GAME DISCUSSION THREAD

This club couldn't hit the broad side of a barn from inside the barn.

 

Watch it, we wouldn't want any negativity on this site. What with all the potential these sabres players have to bust it wide open and sail into the playoffs.

This games getting exciting now - for TB fans.

Amazing what having an exciting offensive team can do for a city.

As opposed to a truly offensive team :rolleyes:

Glad to see this team hit the ice tonight with the fire and intensity Lindy Ruff teams are noted for :doh:

Oh, bravo!

 

 

And nice goal Pommer

[North Buffalo]

This sucks, get Connolly off the ice... where is Niedermeyer. The Sabres were playing better with the kids. At least they had some hustle. This again is painful to watch.

[darksabre]

Great, now I can't even be mad at Pominville (tonight...)

[nobody]

And after 1.5 hour review - it's a goal!

[deluca67]

I know it's too much to ask. But, could it be possible that this team actually comes out and plays the third period like it matters? Maybe show a little intensity like they may actually know their playoff lives are on the line? If they drop eight points behind the Bruins tonight, with the Bruins having two games in hand, the playoff dream will be pretty much over.

I don't know why you're focusing on the Bruins, the Rangers are the team with the 8th best points percentage. Bruins are 6th.

Nice d by Leopold.

[darksabre]

5 forwards just screams Short handed goal.

 

And as I type this, it almost happens. Gotta love it.

Even with three games (two after tonight) in hand they are not catching the Rangers.

[nobody]

1 we want 2.

[bob_sauve28]

Power play needs to come through

You're fooling yourself if you think they're that much more likely to catch the Bruins

[darksabre]

Sabres need to just take a penalty whenever they get a powerplay. We get more shots on the PK than the PP.

[CallawaySabres]

Didn't see last nights game but oh my gosh, this is the most pathetic display of effort I have seen in a couple seasons. Really? This is how they play desperate hockey. This power play is the most blatant display of lack of skill on this team.

[darksabre]

Awful penalty shot call. Who'd Vinny pay to get that one? Thank you Miller for coming up big.

[nobody]

Alright - Miller's got a little shootout warmup. Now the Sabres just have to get there.

[deluca67]

It would be a great time, right now, after the penalty shot for Miller to call a TO and spend it reaming out his teammates at the bench. He's the best player on the team and it's time he act like.
