  1. I believe we will see Esche in net to start for the Cryers. I don't think that this will last more than 2 games if the sabres can skate like we know they can.

     

    Ken scares me too as well as that @#&^% bobby clark. I can see them "stealing" away at least one game when the refs put away the whistle and revert back to the old style of the NHL.

     

    If the sabres can skate and get behind the slow Cryer defense (Hatcher is slow as hell now) the sabres should win in 6 games.

  2. The problem I would have with this game looking at it from the Sabres side would be who do I start in net? Do you rest Millar and start Biron or play Miller and say the hell to rest and ride the hot hand into the playoffs? Tuff call for me, I would say play Miller hope the guys show up in front of him and keep his confidence up but Im not that one behind the bench.

  3. ok my take on the game from watching them for the first time. They played much better than they have been. Effort from a lot more players than against the rangers, however some still feel like they can stand around or next to there teammates.

     

    The first goal was BS, we have good pressure in the devils zone but a sabres was tripped up when the devils started the rush up the ice, which should been called in the "new" NHL. Then I guess it was Tillander (sp) lost his man on the back door just long enough for him to get the tip. Biron not at fault at all.

     

    The rest of that period and the second was a good effort by the boys but we couldn't get anything high quality on goal. We NEED to stop cross ice passes outta our own zone, soooo many give aways on those also the passing outta the zone needs to be better. Either the devils just knew our break out or the sabres just didn't make it clean enough.

     

    I saw a reoccuring play the devils tried which teams might be beating us on but I don't know since I don't watch all the games. They run one guy near our net and a second in the high slot where the sabres run the center. Now this player from the devil screens the shot or interfers with the sabres from getting to lose pucks on the boards. This is where the battle was for this game.

     

    For the 3rd period the sabres where showing that they played a game the day before. I don't remember the second goal to well but I didn't think marty was to blame for that one either. The 3rd was the worst he had no clue all on him. A few general comments, Greir is a waste, he is slow and can't be with drury. Drury can and should center a more powerful line, once he passed to greir to take it in the zone and turned it over, he is a killer. Also Pyatt has a good hard shot too bad he just doesn't seem in the right place at the right time to make a play. Lastly I saw a sabres fan leaving from my section last night 234 and a few devils fans where saying some dirty launguage lets say :) . Best part of the game was a sabres fan with this "Were in 4th place!" A large Sabres fan group for this game which was nice to see.

  4. If tonight is the night that the sabres right the ship then miller needs to be in net. Any issues with biron and miller should be done and not brought back into the spot light. Miller starts tonight and I will listen to the game so the sabres will lose, sorry guys.

     

    Oh ps. I will be at the devils game on Thrusday section 234 I believe, Ill be in my new red jersey with the huge swords on the front.
