Two shuts out!
I love Rayzor.

Risto has signed a lease inside Ovechkin's head.

Random thought: when was the last time the Sabres played a game at the FNC with something riding on it? Where there was anticipation behind it, and something tangible depending on the outcome?
The infamous game against Arizona that made Mike Weber nine kinds of sad. As I recall, no shortage of atmosphere for that game. As singular as that situation was, it tells me it's not the fans who are the problem. Simple solution. Put a product on the ice worthy of getting excited about, and people will get excited about it.

Someone really needs to have a word with Phil about his beard, though. Creepy.
-
Given the state of the Sabres offense, all goals should be considered to be primary scoring until further notice.
-
That better be an intentional offside, right?
Right.
-
Good lord I love Risto.
-
Back to back nights with a trip to Arizona on Monday. Understandable you'd switch in net.
-
Caps games, for some reason, are not blacked out live for me on gamecentre anymore. Will actually get to watch this one (or maybe not since I've said it out loud) I hope to see at least two goals out of the Sabres tonight.
Baby steps.

I really think the ASG is for kids and corporate schmoozing. If you're not eight years old or employed in upper management at some large company spending a ton of money on NHL related marketing, and thus collecting your free booze and swag over the course of the weekend, I don't get the appeal.

Anaheim absolutely taking Dallas to the woodshed. 4-0 with 4:23 left in the first. Lindy is doing that thing where his entire head turns beet red. Memories....
Edit: not firing Julien seems to have been a good choice. For all the wailing and gnashing of teeth earlier in the season, they're only three points out of a playoff spot right now.
-
Lehner starts tonight. Let's strap in and see how this ride goes. Hopefully longer than ten minutes...
-
Strange that they're top 3rd in goals against, but terrible on the PK. You'd think those two stats would be similar.
DFL in PIMs per game, per NHL.com. Probably accounts for the variance.

As long as Buffalo is sniffing 30th place, GMTM will be willing to move anyone for the right price. I'm OK with that. He hasn't touched the roster since the draft. This current group has had plenty of time to gel and show something. They haven't (at least a number of them haven't), so it's time to cut bait. What I like about GMTM is he doesn't fall in love with his own players, which many many GMs are guilty of.
I can certainly think of a former Sabres GM who did so until everything went up in flames.
Edit: It wasn't the only reason, nor was he solely responsible, mind...

At some point, the "hittee" needs to be held accountable for putting himself in a vulnerable position. Tiffoli knew Polak was coming, as soon as they approached the boards Tiffoli came to a dead stop and turned his back. You can't hold the hitter responsible when the other player purposely turns his back. It almost looked like Polak was trying to avoid him because he checked up and hit him while he was bent over. If he really wanted to board Tiffoli, he would have stood up and labeled him.
That better not get a review from the league.
Horseshit. Polak, regardless of when Tofolli tuned up the boards, had ample time to decide whether he'd plant his shoulder between the numbers on the back and chose wrongly. Chickenshit play. He'll be luck not to miss a few games.
-
Weber on a third pair isn't (sigh, I suppose if we must) a deal breaker. Cheaper than Gorges, Money best spent up front. For anybody who can score.... Even some of the time.
-
And now, because evidently I never tire of arguing about things, I'm arguing with Laffs fans on Twitter (it started with me tweeting at Damian Cox because he's an infuriating simpleton) about whether someone wearing a Laffs jersey should be penalized for dropping his shoulder between the numbers on an opponent's back on the boards. Thank 8 lb. 6 oz. baby Jesus for beer and my four day work week... Because this could go all night.....
-
Roman Polak just tried to kill Tyler Toffoli. Watching the Leafs feed. Jack Edwards would be proud of the whitewashing job.
Polak quite rightly tossed out.
Now a ref down after a shot to the head. This game is bizarre.
-
Avatar, as in the movie? The worst movie ever made, that movie?
Indeed, Space Dances with Wolves.
-
You want to know how absolutely moronic the NHL scheduling was this year? Montreal played thier first home game since December 17th last night. That's 8 consecutive road games.
There's been some sort of Avatar-related Cirque du Soleil thing going on at the Bell Centre for like three weeks. I'm going to assume that was booked first.
-
We had a very legitimate chance at landing him.
The Sabres thought so too. Didn't end well.
-
Say again. Over. Sorry, I'm missing the point.
He was never, ever, ever going to come to Buffalo. Flirted a bit to squeeze every last dime out of the Leafs, that was the extent of his interest.
-
Maybe they should have an Exorcism Night at the FNC.
As I recall that was tried when Muckler traded for Satan at the deadline in '97. The same season the scoreboard crashed to center ice because, obviously, evil spirits. Didn't quite work then; given the organization's recent track record at moving forward, they'll let loose a few new and more malevolent demons because why not?

What happened?
LBI; happened vs. Detroit. Finished the game anyway.

I've always preferred Export. Can't get it down here...
