Me too.
It's always darkest before the dawn.
I can't even count how many years I've been saying that about the Bills. With that being said, I have much more faith in the Sabres moving forward than the Bills

Just stay off the PK boys...

WHAT A PLAY

Twas a joke.
Eh, I felt kind of bad after someone seemingly gave me credit for the write-up. Just figured I should address it

Not be a debbie downer but at least a link is needed. (Link)
Nah, plagiarism is all the rage these days.
I put (ESPN) in front of the story. Didn't claim it to be my work, although a link would have been more effective than simply writing the name of the source I found it on. Oh well.

(ESPN) BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The New York Rangers and Buffalo Sabres are both looking to get back on track following particularly disappointing outings on Tuesday night.On Thursday, the teams will meet at 7:30 p.m. in Buffalo in a nationally televised game.The Sabres (20-20-9) went into the All-Star break in the midst of one of their best stretches of the season. Following three straight overtime wins and a hard-luck 4-3 loss to the Dallas Stars -- in which the Sabres saw two potential third-period goals disallowed in controversial fashion -- the Sabres were thinking they were well on their way toward a late-season playoff push.Buffalo's first game out of the All-Star break, however, carried none of that momentum forward. The Sabres fell to Montreal 5-2 in a defeat that saw the Canadiens jump out to a 5-0 lead before surrendering two goals late in the third period to avoid the shutout. Max Pacioretty had a hat trick for Montreal."It's one game," Sabres center Jack Eichel said, according to the team's website. "It's a tough one but what are you going to do about it now? We ... play another game on Thursday so I think we put it behind us. We obviously know we didn't play well. I think it'll be important for us to go back to the drawing board, forget about this one, put it behind us. We know the way we have to play as a team to be successful."Dmitry Kulikov and Brian Gionta scored for Buffalo."It wasn't as if it was 19 chances to zero," Sabres head coach Dan Bylsma said via the team's website. "We had plenty of opportunities, but we played into their speed game. They played a fast game, we handed them the puck and they capitalized on a lot of the chances they had."The Rangers (31-18-1), meanwhile, can draw some inspiration from their attempted comeback against Columbus on Tuesday night. Like the Sabres, however, they fell into big hole that was ultimately too much to overcome.New York was facing a 6-0 deficit after surrendering four goals in the second period but did score four goals in the third in the 6-4 loss."We have to understand it's such a big learning moment for us," Rangers center Derek Stepan told the team's website. "Teams are just too good to take a 10-minute stretch like that. You're going to get killed every time. We've got to stop doing that ... They made us pay in that 10 minutes."Stepan is tied for the team lead in points with 38 (12 goals, 26 assists) alongside Mats Zuccarello (9 goals, 29 assists).Thursday will be the third and final game between the two teams this season. Despite the difference in the standings, the Sabres won each of the previous two meetings. Buffalo picked up a 4-3 home win against New York on Dec. 1 and a 4-1 road win to open up the new year on Jan. 3.

Jack will get #10 tonight as well :P
Good call!

Thru 2, Sabres playing smart, aggressive and their passing is exceptionally good. Fun game thus far.
I hate missing entertaining games. Ugh

Stuck at work today even though my job involves doing business with financial institutions. It's about to be a slowww day. At least I can keep an eye on the game thread for updates to the game

Way more than just one.
He hired our horrible coach and somehow made our defense worse than it was during the Tank years when we were *trying* to lose. He traded away assets as fast as he could and we basically have nothing to show for it other than some bad contracts that are years away from expiring.
But, yeah, he's a great GM! ZFG!!!
Currently listening to What You Don't See pretending like this game didn't really happen
-
Our defensemen, combined, are on pace to finish with fewer goals than Risto scored last year. And two of them so far are 3v3 OT goals.
I didn't even realize this. Yeesh.
-
This team has no hockey IQ and a fkn useless coach. Why is Nilsson still playing?
Good question... The game is over, might as well throw Ullmark in for the experience
-
These defenders look absolutely clueless
-
Sounds like I picked a good one to skip and watch Rocky 2 with the kids. You just knew after last night they wouldn't show up
I definitely had my doubts, especially since it was a back-to-back. But it's a Friday night and nothing pairs better with beer than sports
-
. I think that's game
-
You seem despondent
-
*Deslusional
Come on guys, these puns are getting DesPerate
You're all Destracting me from the intermission report!
-
Bogosian's had a, what do you call, good game?
A good 2 periods? There's still another period to play you know... All kidding aside, he's definitely been solid
-
Finally! First SHG of the season!
-
Eichel might have a decent linemate before he's thirty. Maybe.
Probably premature but I'm extremely excited about the idea of Nylander and Eichel on the same line
-
Ok I'm pissed now. Is anyone moving their feet? I know back-to-backs are usually hard on the legs but man what a gross meltdown
-
Lehner would be getting crushed for allowing those goals.
Absolutely
-
And the crowd of 1,200 goes wild!! You've got to be kidding me... Looks like they left their minds in the locker room
