that wasn't very smart Errorhoff.

Flynn shows great patience.

Guys are going to start asking out of this mess. Everyones standing around watching the caps play.

Mid meltdown

Foligno looked like a deer in the headlights in the slot there. Thats part of the problem. Too many guys standing around without a check.

I think they said the Caps are 3rd in the league on the pp

RRs been indoctrinated into the race for the bottom and the #1 pick by Sabres brass. ;)

Nice shot.

Cody lost the faceoff clean and Ovi really didn't hesitate. Got control and fired. Maybe he caught Miller sleeping ? It was a good shot. People have postulated that faceoffs don't matter. That one did.

I'm really anticipating our patented 2nd period meltdown.

Shots on goal are even at 4. Apparently.

Almost as dumb as scratching Scott against Ottawa. Neil made our guys look and behave like bitchez on more than one occasion. With Scott in the lineup he's the bitch. As always. GO SABRES !

Nice thread. True it could be worse but it could also be much better. And that is the crux of the problem and all that many complain about including myself. The fact that we are only ever considered average at best. Mediocre. so-so. Always the bridesmaid. Never the bride. This isn't only perception. You can take it to the bank. Its what we are. Its normal. And it has become a part of the belief system. Its what we expect and what others expect of us. And the fact that its accepted as good enough by management and its become ingrained in our souls as fans. The players accept it. Why wouldn't they ? For many of them its all they've ever known. Drafted by the Sabres and basically raised in disfunction. People here on this board accept it. They are happy with their lot in the hockey universe. Willing to accept the status quo and afraid of change. We hear it here all the time. But who would we replace him with ? Who else is out there ? Something has to change. I and many others have talked of changing the very culture of the club but T.P. in all his wisdom extended the very man who built this team. I don't have all the answers but I certainly know where to start. imo.

Noisy wheel gets the grease. This will have to become an outright din for Pegula and black to wake up. If Sawyer considers Darcy a genius after all he's done to destroy this team its going to take a whole lot of noise to change those perceptions. I say make some noise people. Let these clowns in management and ownership know that they're sadly mistaken when it comes to Regier.

I missed the game due to an unusual set of circumstances. Locked the keys in the trunk of the car. Wife had to catch the bus to come across town with the spare set. Frustrating much like watching the Sabres so I guess everything evens out. Enjoyed reading the GDT though. Thanks.

Thanks for that. Great lyrics that warm a lads heart. I have a wee bit of the irish in me on me mothers side which is probably cancelled out by the stuff from me fathers so not sure I can call myself irish if at all but on St. Paddys day I'll be Irish through and through as I'm sure many of us will. Cheers to all. ;) Whats the difference between an Irish wedding and an Irish funeral ? One less drunk. ;)

Scott- Matt Kassian ? This seems to be more the match-up then Scott-Neil. As always, GO SABRES !

As asss backwards as this move was I think its the right move for Griggy, He'll get mass icetime and has a chance to play for the cup. I still think Regiers the polar opposite of a genius though. Just sayin... :P . Fire his butt.

I agree. Nashville got exactly what they wanted.

I don't expect it to happen in this case but teams have swung trades involving more than 2 teams. A three team trade isn't entirely out of the question.

I wouldn't discount anything when the team sucks this bad.

If you want long term hire Lindy Ruff ;)

Hows the last 6 years felt. Going with youth can't be any worse than the last 6 years as far as regular season or playoff success.

We're used to it. That debate has nothing to do with Enroth having 2 good games. Its a story on its own.

Does Perry have a history of this stuff ? Repeat offender ? Shanny will explain this away somehow. Tool.
