Weave Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 Didn't see this posted yet: Sabres & Flyers by the Numbers I don't think it oculd look any more even until you get down to goals for and goals against. Wow. Philly looks way stronger when you note those two stats. Until then it looked like an even matchup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrannustyrannus Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I don't normally troll but hey it's the playoffs. Some fan on the philly board just said the flyers are going to rip off Gerbe's head and piss in his scull. Stay classy philly.... Cryers board I want to print these out and read them on the WGR 550 Whiner Line. They are hilariously ignorant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derrico Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I want to print these out and read them on the WGR 550 Whiner Line. They are hilariously ignorant. No kidding. There's being passionate about your team and then there's that. I guess that's why philly has the rep they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figster Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 The players have been sending a message back to Pegula ever since the day he took over as the new owner of the Buffalo Sabres. "Mr. Pegula, we appreciate everything you do in an effort to help us on our quest to win the Stanley Cup" Let the bodies hit the floor :ph34r: Somethings got to give...

Philly looks way stronger when you note those two stats. Until then it looked like an even matchup. There's not a huge difference in those numbers though. Both true. With as offensively challenged (and shaky on D) as the Sabres were earlier in the season, I have to wonder if those last two stats might not be close to even if you throw out Oct-Dec.

dumb_dumb88 Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 Keys to this series: Buffalo's PP will have to stay at or near the 20% clip. The defense will have to clamp down when Philly enters the zone, they are going to have to be much more physical. The Buffalo fowards are going to have to be much more aggressive in the nuetral zone when Philly carries the puck through. Miller will have to have a very good series given Buffalo's lapses on defense from time to time. This being said, I am not a firm believer in the old belief that playoff hockey is different from the regular season. In point of fact, it's not. A hockey game is a hockey game, regardless, if Buffalo sticks to the fundamentals and stays true on the defensive and physical side of the game that is to be expected, they should handely win this series. I say they do. Buffalo in 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weave Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 There's not a huge difference in those numbers though. The goal differential numbers indicates to me a good difference in team depth. In a long series that puts the Flyers at a distinct advantage I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some fan on the philly board just said the flyers are going to rip off Gerbe's head and piss in his scull. Stay classy philly.... Cryers board Gerbe would then put his head back on drink their piss and go score the game winner, why? Because hes better than you philly. The more you beat on him the more he thrives.

LGR4GM Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 maybe i am optomistic here, but I think that bufs defense is better than phillys. Granted they are not as seasoned but they are better as far as actual skill and ability going forward. Mike Weber is the most physical d we got an I feel like in the playoffs he could be a force. Myers and sekera are the keys to our def so if they can play good I think we can destroy philly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I hope the flyers fans come here and read this: YOU ARE SOFAKING RETARDED! Ive read comments from gerbe should die to we have no physical def, to the sabres are only desperate so thats why they won, the flyers have some magical playoff switch they can flip to become a monster killer.... shut up. The worst was the guy who was like we have home ice advantage so we will obviously win, yup against a team thats played better on the road I bet you will. Flyer fans are some of the most ignorant and self absorbed fans in sports so congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper they are definitely superior to our D. Hopefully our heart can trump logic and put us into the second round. Definitely won't be the first time it's happened.

LGR4GM Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I am going to attempt to not argue with anyone on this board while the sabres are in the playoffs. Might offer an opposing veiwpoint but we all want the same thing and therfore the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Gerbe I hope wrecks the flyers and he could potentially be one of the most underated players on this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dEnnis the Menace Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 I would seriously love to see Gerbe score a hat trick in Game 1 just to shut them up... I read thru most of that board, and I feel my IQ dropped 90 pts/second. there was no logic, numbers, or even statistical backing to half of those posts. I'm so excited for this to start!

LET'S GO BUFF-A-LO! As much as DeLuca can be a real PITA on here sometimes, he actually posted numbers on here earlier in the thread to compare us against them. I guess the Flyers fans don't believe in doing that. Must be a testimony to the education system in the city of Philadelphia and the surrounding metro area.

That's one thing about this board that I love, is even in arguments, people throw statistics and logic out there to back their claims. there? I don't even know what I was reading. I would love to see someone get lit up like Umberger by Campbell... Just seems justified now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
