Myeeerrrrsssss!
-
5 consecutive overtime games. That has to be at least approaching the record, right?
-
I've gotta believe we've got the worst combined special teams percentages in the league.
-
Crap.
Ever since our series against Boston last season, we can't hold a goddamn lead.
-
By the way, Montador is up to +14 on the season with that goal. PLUS-14! How is that possible on a team that's underachieved so badly to start the season.

Does anyone think Stafford will be back with TV and Roywhen healthy?
I sincerely hope he's not. Roy, Vanek, Ennis are beginning to look like our first true "number one line" since 2007.

Objective #1: Win
Objective #2: Do it in regulation, so I can stop pulling my hair out. :D
-
no
Yes. Nobody is immune. Myers has been even more disappointing than Connolly and that's a pretty big accomplishment this season.
-
Bring on Calgary.
I too wish we were playing Calgary next. Unfortunately for us, it's Vancouver.
Great win tonight. The team is still struggling in a lot of elements, but they are also showing the necessary grit to put notches in the W column.
-
Well, they got their point
Gotta admit, the one point is more than I was expecting. That doesn't mean I'm going to be satisfied if it's only the one point, however.

Please, for the love of god, win this game...

Why is Miller starting? You have a goalie that just won 5 out of 6 points? Enroth should keep playing. The Sabres could have their own Rask/Thomas situation here.
I agree that Miller shouldn't be playing if he's unhealthy. But if he is healthy, it's not as if Enroth was lighting the world on fire. Made a few key saves, sure, and prevented games from getting out of hand, but he did allow 9 goals during that 3-game stretch you mentioned.
-
That's so sad and so true :(
And unfortunately, it's exactly the reason we'll lose this game. The Sabres' good periods involve us scrapping for pucks, getting a bunch of pucks on goal and exiting with a 1-0 lead or tied 1-1 for the period. Washington, on the other hand, will go up 3-0 on you before you have a chance to get home and turn on the tv. Their explosiveness combined with our penalty kill issues spells bad news for me.
Hopefully I'm dead wrong.
-
On the one hand, we have to win at home at some point right?
On the other hand, I seriously doubt we'll kick that monkey off our back against the league's best offense, unless Miller shakes off the rust quickly and has a superstar performance.
4-2 Capitals.

Lol, okay let's not get too carried away here. Kovalchuk is still a Top 10 (maybe Top 5) player in the game. You know you would have welcomed him with open arms had we signed him, so don't act all "HAHA YOU WERE WRONG, I WAS RIGHT" about him just yet.
Kovalchuk may be a Top 5 scorer, but not even close to a Top 10 player. Case in point, his negative 81 career plus/minus.
-
I'll tell you one thing, Roy has played like a champion this season, despite the team's record.
Is this the team's first winning streak?
-
-
c'mon, Jhonas...
-
Ok, Thomas redeemed himself there!
-
Goddammit, Thomas.
-
Ok, credit where credit is due. Good period, gents. Keep it up!
-
The guy in the seat right behind you who screams SHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOTTT anytime the puck touches a stick on the power play. How I loathe him. Same guy who screams GET THE PUCK OUTTA THERE! during the entirety of a penalty kill.
The worst is when the great GITSBY (guy in the seat behind you) has a young son screaming the same thing because he wants to be just like his intolerable dad.

i dont want to play of the 4th line anymore. i deserve more ice time. i want to be called "A Bonafide All Star"
where is the MOD team who can handle this change? i will walk if i dont get this. what an injustice...slap on the face
I say we release him, do we really even want such a selfish player on the 3rd line?
My complaint is that I was going to enjoy my left-over general tso's chicken this morning (breakfast of champions), but when I woke up I discovered that one of my roommates had swiped it.

Well mind you that while I pride myself on eating every morsel of meat off 'dem bones, these aren't the meatiest wings around. (Although.....decent. Fatheads is the best I've had in Pittsburgh; this was at Buffalo Blues.) I actually ate 51 wings on my birthday back in September. So last night, somewhere between Wing 32 and Wing 37 I had ordered another half dozen while also recalling the trauma I had suffered during my 51-wing performance. So I decided to spare myself a little misery and smuggle them out for another day. It wasn't really that hard... they were served in a little cardboard basket, so I used the previous basket as a top for the one I smuggled out (you might be able to tell that I'm a Mechanical Engineer ;) ), and my housemate made sure they didn't spill while I drove home.
And for the doubters, I have also been known to consume 1.0 pounds of pasta in a sitting, as well as a disc of beer (4.5 to 5 beers total) in 1:09. But the real reason for all the room in belly is that I drink a ton of water -- typically five quarts a day during the season. (I play ultimate frisbee... it's not too popular in WNY yet...) Curious... anyone else on here play ultimate?
I play ultimate, not competitively but just whenever I get the chance. I'm deadly accurate with a disc and I can catch very well, but speed and jumping aren't my strong suits. Have you ever played kan-jam? It's a local thing so you've probably heard of it. If you're an accurate frisbee tosser, it'd be a good game for you. I brought my kan jam cans to Cornell and my friends and I from home are trying to integrate it on campus.

The Bad: We can't seem to close out teams in regulation like last season.
The GOOD: 9 out of our 10 last points. 4 out of 4 points against two serious Stanley Cup contenders. Vanek didn't score tonight, but he played his best game of the season. By a lot.
