If i'm not mistaken, didn't Weber and Lucic go at it last year? Weber didn't win but he didn't get beat up either. Also Adam Mair bloodied Lucics nose a couple years back in a fight. I expect someone or more than one to challenge Lucic on the 23rd. I would be shocked if it didn't happen. The Sabres supposedly had a team meeting at the Bell Ctr yesterday morning about team toughness. I guess we will see if they are for real or not.
I guess the next question is, what is the answer?
The Sabres have been destroyed in publications. There is going to be a lot of pressure to answer the bell in their next Bruins matchup from fans, media, and hopefully themselves.
Ouch!!! That speaks volumns right there!
Not that he was a very good fighter, but tonight is exactly why Peters was on the team. He was a big dude, and would throw with anybody in the league. The Sabres don't have a Peters anymore.
Good teams usually have good goaltending and good goaltending is only giving up 2 or less goals per game.
That said, yes the sabres need to score more and yes the sabres goaltending needs to be better.
Really? then I guess it was not too much to ask of Thomas to make the save on Roy.
I guess you have got to ask yourself, why are some saves too difficult for Miller but not too difficult for other goalies? Hmm.... makes you wonder.
