  1. I had a feeling when the Avs made it 4-2 before the second ended that it wouldn't be easy.

     

    I'm VERY surprised that the Swordsmen were able to pull it off once it was tied in the third. Another nice road win for the boys. These are the games we'll rely on for playoff positioning.

  2. Congrats on another solid performance. Two more road points against a team they are "supposed" to beat.

     

    Big week to finish off. In Montreal against a team that is looking for some payback against us AND coming off being shut out in Ottawa tonight. Then a REALLY big game against the Sharks Friday as I'll be in HSBC for the game.

  3. these fsn pittsburgh guys suck... we're all very lucky to have had rick jennerette and ted darling as our announcers for the past 35 years.

    Could they please use the word "puck". I think they'll manage to broadcast an entire game saying only "biscuit" instead of "puck". I also don't know if it is because the crowd is quiet or it is microphone placement, but I seem to be hearing the puck hit sticks on virtually every pass and alot of skate blades along the ice.

  4. Mike Grier's clear at the end may very well be the play of the game.

    I agree - he might deserve a star for that play alone!

     

    A little too exciting at the end - wow was that pressure by the Caps. All in all I got everything I wanted when I came home to watch. A Sabres win, the Sabres feed on Center Ice and a goal "top shelf, where momma hides the cookies!"

     

    Any win on the road is a good win.

  5. great first period... pomeville (sp?) scored on the powerplay on a quick pass that could only be seen in HD (it was very fast). not a lot of work on biron.. defense has kept the puck to the outside and working out of the zone. this buffalo team is playing much better than t he other one.

    Agreed - a very enjoyable 20 minutes to watch. I'd like 40 more just like it this afternoon.

  6. GOAL!!!!!

     

    Nicely done by Briere. The Sabres really owned the 3d period tonight. Good effort....good win.

    I was particularly impressed with their ability to kill the penalty with 6 minutes left and a 3-1 lead. A Jersey goal there could have been a game changer. This was what this team needs to do - a solid effort leading to a win.

  7. What a horrible looking PP that was. :(

     

     

    Come on Sabres!!

    I just got home from work and turned the game on with 3 minutes left in the first. I was hoping that we wouldn't start the second on the power play but that last minute was horrible!

  8. Hello good old November/December slide, goodbye playoffs.

    I'm afraid you're right. This game was a character test after the Sens game. Like it or not our Swordsmen have the character to show up and play a very good, entertaining 35-40 minutes before relaxing and losing.

  9. Big night tonight - the teams reaction and play in response to Wednesdays drubbing by the Sens will tell us if they were embarressed. Let's hope so and they do something about it. They need a solid game and divisional win tonight if they are going to do anything other than play golf next spring!

  10. It's only one game but our Swordsmen played well. They hustled, looked quick, and peppered the Isles net all night. Initial thought is that the rules to open the game up look like they may work. We'll see if the refs make the calls all season they did tonight. On the negative side - we had two, two man advantages and were unable to score. I believe we were 1/10 on the power play. That will cost you some games.
