wjag Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Ottawa lost Winchester for three weeks last night in Florida. They also added Kuba to the list with a banged up wrist. That means they are missing: Alfie (another week), Spezza (beginning skating this week, maybe back before Olympics), and Michalek. They dropped a game to Carolina tonight losing their fourth in a row. Sitting precariously in the seventh spot one point ahead of the ninth place team. Drop Ottawa drop..

I hope you knocked on wood when you posted this. The Sabres have been able to stay away the major injury. Knock on wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe in jinxing teams. My insignifcant life and what I think or say has nothing, zero, nil, nada influence on what happens to the Buffalo Sabres. Injuries are a part of sports. Buffalo has had their fair share already this season. There will certainly be more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
end the curse Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Let's pray they plummet out of the playoffs...it sure would suck to be a first or second seed and get swept by those #%^$#!ers in the 1st round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would/will dread any playoff matchup that pits Buffalo versus Ottawa until such time as Buffalo shows they can beat them. Let someone else play them. As JuJu says, they are Kryptonite for the Sabres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let someone else play them. As JuJu says, they are Kryptonite for the Sabres. Didn't we all think the same thing in 2005-06? They blew the Sabres out several times in the first half of the season. That team found a way (well, actually several ways) come playoff time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That team found a way (well, actually several ways) come playoff time. That particular Sens team had Emery in goal though. I know he was in net again next year, however my point is that any team with Ray Emery between the pipes is very beatable as long as you go to the net and pick up a few of the half-a-gazillion rebounds that talentless hack leaves every night :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So sad too bad :cry: ..... karma is a be'otch when you've got Neil and Ruutu pulling their crap on a regular basis even if it's only against the Sabres.

Rip Titwide Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Though it would be great to see the Sens drop as far down as possible, I must say that a 9th place finish for them would be so much more satisfying to see. If they tank from these injuries, can you just see those jerks with a top 4 or 5 pick next summer because of their misfortunes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they tank from these injuries, can you just see those jerks with a top 4 or 5 pick next summer because of their misfortunes? A 9th place finish where they are tied in points with the 8th place team but lost some tiebreaker in which Chris Neil had a personal role to play would be just about perfect in my book.
