Dave Dryden Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 I'm pretty sure Ovechkin was coming off an injury and was questionable on whether he would play. You can't tell me he was absolutely 100%. Perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffalOhio Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Totally jobbed by Auger and Watson. Called most things the Sabres did and almost nothing that the Leafs did. Our PP sucks, but it might have taken some life out of the Leafs for us. I can't stand that frog Auger. He always seems to favor the Canadian teams. Oh, and Miller was off his game starting with the first goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deluca67 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 With the Devils done, it's time to become a Caniac. What a story that would be!! Actually, despite the 3 point lead the Sabres are probably the underdog here. They have the Rangers who are 8-2 in their last 10 games and Washington that is 7-3 in their last 10. The Canes have Montreal 4-6 and the Islanders that are also 4-6 in their last 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 now that i am slightly over this, but only slightly, I am glad....had they won in regulation, they would have been in a pretty good position, but now they have to continue to sweat this out and they will only be better for it in the long run....that said, nothing is going to change how our Defense played anytime soon. we have some huge holes back there... Monty looked like cow dung tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PASabreFan Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 No ###### it was. Tell me, when the Sabres do have a performance worth applauding do we ever hear from you about it? Or do we hear about WTF waves and Ruff ruining young players instead? Do you and others really have the passion to rail against me after a game like that, but none to focus on the Sabres? See boi, fan-. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloFansR_Crazy Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 The way it usually works, for most normal teams, is to sit your starter when you know you have a stretch of games in a short period of time. We had the leafs, then Rags, Caps and Canes; all of which are much bigger/harder opponets; Miller shoulda got the game off tonight even if solely based on the opponent. Clearly the two days off did not help him. Im usually not a miller basher and I sometimes question Ruff; but nothing added up about the choice made tonight I see your point, but IMO this game was bigger than the Caps game. Considering the fact that Miller is something like 24-10 lifetime against the leafs, Lindy, like most considered this a good chance to get an easy 2 points. The plan was probably to play Miller tomorrow, Enroth Saturday (if Sabres win and/or Canes lose), and Miller Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffalOhio Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 LMFAO that replay was so funny. Looked like someone in the crowd put a bullet through Reimer's brain the way he fell over like that... Can't they call the dive against the goalie? Weber did all he could to avoid him and just barely brushed him. Are you F****kin kidding me; F**K these zebras I knew we were in trouble when I saw Auger was one of 'em. A terrible game by the defense to tonight and that goaltender interference was total BS Correctomundo! No doubt finally having been brought up to full speed on the vaunted Ruff System. Lines got all shifted around after Hecht couldn't continue. I didn't really miss him while he was out, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see that situation making sense too, and that woulda been great if the sabres won tonight; but that really puts the team in a conundrum if they lose tomorrow night; because then It appears that Miller will have to start both next weekend; I think enroth is up to the challenge, but that really is a tall order for a rookie at this time of the year. The pressure is not off this team; and ALOT can still happen with 6 games or so to go; we cant have a team brain fart like we did tonight, its just unacceptable at this time of the year; In saying that, I will have in beer in anticipation of a big win tomorrow night 2 points over the NY On the Rags :clapping: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a big negative. After tonight, Sabres chances of making the playoffs dropped from 91% to 85.6% Carolina's shot up from 11% to 16% If you really believe what you write, put some money on the Canes. You might get back your money lost on the Devils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdBlueNorth Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 wow. The two softies that Miller spotted didn't help, but I lost count of all the give-aways. No look passes right to the leafs sticks....out-hussled to the puck on just about every dump-in too many bad grades to hand out tonight - F's all around. Ticky-tacky penalties going the leafs way all game long - till they threw a token one our way in the third...not that we did anything with it. Lindy has some work to do...the players have to know they are in for some hellish practices after that stinker. :sick: :bag: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Dryden Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Who's ready for the first playoff game of the season this Sunday @ 5PM? You wrote before the first playoff was last Saturday against the Devils. This seems to be a moving target. Maybe the first playoff game will be the first playoff game.
