Now this is a different GDT. Ok then, I'm in with the majority. This is a must lose game. Need to hold on firmly to that last place finish..... Now if this goes like the season has so far, when we all wanted wins we got losses. So if majority here is hoping for a loss I fully expect they'll win...

Bad boy's, grammer boy's, than whatcha gonna do when they come for u... Bad boys, grammar boys, then what are you going to do when they come for you....

Yes this is exactly what I saw on this play as well. Anderson went at Larry to stop him down and when he realized he whiffed he dropped like a wet dish rag.

Me thinks the league scheduled it like this expecting the Sabres to be playing better than they have. The idea being with playoffs on line within the division between two rivals this is where you usually get some good spirited play.. Lets Go Buffalo Yes, and double yes. I really do not like the leafs fans from my days at games in the Old Memorial Aud. IMHO between the trash talking and almost brawls they are the least hospitable of our Canadian fan neighbors.

Yep center ice lets me record otherwise too late for us east coasters.was a great game Pens devils having a good tilt right now. Also checking in on the Preds and Jets to see how they playing heading into playoffs

Man oh man we sure do love ourselves some Sabres Hockey here. I only wish the passion you all displayed for the treatise you guys have poured out here was shared by the same hockey players and team we all love to hate right now. Oh I get it but I just can't get that worked up anymore over something truly outside my ability to control that has been going on this long. Please carry on!

I live in the north hills an appropriate choice since according these Yinzers, Buffalo is the great white North. No offense to you Hosers which of course we all know is the true Great White North.. :flirt:

Great story. Yes and Yes and in complete agreement with turning off the music on Disco Dan's act.

Well call me a homer but I will root for my second favorite team that's in it since I live in Daberg Pens vs Vegas Marc Andre against his old team and he wins it for Vegas.

This is why I come to this board. Great analysis and presented well. Thanks for the work and keeping the faith.

I'm in to see if the team that came home is the same one one we saw on the road. Lets see what you got Buffalo.

Hahaha, Wow how sad is it that's all we got left to do in a game time thread but figure out ways to Pun fun at these unlovable losers. I am guessing Chad (aren't you sad you didn't stay with the flames) in net tonight. Might root for Johnny Hockey and I'm guessing the flames to burn the Sabres 5-4.

Yes at least there is a little hope in the pipeline for the team. Looks like a Darcy long shot may have finally payed off with Linus being a 6th rounder in 2012. And begrudgingly XGMTM did good for once picking Guhle in the 2nd in 2015, looks like he's the defensive minded Dmen he was looking for.

Glad to see the symbolism was noticed and I would say he did add a spark. Best looking goaltender I've seen for Buffalo this year. But agree with all here who say send him back to Amerks to let him and Guhle continue to play in a positive winning atmosphere.

All in favor of a change of fortune for the team by inserting... into the lineup. Let the electricity flow tonight, Go Sabres.

Haha, yeah looking back at the trade its easy to see which team is farther along.. Though I wonder did the Sabre's really have that much farther to come back from over the last 3 years or did we just do a bad job with the picks and trades since then. ZFG where are you now? Lets go Buffalo, lets give the fans something to cheer about..

Fake news. :P What good hockey players don't want to play for a winner. Now not saying many others will still be left standing but, Jack, Risto, and maybe McCabe would be fine I'm sure..

Its all good. This it what happens when we have no good hockey team to root for. Talk about Paranoia, when the Sabre's do finally make another SC final I expect Armageddon to break loose.

Paranoia strikes deep Into your life it will creep It starts when you're always afraid Step out of line, the men come and take you away We better stop Hey, what's that sound? Everybody look - what's going down?

I am going to go with passionate super frustrated vs paranoid. Yeah I know its easy to say coulda, shoulda, woulda, but some here would nail him if he railed on his team not able to score goals for him even when he stands on his head. So in a heated passionate frustrated moment he takes it to the league which has had its fair share of questionable calls and moments against the team. Does look bad like a whiner sore loser, sure but when you wear your emotions on your sleeve like he does I think you need to give him some time before drilling him with questions and how he feels because the filter is usually off. I am not going all the way to saying it proves they believe they are cursed and cannot win and he has accepted that outcome... I guess this is what it's come too, when all we have is to scrutinize every players Psych when the team continues to struggle as it has. Fruit cakes all of them, from coach to water boy fire them all I say, off with their heads....

Sam is still young and with proper training why can’t he still get better at a lot of things including a bit faster. I for one would like him to add some muscle to his frame and he could be a lot harder on the forecheck. I think it would create more space for him if he added some Grit to his game like his bud Kane. Maybe Kane’s could teach him boxing. Now that’s a role model I would take on my team.

lol, you made me think of this. Its your fault. Oh these sad Sabres kittens have lost their mittens, And they began to cry, Oh, Phil dear, we sadly fear Our mittens we have lost What? Lost your mittens, you naughty kittens! Then you shall have no pie. Mee-ow, mee-ow, mee-ow. We shall have no pie. Our mittens we have lost.

Yeah I sure will watch to see if the new favorite whipping boy can get back to Sam I am on the one of the top lines with more minutes. I would also like to see them be hard to play against at home and come away with a win for the home town. Go Sabres.
