I'm glad to see that I am not the onyl one sick & tired of listening to this two idiots behind the mic on the Bruins feed. In the last game the color commentator was calling for a penalty shot to be called when Numminen tripped that Bruin before he got to the loose puck at center ice, and kept arguing for a penalty shot, even after acknowledging he never had possession of the puck.
Anyone else getting sick of them painting Briere as some kind of out-of-control menace? "Typical Briere fashion?"
I think they were right about that Brierre stick on Thomas. That probably should have been 4 min to Briere and 2 to Boynton, but nonetheless this guys have been AWFUL.
I did just catch that "typical Brierre" fashion - like Danny is known league-wide as a guy that runs goalies! Why would someone run a goalie on a breakway! Being the home announcers is one thing, but these guys are atrocious! I also got the intermission analysis and they did not like the holding call that made it 4-3 for a few seconds; yet, Jay McKee got called for just an awful of hold call in the same period.

January 30, 1977
The Sabres have made it back to snowbound Buffalo after the previous night's tie in Montreal, but this day's home game with the Los Angeles Kings is called off. The Blizzard of '77, which kills 29 people, rages on.
January 30, 1986
The Sabres trade Larry Playfair, Sean McKenna and Ken Baumgartner to the L.A. Kings for Brian Engblom and Doug Smith.
Engblom....is he not that goofball with the hair that used to do analyst work when ESPN2 covered hockey?
-
leave it to the announcers to say that a blatent tripping call against the leafs was a "non call". anyways, we've got a 5 on 3 so do it up sabres.
the main play-by-play guy is a douche, but I have not heard harry neale say much? besides he is also a buffalo guy, right or he at least lives there.
-
He does that a lot when on the PP.
i realize i am properly being bias now b/c i just can't stand the guy, but is it just me? the guy just absolutely frustrates the hell out of me. so much skill but he just seems stupid?!
-
5-4 Buffalo on a Leafs SH goal. Kalinin gives the puck up on at the offensive blue line and then doesn't get back on the backcheck. He is a waste of space IMO.
-
This home town officiating is a bunch of BS.
Are you fugging kidding me making that call on Grier to put the Sabres down two players? That is absolutely awful. YOu can't make a call like that when a team is down one...pathetic. friggin pathetic.
-
i understand the buffalo fan's instinctual need to be negative and bitchy, but this is a little over the top. but rather than duke it out with you point-by-point, i would just add two points.
1. we haveone of the top records in the league while playing a bunch of very young players who are only going to get better. this gives me optimism about our future as a real cup contender. will it happen this year? maybe, maybe not, but we damn near won it all a few years ago with a team that is not as good as this one.
2. briere was one of the top scorers in the league when healthy and will be back before the playoffs. i understand if you don't want to count him as a "top-50 scorer," because technically he isn't. but he sure as hell is a top-50 player.
I could not have said it any better myself. The only team that Buffalo appears to be overmatched against is Ottawa and just about every team in the league can probably say the same thing; but then again who knows? We have not played them since early in the year.
Any chance that the "Let's Go Buffalo" chants could be heard last night on tee-vee? There was a great group of Sabre fans in the 300's although every time we go that chant going it was usually drowned out by "boo's" a minute later!
-
Maybe that one goal was a pile of crap, but you people are absolutely sickening. Any time the Sabres lose you start making excuses before the game is even over. The team went out West and generally played like ass, deal with it, it's what actually happened.
The worst thing about that stupid goal is that I'll have to listen to people cry about it for a goddamn month or two.
i don't know if i am still hunover, but i just read through this complete thread and don't think anybody made it sound as though they were going to carry on for the next two months?!? where did you draw that conclusion? we only do that when it is game 6 of a Cup final.
as for that play imo it looked like he was trying to kick the puck up to this stick - not towards the net - evidenced by regehrs swinging his stick just as it crossed the line so since he did not intential direct it towards the net. i think that is why it was not reversed.
that play and the atrocious call that put them down two men - i can not remember that it was - totally took everything out of them. too bad b/c they should have tried to use that to inspire them.
heading to MSG with about 30 fans from the NYCity Buffalo Bills Backers on Tuesday so hopefully we can make some noise!!
-
thats whats driving me insane.
that was a pathetic shorthanded goal. pominville did nothing but sit and watch that puck go in. if you haven't noticed, last games atrocious powerplay effort has carried over. it's alarming, that's all.
