    Any preferred place Sabre fans going before hand? My party of three will be at Brick City Bar and Grill...

    I'll be lucky to make the opening faceoff because of work,.. stupid work.

     

    When you're at the arena, check out the lines to get Molsen Canadian. It's really funny, they are the longest in the building and they are filled with all Sabres fans.

    I'll be there again. I liked the results last time, of course, Brrrrrrodeur didn't start and Kovalchuk was a healthy scratch.

     

    I can't believe that the Devils have not missed the playoffs since 1995. :blink:

     

    EDIT:I guess I don't have to worry about Brrrrrodeur again. He's still hurt.

    Seriously, he should be known on this board as Ethron from now on. It's just too cool of a misspell. I AM ETHRON. I HAVE COME TO DESTROY YOUR AIR CANADA CENTRE. TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER.

    I thought it was some obscure reference to a utilities trading company based in Texas. It makes more sense as Tron's hockey playing brother.

    atdhe.net... with the usual caveat -- it may or may not be legal or ethical to watch this way.

    My thoughts are F the legal or ethical thing. I tried with both the NFL and the NHL. They both didn't deliver what they promised. I paid for Center Ice and went to watch the NHL network this afternoon to set up the DVR for tonight and for some reason I don't get it. I called and it will be 24 to 48 hours before someone gets back to me. The NFL on the go I straight up canceled because I couldn't get a single game.

     

    My first choice is always to pay the money. I would rather pay no matter how much and not be bothered (I'm lucky enough to afford it), but they haven't yet delivered what they promised. As strange as this might seem, you can always find a bootleg feed and they are WAY more reliable.

     

    Gotta love corporate America, overcharge and under-deliver.

    But he continues to hand the puck directly to the opposition? He's having brain farts on a regular basis and its costing us. Something isn't right.

    I agree. I hope he's just drunk or something and it's not that he's suffering some post concussion effects. Something is definitely not right, even for him.

    Yeah, I am getting really tired of all those scoring chances he generates.

     

    That's his game, he will over handle the puck several times a game, but he's no max. He moves the puck and has much better vision than max did even before the concussion. He set up our first goal on a perfect pass, set up vanek perfectly, and had a great break away. He battles hard in the corners and actually wins some despite weighing a buck thirty. What more do you want out of the kid besides a real hockey number?

    He had a great game, no doubt, and he's a great player, no doubt,... it's not enough.

    I feel the same way. At least the Bills are showing signs of getting better. They get rid of players who just don't have it (Trent, Marshawn, Ellis, etc.). The Sabres are on a slow downward spiral to nowhere with this roster. If ever a big trade was needed, it is now... but Darcy doesn't have the balls to pull it off.

    At least the Bills admit they are bad. Lindy's pounding his fist saying they will make the playoffs. Wake up, dummy.

    That's not realistic at all -- actually a tad ridiculous. I get your point, and most of the board shares your wish for a more physical style of play, but you can't just go after people for clean hits. I know we rarely get to see it, but hitting IS part of the game and is not beyond the rules. If you want the Sabres to take a retaliatory penalty for every hit then we're going to need to get a hell of a lot better on the PK, since that unit will spend at least 30 minutes a game on the ice.

    It wasn't as clean as you say. Vanek was already engaged with another player when Subban went low. My only complaint is that Stafford didn't knock him unconcious.
