Like I said earlier. Nice win. Its a good feeling going to bed not lamenting a loss. Good feelings till Shittsburgh on Sunday and we'll have to find a way to beat them and my weekend is complete.

I thought I answered the question. Look at Buffaloes record compared to the Bruins. He gets a pass.

Great 3rd period. Nice win. Myers looked good. Stafford gets the monkey off his back. Lets hope Sekera isn't gone too long.

Nice. Add a little grit and its amazing what you can accomplish.

Oscars having his best game of the year.

just the excuse these guys need to collapse

Thornton led with his knee and hit Sekera in the knee or just above the knee.

thats his knee

Hoffmeister !

Oscar !

There's really no other explanation for why they're playing like they are except bad coaching. Either way it comes back to Lindy.

I agree on Weber. It makes little to no sense. Has he got a nagging injury ?

With Bostons record Julien is afforded a pass. If Lindy had this team playing like the bruins no one would call for his job.

as always go sabres rah rah ra h

Well said. I'm right there with you but I wouldn't call what I'm doing abandoning the team. I watch every game I can no matter how painful because occasionally there's a nugget in all the shite that sparkles and thats what holds me. I'll continue to voice my displeasure at how the franchise is being run. I'll continue to call for Regiers job when its obvious he isn't the right guy for the job. Head scout sure, G.M. not so much. And I have had enough of Ruffs way of doing things. I watch other teams with less talent ( according to Regiers pay scale ) that play a far more exciting style. Maybe they're just managed better ? I don't know. If so thats on Regier. Maybe they're just coached better ? I don't know. If so then thats on Ruff. But on paper we are one of the highest paid teams in the league and we sit dead last in the eastern conference. Thats just not good enough and someone should be held accountable. But they won't be. Lets be honest here. This is the Buffalo Sabres where no one is held to a high standard because no one ever loses their job for a lack of results. No accountability and it runs right through the players veins. Its all many of them have ever known. Our core grew up in this disfunction. It is their essence. Which all comes back to Darcy.

Ugh ! Sure, kick me when I'm down. I never in my wildest nightmares expected this scenario. Maybe that lockout wasn't that bad after all.

Sounds about right. Hard to measure intent there. Unfortunate accident is how it originally looked to me but considering the offender involved one has to wonder ?

Just saw the play. As others have said it was reckless. I'm still not sure it was intentional. How do we get inside the head of Matt Cooke ? Do we even want to ? Its hard on a play like this to tell if he knew where the foot of the Ottawa player even was. Was he looking in that direction or was he just trying to regain his footing to give himself leverage against his opponent ? We may never know because obviously even if it was intentional we know he will deny that when he talks to Shanahan.

That was Paddy O'Lantern

Time to wake up people. While Darcy is waiting for the trade market to set itself BOSTON will do whats necessary to acquire O'Reilly. If not Boston then Philly. These are teams with proactive G.M.s that go for it as compared to Darcys reactive style of management. We can all dream a little dream but reality will slap us all in the face when its announced that he's going elsewhere.imo.

All I know is the laughs, yes thats right, the laughs are a better team than the Sabres. :sick: Its humbling and shocking all rolled into one sickening feeling. They will most likely make the playoffs and at the rate this team has been playing we don't have a hope in hell. Yet they shittcanned Burke ( a stanley cup winner ) and we signed Regier to a 5 year extension. Look at the difference Carlyle ( a stanley cup winner ) has made in Toronto and tell me a coaching change won't make a lick of difference. I watch the Leafs ( I'll call them leafs because they're better than us ) and I see a team that competes every night. I'm not sure they take periods off never mind an entire game. Let it sink in. The leafs might make the playoffs for the first time in who knows how long and it appears we will be on the outside looking in. Again. Unless something changes.

I agree. Fitting avatar. What I take away from that photo is that some of these players are in need of change as bad as the fans. Not change for changes sake. Thats Darcys modus operandi. For improvement.

Fall on my sword. For the sake of Sabres fans everywhere.

If the Sabres make a move to change the coach without changing the G.M. it would be a mistake. A change in philosophy includes the architect of this mess as well and Regier has already intimated that he and Ruff are connected at the hip anyways so they would both have to go.