Max just skated right by Burrows. Roy was the only one who seemed to make a legit backcheck
-
Celino and Barnes? One of them got suspended by the bar. HA
yeah, that was them! how funny that one of them got busted. i just can't imagine get booked for something and thinking those two were my last resort.
ok guys, enjoy the game. it is moving quick enough to stay awake but time to leave the computer!
GO SABRES!
.....wow, that was a great effort by the kid from Vancouver to score that goal.
-
i'd take william mattar 3x/period with RJ over molson commercials and these craptastic canadian announcers.
i haven't been living in buffalo for a few years. what ever happened to those two jerks who had billboards and commercials all over buffalo? they seemed like a living Sat Night Live skit
-
Woah, did anyone else see that McCarty and Souray fight? Crazy!
balls...must have just missed, but just watched the Flamers kill off the 5-3 so they should go in to the INT up 3-1. Hopefully they lose and we pick up a point on Sens who lost tonight in shootout.
-
I wish I knew why we are all in the minority when it comes to our interest in hockey. I love sitting here flipping between all of these hockey games, especially when games are in places like Calgary, Edmonton, Minny, Detroit, etc. and of course, Buffalo.
I just don't get why this sport is below golf, wrestling, and women's softball on the fan interest level. As I say that though, I do think a big part of it is the NHL does a horrible job marketing. They need to somehow get a stick in a kids hand everywhere in the U.S., just the way every kid throws a football, shoots a basket, or plays stickball...
-
Gaustad with the hard hit. I love it.
Let's see if we can score on this powerplay. 2nd in the league!
dude, who is that in that 'avatar' of yours?!!?
-
Does anyone else think this Molson ad is great?
Speaking of Molsons....nothing better then putting the wife and dog to bed, cracking a cold one and watching some West Coast hockey!
...I really can't stand Kalinin.....I am sure I am biased by now, but he just does not seem to get it. That is a "prospect" I could part ways with for a veteran....
-
By the way, anyone notice the way the whole team came back out after the "3 Stars" announcement? I thought that was a pretty cool move by the players and shows how much they appreciate having an energized arena.
-
9-1 pominville with a hat trick!!!
edit: it took me 3 goals to get JP's name correct.
I think we might have seen why Lindy chose to use Pominville in the shootout the other night...
Tough road trip coming up but the games are spread out over two weeks. Let's go Sabes!
-
5-1 right now. There wasn't much Miller could do, it was a 2-1.
the only thing Miller could have done there is not have Kalinin on the ice...
my 1st period observations
- just as "low" as some people thought we were the past few weeks, we can not consider this a "high"
- back to Kalinin, when you are last guy back like that, you HAVE to make sure the puck gets through. he shot it right in to the legs of a King defender. i'm tired of waiting for this guy to come around
- somebody, hopefully Peters, better give Avery what he deserves for taking swipes at Miller like he did
-
agreed. all of these sell-out games and we can't score. we need to win this last home game for the sake of salvaging this home stretch. thought we were going to rip off 4 out of the 6 at least.
ironic geoff sanderson scored the goal...i thought that guy was as much a part of history as the Whaler franchise....
-
And down goes Roy :(
That's three injuries tonight...
What are the 3 injuries tonight?!??! You've got to be kidding me?!?!
-
the sabres have been out scored 80-68 at even strength!
...not that it matters, but i wonder what those numbers look like if you back out those 3 Ottawa games....
-
after listening to crappy everclear bills as the warm up, its time for the rolling sabres stones.
oops... 1-0 quickly forida. neuwendyke (sp) scored on miller
just got back from the Meadowlands where everything is clear and consise about the future of Buffalo's other pro team...
Here's hoping the Sabre perform better...they tri-state area Bills fans can't wait for the Sabres/Rangers on 1/24!!!
-
overtime!! after being down 0-2, its now tied at 2... stay tuned
YEAH BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!
It could/would never happen, and I would not want it to happen, but 4-on-4 hockey is awesome.
Nice work tonight boys!
Props to Timmy Connolly's continued great play and also Marty Biron and Brian Campbell.
Kalinin continues to disappoint me.
...and I really like Gaustad. I think he, McKee and Mair are the only guys that still hit.
-
i was shooting for the sarastic angle my friend!
That call on Mair was WEAK! I'm all for what the league is trying to do, but calls that put teams down two players have been weak and that is right in line with them.
damn that overrated Chris Drury.....

My biggest wish for today is that the folks at DirectV/Center Ice gives us the MSG feed and not Jack Edwards and the assclowns at NESN again....
