SABRES 0311

Yeah I haven’t watched the last two. Not protesting or anything. In fact I intended to watch them but it just didn’t happen.

I hope not if for no reason other than a decade of what if threads (Drury/Briere). ? Seriously though I think that’s one team he would say no to. The guy waived his no move to go to Buffalo to get out of there. Might as well have put Vaseline on his pimp hand and then smacked their owner in the face.

Not ROR’s fault the Sabres suck.

We got two second overall picks and a first. I doubt another teenager (who is not hyped up) is going to put us in the playoffs.

This made me think of why I am still watching games. Then answer is it is entertainment. Even if the product sucks it is still hockey and you never know what will happen. With that, I do not support tanking the rest of the year. I want the team who gave Tampa fits to play every game. The fans bought in to tanking a few years ago and we believed their would be a light at the end of the tunnel. If we are forced to endure not just bad hockey but indignity again then it’s a shame. Thats what tanking is for anyone who forgot. Losing on purpose makes you one thing, a loser. If it didn’t work a couple years ago why should we believe it will now? Trust is a two way street. It’s an embarrassment to hear Sabres fans at home cheer a loss or opposition goal. Anyone who falls for the “ends justify the means” thinking again is a sucker. Sorry but I’m just as pissed about the state of affairs as anyone else.

You would have to watch both games at the same time.

I think this bleeds into fire Phil or not. If we get a new coach that wants to go a different way then it’s a new system for the players to learn. GM has a choice to make. Keep Phil and let him keep trying to teach that system. Fire Phil but hire a coach who who can pick up where he left off but with a different approach. Or new coach new system. If GM feels Phil has lost the room then it narrows it down a bit.

Dynamite drop in. Same here.

I’d like all that too but the last couple of years has shown the opposite.

Not too many games left so they will just play it out as is. Maybe some changes will come in the summer.

Almost there.

No I saw it. And forgot it.

How cool would it be to see Wolverine fight The Hulk? The MCU is so big with so many alternate story lines. Just not a fan of Gambit’s absence so far.

Funny thing is after a long summer of no hockey people will be looking forward to it. If attendance gets too low they can always bring in some former player or coach that appeals to nostalgia. People will eat that garbage all day as with Nolan, Housley, Lafontaine. All management has to do is give the illusion of hope and when that well dries up you just switch the faces, wash, rinse, repeat. New guys get some YouTube montage of their hiring and promises with some epic background music and by end of winter we are talking about next year’s hopes and dreams.

I don’t get how they had some good/close games against Tampa earlier in the season and now the wheels have fallen off.

I’m not a scientist so I have input other than if you are planning a trip it might be worth some investigating. If it happens in the immediate near future I’ll update as much as possible.

You got me. I’ll think twice next time. ?

Any links to the post game interviews?

They look defeated in every way. Faces on the bench tell it all.

Skinner looked like he was talkin trash to the Avs bench while the assistant coach was drawing up a plan. Lol.

I don’t think I’ve heard Girgensons name at all this game.

I wonder what the locker room interactions are like after a game like this.

I don’t get out enough

I think this game is an experience in how they need to manage emotions and remember it’s the score that matters. I like that they’re not backing down but they are not creating anything. Only 20 minutes to get much needed points. Must win period. Must have balance Daniel Son.

Ok boys we got some good hits in but focus on the score now.
