mphs mike Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 feel that adding the following facts; that he blocked a shot with it + he left the game immediately without returning + he flew back to be examined by doctors = a determination of whether he needs surgery or not to repair the broken wrist/hand/finger(s) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two or less Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 :rolleyes: The dude had 2 straight seasons of playing almost the entire season, then picks up a injury and people mock him as a Connolly. Come on.... it's getting really annoying, really quick..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob_sauve28 Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 This sucks. :thumbdown: His goal against the Islanders was sweet. That nifty backhander into a hole the goalie left next to goalpost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksabre Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Someone else is going to have to step up and start scoring those garbage goals that Hecht likes so much. Maybe they can get Clarke to work on banking em in off the goalie's arm in practice? :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two or less Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 That wasn't a garbage goal, it was skill pure and simple Agreed. Harry Neale even mentioned it yesterday during the game. Most players who are behind the net, try to bank it off with luck into the net, while Hecht has a plan and that's what he's trying to do. It's not the first time Hecht scored a goal from there. btw, Regier announced Hecht had surgery and will be out a "couple of weeks". http://sabres.nhl.com/team/app/?service=pa...rticleid=386624 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfreeman Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Well, it sure didn't take long for our forward depth to get eaten up. Jeez. 2 games into the season and we're already down THREE centers. Question now is whether Gerbe (or anyone else) gets called up from Portland. I'd expect them to dress Ellis tomorrow night vs the Rangers. If everyone plays well, maybe they keep that going, but if we lose and don't look that great, someone will get called up and probably dress for the next game.

shrader Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Question now is whether Gerbe (or anyone else) gets called up from Portland. I said it before in another thread and I'll say it again. Gerbe is not a center. Why would they call him up given that we have 1-2 natural centers on the current roster?

By counting on Timmay we were already down one center in the preseason. And that was before the back/vertebrae injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sabres are going into MSG extremely shorthanded. I expect Lindy to reign in the offense and try to play road hockey and steal a point. With the lineup as is they can not go end to end with the Rangers. Maybe Connolly can man-up and maybe show up and play when the team really needs him. Then again why would this game be different than other games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think Jochen should grow a pair and play too. I mean, the guy's got nine good fingers! He's 90% -- and can't suit up when his team needs him. Euro trash. Jochen Hecht -- too liberal. We can't afford four more years of Hecht-Bush policies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Hecht returns he will probably still have more games played this season than Tiny Timmy Connolly. I'm sure when ever Timmy's "back injury" heals something else will fall off. I do agree with the Bush comment. It's amazing that some people would even consider voting for McCain and a continuation of the Bush legacy of destruction.
