wjag Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 That was my worst fear ... it would be nice - and non-biased- to have Joe Beninati from the Caps calling the game. Anyway ... GO SABRES! A strong 60 minutes! He probbaly doesn't like the Canes either.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 How shoddy of Versus to assign the Canes' guy to any Canes guy. Can you imagine Rick doing Sabres games on Versus? Here's how tonight will end. Forslund (lowering voice): "And the puck... back to center ice... and... THE CAROLINA HURRICANES have been... defeated by... Buffalo. Postgame coming up." Almost like Rangers game only way ya knew we scored was a faceoff at center ice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
... Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Looking forward to my towel and my game-day program. Who would have thought back in August that THIS would be a big game? I hope the boys bring it tonight, and here's hoping the Habs and Rangers lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Stafford needs a catchy nickname because he likes scoring Hat Tricks... any thoughts... or a theme song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfreeman Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 This is a big one. The Sabres can take a big step towards locking in a playoff spot tonight. Carolina will most likely come out playing with desperation. The Sabres need to not play at 3/4 speed like they seem to do at most home games. I'm interested in seeing: 1. Which defenseman gets scratched 2. How Boyes-Vanek-Stafford and TC-Pommer-Ennis perform as the top 2 lines 3. Whether the PP can keep up its recent productivity 4. How sharp Miller is after taking Sunday off 5. Whether the D plays a bit tighter after a couple of not-so-great performance vs Toronto and Ottawa 6. Whether they can finally get to the DeLuca .500 (which I completely endorse as the "true" .500). Go Sabres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know which board member had said during his last hat trick, that the Sabres had a Staff-infection.......I thought that was pretty good.

OverPowerYou Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 This doesn't have the feel of any ordinary regular season game. Every time I visualize tonight's game, I keep thinking it's a playoff game. We should expect to see a playoff atmosphere at the HSBC tonight.

R_Dudley Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 I've been busy lately.... Why is Jochen out? The dreaded "upper body injury" is all they are saying. It was a re-injury so if anyone recalls the original issue ? For all the Hecht people have been giving him I have noticed a difference in the play of whole team with out him in the lineup. I feel they are a better team with him in there. I hope the lines can adjust and play accordingly becuase Canes are sure to be a desperate team tonight so Buffalo gets a chance to experience another playoff style game like TO was Saturday. Let's take out the trailer trash Sabres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunomatic Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Home game against a desperate team seems like a good time for a letdown based on past history. Hope I'm wrong. GO SABRES! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JujuFish Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 if we win though we would only have to win 9 games and carolina would have to win outright.... We need this, Lets Go Buffalo. Yes, we "only" need to win 10 out of 13 games, including tonight in regulation, to force Carolina to have to win outright. That's all. No biggie. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wjag Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 For the first time in a very long time, tonight's game WILL be a playoff game. I'm expecting the atmosphere to match it. A team of playoff destiny can't surrender this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfreeman Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Staahl is a whiny little girl You're kidding, right? Staal is at least 2x tougher than any of the Sabres top 6. I would trade Vanek and Roy for Staal in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
