Great way to close out the home portion of the regular season schedule. Miller could not have picked a better time to catch on fire...hopefully he stays that way for a while. LEAFS SUCK!! GO SABRES!!

Maybe it was wishful thinking on my part. The good news is Miller played well and they scored timely goals in the third period. Once again Habs fans...take your stupid ole ole chant and go drown your sorrows with a case of beer or two.

Sabres 2 Montreal 1 as they start to tighten up play in their own zone for the playoffs.

You bring the crowbar and flashlights and I'll bring a couple of six packs. :rolleyes:

I would love to be able to go in the Aud one more time and just walk around for a couple of hours. What great memories.

I was at this game and it is still is one of my all time favorites.

I don't care that the Senators were missing half their defense. The bottom line is that for the most part we shut down their offense and dominated them on their ice. One thing that bothers me...how hard is it to pay attention to where Alfredsson is on the ice at all times.

I don't understand Lydman. At the beginning of the season he was brutal, then paired with Tallinder, the two of them were as good as any pairing in the NHL and during this slump, they have been horrible. Sabres somehow manage a 4-3 OT win!!!

Briere is money in the bank around the net. Great win and ride the momentum into tomorrow's game where the Flyers get buried and their thoughts of 4th place go down the drain.

I'd like to see the Sabres score 2 goals in the first 10 minutes of the period and an empty netter to cap off a 6-3 WIN. GO SABRES!!!!

There is only a two point differential between the Rangers and the Flyers and they have 2 more games against each other. It could just as easily be the Rangers we end up playing in the 1st round.

Unbelievable. :(

Brian Campbell...another solid game finishing up a -2. He should be nailed to the bench come the playoffs except for the PP.

Marty...Nice soft goal after the Sabres battle back to make it 2-1. <_<

Connolly's turnaround continues to be amazing. That move on Drury's goal was FAN-tastic. I get the feeling we may not see Hecht back until the playoffs.

Lindy is going to have them fired up. Buffalo 6 Boston 1

1. Bad team defense 2. Bad goaltending 3. DUMB PENALTIES!! The Sabres have ZERO chance in the playoffs without Miller playing well and at this point in the slump, I'm starting to wonder what is going on with him. You can't let in 4 or 5 goals every game and chalk them all up to "he had no chance or it was a great shot". Sooner or later he has to make the big save. Biron is NOT the answer, so if Miller does not get out of his funk quickly, the Sabres are screwed. As far as the penalties go, these guys aren't thinking at all. Tallinder takes a stupid high sticking penalty when the play was nowhere near him, Dumont trips a Ranger behind the New York net, etc... On Jagr's game tying goal, Lydman and Tallinder were both in the same corner of the rink against the boards. Hey guys...one of you plays left defense and one plays right defense. The one playing left defense probably shouldn't be in the right corner of the rink.

C'mon Sabres...I'm begging for a win! :rolleyes: Buffalo 4 New York 2 GO SABRES!!!!!

At the risk of repeating myself...CAMPBELL SUCKS IN HIS OWN END! On the first goal, he just stood there as the Ottawa player went between him and McKee. On the third goal, he was standing by himself next to the net as the puck went in. I'd swear he was flinching thinking the puck might hit him instead of the inside of the net. Lindy needs to stop this freefall quickly. I completely disagree with those on this board who would rather finish fifth or sixth instead of fourth. Darcy...You didn't want to disrupt team chemistry by not making a trade, but it looks like the chemistry has fizzled??

I've gone on record as saying this line is a nightmare in it's own end. I have to believe they will be quickly broken up in the playoffs if they do not get it together from a defensive zone perspective.

The Flyers are only 5 points behind the Sabres(The Sabres have two games in hand). I wouldn't call 4th place a lock. There is a lot of hockey to be played yet.

I just got home from the game and I only have one comment after another disappointing loss. When the Sabres made it 4-3, it was the loudest I have heard the crowd all season long. GO SABRES!!!

Buffalo 3 Carolina 0 Miller gets his first shutout. Roy gets two goals. GO SABRES!!!!

-Another zero effort game. Not a good sign. Who took away my Sabres and replaced them with these Zombies. :angry: -For all the asst. coaches did in Lindy's absence, they might as well have setup a cardboard cutout of Lindy. For the second night in a row, the offense was pitiful. Did they even consider changing up the forward lines even a little bit. -Why is Pyatt on a line with Briere and Dumont? -I would make a statement to these guys on Wednesday. I would call up Paille and Novotny and sit Peters and either Pyatt or Vanek(If Connolly is ready, sit all three of them) for a game. -On top of all the same problems the Sabres had in Ottawa, add bad goaltending to last nights game. -Have the Sabres forgotten how to make a body check. Did anyone see the lame "Carubba Collision of the Game"? It was Tallinder getting away with a penalty as he sent a guy flying into the board by tripping him up. -They have home games(Carolina & Ottawa) against two teams ahead of them in the standings. They need to snap out of this funk and be ready to play. GO SABRES!!!

Peters 1st period stats...One shift, odd man rush for Atlanta, 1-0. <_< You spoke to soon. It was almost like Marty was afraid to leave his crease in order to try and catch the puck in mid-air after it hit him.
