Horrible giveaway by Weber spoils an otherwise very good road game by Sabres. At least they pick up a point...
-
:oops: Nice to see the Sabres make me look like an idiot. Could this weekend be the beginning of a long march to the playoffs? We are currently 6 points behind the 6th-8th place teams. It's doable.
Hopefully the Bills follow up with a rare double!

we really suck now

1. Yes, but who cares, he popped his 2010 cherry and now the goals will come.
2. Awfully close to a certain franchise in British Columbia. Not dead on, but really close. (3 playoff games, GAMES, in 11 seasons. And it was easier to make it in, then.) They have and have had no attendance problems. The problem with the Thrashers is that the team is in Atlanta. Not everything is for every place.
3. Yep.
atlanta is just a crappy sports town unless the sport is college football. How many times did the Braves make the playoffs and have their stands unfilled also?

I can't get Christmas music out of my head. Ever since Valentine's Day. I love Little Drummer Boy.
###### rum ###### ###### pum
David Bowie's version of that song, along with George Michael's ultra-gay rendition of "Last Christmas I gave you my heart", take the top 2 on my list of "Gay Christmas songs"
I mean the thought of George Michael's whispering "Merry Christmas" in another man's ear is enough to make me forcefully vomit...

I come from the land down under...
where woman blow and men plunder
wonder what that's in reference to?!? <_<

Man that was quite a ride!
That reminded me a little of what we all loved earlier in the year---no matter how, just find a way to win it...that PK in OT was unbelievable---players throwing themselves all over the place trying to block shots and get the puck out---that was a horrible play by Spacek to give them the PP, but that's another story...
Looks like the key to them finding a way to win is just giving effort--they were all over Vancouver in the 3rd period...
Overall nice game, they definitely could have won by a lot more with all the chances they had...
-
How the f**k was that a goal by Chicago?? The Sabres player had his stick directly behind the goalline and the puck was nowhere to be seen in the net---it obviously was under Miller and Miller was not in the net...
The NHL looks at obvious goals for 5 minutes and they take 10 seconds on that one?? What the heck is that about?
-
Buffalo is just dominating this game---Chicago hasn't had but 1 or 2 good chances...
-
Man, I loved when Vanek scored tonite and he literally leapt into Afinigenov's arms...that says EVERYTHING about why this team is so good...
-
Well they certainly were not at their best tonight but ... what does it say when they just beat the three hottest teams in the East, by three goals each, without ever playing a complete game, and never trailed in any of them?
For one thing it says that Miller is playing really well ... but is it any coincidence they are now 13-0-1 with Tallinder in the lineup?
Again, they have not been perfect, but you can't argue with the results.
I think it says that the only people that can beat the Sabres are on the same team. When they play like they think they can show up and win, like the opponent is just going to bow down before their greatness, then they get into trouble. If they come out and play like they need to, I can't honestly see a team that will beat them...and that includes Anaheim
-
Sabres impressed with their own talents too much again tonite---must have got an inflated opinion of themselves after the game in Nashville....
This team has got to stop thinking they can just show up and win the game and actually play hard every night...
-
I honestly can't see how they could lose to these guys---I mean even when the Blues work hard they are just dreadful...
this is what a bad team looks like...
-
glad to see the 2 for 8 on the PP.
Yeah, even if they were basically meaningless goals, it was still good to see them get some scoring chances...
I thought Max had 2 sure goals on one of the earlier PP's, and he missed a wide open net once and then rang it off the post the second time off a great feed by Drury...
-
Now this is Sabres Hockey----and as good as Nashville is, they are making a huge mistake trying to skate with Buffalo----I don't care who it is, when Buffalo skates and the other team skates, this is what usually happens...
-
3-1 loss... best thing to happen tonight was the massive amounts of boos. merry f-ing christmas sabres. time to remind yourself that you have to play an entire game in both ends of the ice. The sky is NOT falling, but this is a team that must rediscover itself. perhaps t hey can put together a defensive masterpiece against the habs on tuesday. till then its 3 days of PP practice.
Whats scary is that the team will STILL win 7 out of 10 games playing this way...
-
Man, we love doing things the hard way I guess....
At the end of the night, a win is a win...
-
WTF did Max get 2nd star for? :unsure:
Well, he did make few nice rushes into the zone, including the one that led directly to Novotny's goal. However, I can't help but thinking that it might have been some tongue in cheek from the Montreal media...
Afinigenov had an absolutely horrible giveaway in the zone when he was on the boards halfway up our zone and passed into the middle of the ice, directly to a Montreal player who ended up with a 2 on 0 on Miller, and then Afinigenov had to take him down with a hook to basically save a goal, which Montreal quickly turned into a goal after Ryder pounced on a loose rebound. It was good to see that Afinigenov was giving himself a verbal tongue lashing as he skated out of the box towards the Buffalo bench after the goal...
Perhaps they thought Max figured prominently in the first 2 goals of the game----
One for Buffalo and then one for Montreal....
hahahaah

Well, honestly the Lightning are one team that I absolutely have no worries about regardless of what is going on in the game, because they are a team that simply does not like working. No matter how hard Buffalo works, Tampa Bay never seems to figure out that is what keeps getting them beat against us over and over again. Against Tampa Bay I feel completely confident that we are going to win, and never feel nervoud if they score to make things close...not sure why, other than the aforementioned poor work ethic that seems to really show up when Buffalo gets a lead in the games...
-
*I know it is salary cap related, but why did we even take a chance of not having an extra defenseman with us? Seems awfully risky to me to keep extra forwards up and hope that none of our 6 "D' get hurt, especially given how our injuries tend to come in bunches....what a nightmare it would have been had we lost one of our 5 D-men tonight...
I thought they said before the game that Spacek just wasn't able to get his skate on comfortably tonight to play. They made it seem like Spacek was expecting to play all the way up until warmups, but couldnt' go tonite. If so, it would have been impossible for them to call up someone with so little time before the game. Also, if Spacek is only expected to miss the one game, perhaps they didn't feel like it was worth calling Funk back up, especially since he usually only plays 2-3 minutes per night anyways, and many times not even a full minute....
-
Pominville with the empty netter.
Miller was UNREAL for the last 5 minutes. Big-game goalie material all the way!
Add to that another empty netter.
This time from Paille.
Hehe, that will pad the shorthanded goal stats for us---2 in less than a minute :P
Miller was absolutely huge in this game, making big save after big save in the later parts of the 3rd period...
-
Man, I thought the Hurricanes game was awesome, but this was even more unbelievable---it looked like they were down and out after taking a parade to the penalty box late in the 3rd period and then the Canadiens made it 4-2...after Briere scored to make it 4-3, I thought here they go, and sure enough, Afinegenov tied it up with under 15 seconds left, then they win in OT...
Looks like we can expect more of the same from last year!!
-
Unfortunately I didn't get to watch the game today, I had to listen on the radio, and it sounded like a really good, close game with a lot of chances both ways...
Typically, the Sabres found a way to win, which is good to see that part of their game carryover from last season...
18 penalties really seemed like alot, and it seemed every little infraction was being called...was it really this way, or did it just seem like it?
Either way, I'll take it, and we can look forward to the home opener now...

Lol, their goal is to finish last for at least this year and possibly next year...why would they want a coach that is going to win games?
