Realist Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 I know everyone's excited about Pegs, but we still have a real must win game tonight against Atlanta. Hopefully the boys are excited as we are and come out smokin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude_Verret Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Yes, huge game tonight obviously. You would think there would be something symbolic pre-game to show the fans that a new era has arrived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 I wonder if the Sabres lay another egg if Terry will brush it off -- "no gimmies in this league." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NNYSABRESMAN Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Leaving Watertown at 11:00 for Buffalo. Been looking forward to this game, but even more with the new regime in place. LETS GO BUFFALO!!!! :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverPowerYou Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 -4 game home losing streak -new owner -a must win game -Atlanta stinks I honesly believe the players will play inspired. Buffalo fans are superstitious and ritualistic - we all believe that something like new ownership is going to change the world, and give our team momentum for the rest of the year. Buffalo wins tonight 9-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallawaySabres Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Pegula was just on WGR with his crew and they said if you are allergic to goosebumps, you might not want to be there for this one.....I did not pick this game as one of my 21 games during the ticket draft but you better damn well believe I just bought a single seat at Center ice after I heard that comment.......

You would think there would be something symbolic pre-game to show the fans that a new era has arrived. Hope it's not pre-game in front of 11,000 people. I'd be thinking more along the lines of during the first commercial break. Let the tension build a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claude_Verret Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Tear down the slugs! Tear down the slugs! Tear down the slugs! Absolutely. I sent a text to WGR yesterday about making HSBC slug free when they were asking for things that fans would like to see done. The host mentioned later that tearing down the slugs was far and away the #1 request from fans. How great would that be if fans walked in tonight and those abominations were gone entirely.

R_Dudley Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Well back to what this is all about, winning hockey games. Wish I still worked and lived in Bflo so I could have bought a ticket to the first game of the new era like Callaway. I have to be content to watch on my direct tv Center Ice. I hope they show some of the pregame hype to see what Pegs has in store for his first game as owner. Let's just hope the players are not too caught up in all the hoopla and come out and play like men possessed on getting this mission started. Lets' go Buff'a'lo and lets get it started the right way. Lets' make your new Daddy Warbucks proud of his new team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kristian Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 I know everyone's excited about Pegs, but we still have a real must win game tonight against Atlanta. Hopefully the boys are excited as we are and come out smokin'. And that's the real question - Are they even capable of being excited? Sorry, don't mean to bitch and moan, obviously there's a lot of reasons to be optimistic, I just don't think the current team has "it". Either way.... And this is from the heart ..... GO SABRES!

LGR4GM Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Maybe they buried the slug at center ice today and Will win tonight because if they dont Pegula will drill them headfirst into a wall for sucking :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Buffalo Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 I know this game is important, but please Tin Man don't go out and think you have something to prove to the new owner and get hurt. You are much more valuable as trade bait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they dump players like Connelly and Montador at the deadline we are still only 5 points out of 8th and 8 points out of 7th. I think even with kids from Portland called up we can still make it. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROC Sabres Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 According to Hamilton's report: Vanek back to right wing with Ennis on left. No mention of who is centering but I would have to guess Hecht. Pommers moved to left wing with Timmy and Staff. Other two lines are same story as usual I'm guessing. And I just saw that Rivet was put on waivers??? Dunno if that is true or just someone saying they wanted it to happen. EDIT: Guess so. link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are much more valuable as trade bait. Disagree - Whatever makes Timmy go away, be it a trade, injury, or a freakin' alien abduction, I'm all for it. This team looks so much better with Timmy out of the lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobody Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 How come this isn't pinned? The only mod who does their job is Chz - and she is on vacation. Otherwise all of the Pegula love fest thread would have been merged already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
