    Vaclav Varada! I nicknamed him "The Human Missle" Hahaha Dude was flying out there hammering opponents. Buffalo hasn't had that type of player in forever!

    As a whole the Sabres are winning the battle of hits in almost every game.  Risto may not be Vasclav Varada, but the bone jarring check on Crosby tonight I'm sure got the attention of the Pens HC and the entire Penguin Hockey team.  Its one of the reasons I'm not buying into the notion its a team just going through the motions. Its a team out of sync IMO.

    How does every team seem to find excellent starting goalies, and good backups? Yet the Sabres have to rely on AHL and ECHL bums to play goal? 

    I think we may have a good backup now and starter in Ullmark

    Doubtful any goalie stops the 2 goals scored so far tonight IMO.

    Can we connect on multiple consecutive passes tonight?

    Will the defence be aware of their positioning?

    Do the skaters make line changes diligently?

    Are their beach balls which our goalies can stop?

    For the answers to these and other imponderable questions, tune in tonight.  Same Bad Time!  Same Bad Channel!

    But word of warning: the answers depend on the character of the players!

    Myself personally, I think the Sabres will play well tonight IMO.

    If you lose 12 in a row, nothing you do in the 13th can be considered a drop off.

    After being named interim coach Granato was not even able to address the team until 2 hours before puck drop.

    The intensity and consistency from a defensive standpoint the Sabre's had displayed overall in the last handful of games for the most part was missing. Hits went down along with shots on goal. From a win/loss standpoint I understand where you are coming from. As far as effort  goes, I respectfully disagree Curt.

    Thanks buddy, for the reply.
