Desperately trying to find a reasonable deal for fridays game. If you have one, please e-mail me, HERE Thanks.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!! SCOREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!!!! I LOVE THIS TEAM.

For those that were worried about our performance tonight - we played a desperate, desperate team. We didn't even play our A game and still won. We dominated the first period but they pressured us big time the 2nd and 3rd period. Be happy folks. We did this without Gaustad, Brierre, and Connally. I know we've won without Brierre but still, it's just an example of how much depth this team has. Imagine what we can do when all 3 return. Gaustad was missed tonight. I'm happy we won this game. Beating Montreal in their own building is impressive.

Ruff may ride Miller until he loses. I believe this was his 6th straight?

Miller's starting tonight. That changes my thoughts on the game. I thought this was a dangerous game for the Sabres because of that big win against the Sens on Saturday and the possibility of Biron being cold if he started. They've had enough time to forget about it, I hope and will punish the Habs tonight.

Heard from a few friends that went to the game that it was absolutely crazy during the shootout. Loved the victory, even if it was a shootout. Going into it I totally thought they'd have the advantage in the shootout because of all the goal scorer's they got. Miller negated that. Great goal by Vanek!

Also - I imagine this game is sold out because of the long stretch of away games (and because it's philly), can anyone confirm that? If that's the case, haven't we sold out quite a few in a row?

Tonight is going to be fun. We're on a hell of a roll considering we're missing some studs which makes this team even more impressive than I thought. Philly is a team I like to see us beat up on. I hope we give the home crowd a treat and just pound them 4-1. I am cautiously optimistic though. After long road stands we always come back and play lousy. Or maybe I'm remembering that San Jose game too quickly.

Jagr's 30th. We have an opportunity to get that one back.. Let's go powerplay

thanks. that game won't be much easier!

i don't even think goaltending was an issue tonight. miller came up big early. the canucks opportunities were just too good and they capitalized. i hate to use this excuse but if we had 2 of our top guys in there (brierre and dumont) tonight could've been different. when we play these good teams, our top dogs being out catches up. would the canucks have as much success without naslund and bertuzzi? maybe not a fair comparison. that being said, this game was winnable early. we just got sloppy on defense in the 2nd period.

Ahh Well. Who's next and when?

me too. this is our last push...

damn.

we're definitely working harder than they are at the moment. looks like we want this one
