  1. i am sure many of you guys are feeling the same - and that is I can't wait until 7pm! It has a been a long time since I felt this way about a hockey game. I have always been Sabres first and Bills second, but there is jsut something about the build-up to the Sunday football games; even when the Bills have struggled in recent years. But, for the first time in a while, I almost feel like tonight is that "Sunday football" feeling!

     

    couldnt have said that better myself. This is such an amazing time of the year and finally our team is not only in the playoff hunt, but we have the chance to be on top of the division and maybe even the league. There should be a playoff-like atmosphere in Ottawa tonight.

     

    IMO, goaltending wins this game....we know both these teams can score, but who can make the most important saves? I give the edge to the Sabres in that department...Ottawa is forced to start Emery or Morrisson, and neither one of them is playing particually well lately. Hopefully Miller puts in another solid performance like the one he had against the Maple Laughs the other night....GO SABRES

  2. The guys playing the point get caught multiple times every game when on the PP....I have seen Teppo get caught about 3 times tonight alone....props to Kotalik on the last one though because he hustled to get back and break up a play that looked like it was going to turn into a goal....btw what a shift late in the period by Grier-Hecht-Gaustad...not a usual line but they were effective...all of them are so strong on the puck, they cycled it so well down low that it made the Bruins look like they were spectators instead of players.

  3. When Briere went down, a lot of people were like it's not that big of a deal, we have a lot of good forwards...and it is true we have alot of good ones, but I think Briere is our most talented, and I think he has been since he got here. That's just my opinion, but look at the lift this guy has given us since he came back....5 points in the last 2 games, add in tonight and its 7 in the last 3.....he is one of the most underrated players in the league

  4. A win tonite puts us just 2 points behind Ottawa for first in the division. My prediction is that the Sabres will come out fired up because they know for sure now that they're all here for the stretch run and no one who actually plays got shipped out. Although I am curious to see the line of Drury-Kotalik-2nd round pick, what a dangerous trio

  5. Anyone know who the starting goalie is tonight? Do you think Marty deserves another start? Cuz I sure as hell do, especially if we are planning on keeping him and not trading him.

     

    The Bruins are frustrated over losing that last one to us. After the game Raycroft said its frustrating when "we play as good as they do and it's not enough to win." I think Thomas gets the start in goal for the B's tonight. They know there are trades coming too, which might weigh on their players' minds. I say 4-2 Buffalo

  6. Beautiful goal by Roy, great set up by Max.

    Mats Sundin is looking like a true leader out there...taking 2 dumb penalties on face offs to kill PP's.

     

     

    It's about time the refs start calling Sundin for some of his b.s. If you remember the last time we played the leafs, he was getting away with murder out there. He actually punched one of our players (Grier maybe?) behind the play and didnt even get called. Go Sabres

  7. Do you guys all have DirecTV? I have Comcast and Center Ice and I have the game...I would keep checking back. There were a few games earlier this year where the broadcast didn't kick in until like 10 or 15 minutes into the game.

     

    Update for those of you having technical difficulties:

     

    1-0 Sabres, Roy on the PP. Toronto looks awful.

     

     

    The broadcast just kicked on finally!

     

    So were there any good hits in the first period?? How is the offense looking?

  8. LA LA LALALA LA LALA FONTAINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ya, I wanted those two morons playing poker put against a wall and shot!

     

    Hahaha yea I wanted to rip those gold chains off the one guy and strangle him. Well it SOUNDED cool since I had to listen to it on NHL.com game radio :angry:

  9. Why the hell is the pregame blacked out on MSG, along with the Lafontaine ceremonY????? On the "TV Guide Channel" it says its supposed to be on.....I am absolutely livid, this is bullsh*t. Right now the taped repeat "PokerStars II" is on my TV and not the damn ceremony. I HATE MSG, we need to get a new TV deal, because the Sabres are last in line all the time when it comes to that channel.

  10. I agree, for some reason I like the white jerseys to be the home ones. Maybe it's because I hate the Sabres black jerseys.

     

    By the way for anyone going to the game tonight, if you are sitting in section 118 or 117 on the end you are in luck because I sat in 118 for Danny Gare night and all of the Sabres alumni came right down the aisle I was sitting on and I got to shake hands and talk with many of them. It was quite an experience

  11. The matchup against Ottawa Saturday night is shaping up to be a great one. We can skate with those guys, they don't have the depth that we have, and this Sabres team is much different than the one that got beaten so badly earlier in the year by the Sens...time to prove to the rest of the NHL that we are the real deal, because this team never gets the credit it deserves

  12. so, esche, the olympian, is getting beaten by miller, looked over by the USOC. Not to mention, esche will be representing the USA with a confederate flag blocker. Stay classy robert!

    The US GM Don Waddell is a complete tool who got his job just because he drafted Kovalchuk and Heatley, which were two obvious picks that a monkey could have made. He has no eye for talent, if you want proof look at his team which is yet to make the playoffs ever. Miller is 100 times better than Esche, Grahame, and DiPietro.
