Was at the game as well and I think the crowd is brutal. I even turned to my buddy with 5 minutes to go and said ..what the hell, we have the lead with this amount of time against a tier 1 opponent and it's like they are losing. Even the playoff round last year was nothing like it used to be. I think it is the Sabres style of play more than it is the wins and losses. Whatever it is, I am trying to do my part to fix it (however small that may be). Hopefully one day, the Bills and Sabres games will have the home field/ice advantage again because they certainly don't have it now....That aside, great game last night as I had a blast!

Sorry but that is nothing BUT disturbing.......

I would like to witness my first home victory in person - I would love to see Connolly benched for this one..

Great effort again especially from down 3-0. If only the craptastic 2nd line could contribute a fragment of scoring, these guys would be on a tear. Good to see the effort as the season progresses.

If they can crawl back in this one (even in a losing effort), that would be great. Since I am going on Friday, that's the one I really want......

There is no way you can bench him but you can't deny he has been giving goals up left and right. Do you not agree?

Wow, Myers responsible for another goal...what is that 4 games in a row? I don't care if they won those games, he is becoming a huge liability

nice wind up Connolly you clown. I think Ruff is almost at his wits end with 19......

Not sure which way to go on this one. On Monday I predicted the win against Vancouver and then tonight would be the laying of the egg. I'll drop the laying of the egg but still think a loss - 5-3 Caps with empty netter

This really needs to happen. I know Lindy is letting Myers play through his slump but that should not be the case with the living blow up doll - he needs to be demoted today

Thoughts: 1) Myers saved his hide with that goal 2) Vanek is back with a vengeance - first time since that injury a couple years ago - STAY HEALTHY PLEASE 3) This team could really make it easier on themselves if they had any sort of a power play 4) good to see Connolly as a healthy scratch :unsure:

Wow, have not seen Vancouver yet this year....do they ever miss a pass?

I think they win tonight and lay a HUGE egg in Washington on Wednesday....

I expect a win tonight. No way Vancouver comes in here after being on a tear and carries the momentum. Perfect timing to catch them in a lull (especially for a Monday) 4-2 Buffalo

SOLID! What a GREAT game by the defense. If they can play like that, it's a brand new team.

Maybe I'm wrong but I don't think the problem is with the forwards on this team The Defense Sucks Great one point for OT though - let's get two

I have now gotten to the point that Connolly is starting to make me physically sick every time I see him.. CUT HIM ALREADY

I meant that in the most sincere way! Nice to see Pommers, Vanek, Roy and Myers all show up at the big times tonight (even though Vanek was a bit shaky) Thank goodness Connolly did not get a chance in the shootout Loved the passing tonight and I think these last two wins carry over big time until Miller is back....

Connolly really needs to go away forever and ever and ever and ever

No need for Enron to try and make a glorious street hockey save, just keep it out of the net idiot

With the schedule they have coming up after these 2 in NY, this really is a must win game and I think the first true must win of the season.....

Great optimism De Luca, love it. I brought my 4 year old daughter down with a minute to go since she is going to her first game soon and I said "the boys in blue are going to win this in the last minute". Guess who has a new bedtime of 10:00 for now on!

I feel like we just won a playoff game - THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

There is always a breaking point game where I no longer become angry after the loss. If they blow this one, it will be MY confirmation that the season will be lost as they are proving they can't even beat mediocre teams. This makes it virtually impossible to get back into the top 8.

I think there should be an on going thread on the most prevalent excuse for each game - I'll start it tonight with "hey they have lost 4 in a row and were the more desperate team, they just wanted it more." I wish Buffalo knew how many they have lost......
