/24/13 at 12:48 PM ET

Imagine how interesting hockey life would be in Buffalo if a team coached by Lindy Ruff came into First Niagara Center - say, three weeks from today - to battle the Sabres in a game with major playoff implications.
With an opening created this morning courtesy of the Tampa Bay Lightning, that scenario may not be so far-fetched.
