The Scizz

As some of you avid readers may remember, during the exciting Sabres off-season, I did some hard hitting journalistic research to see what many of our current and former Sabres players were up to in their lives. It took hours upon hours of phone calls, e-mails, long road trips, and preparing legal documentation in order to construct the posts known as "Buffalo Sabres: Where Are They Now?". Also, that's all a lie and it took only about an hour of compiling tweets from fellow bloggers, and making up several more on my own. But we're a blog, so who gives a shit, right?

After the success of that series (which shall return one day), I decided to ask for some help from a few fellow bloggers again in discovering what many current and former Sabres are thankful for this holiday season. I should also note that I was going to do this with WGR employees, but most comments required them becoming red dots on a Google map, so I decided to pass for several legal reasons.
