LGR4GM Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Don't be afraid to give up the good to go for the great. John D. Rockefeller Don't find fault, find a remedy. Henry Ford Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act. Action will delineate and define you. Thomas Jefferson Do not fear greatness. Some men are born great. Some men achieve greatness. And some men have greatness thrust upon them. - anonymous Lets find out who our sabres really are... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMatrix31 Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 So what, a guy in LA would only get Games 3-6 in full? Or will NHL Network carry the TSN games? And crap. Crap crap crap. Game 6 would be right smack dab in the middle of Easter Sunday. I'll still be at church when the puck drops.....what the hell am I gonna do.....

Not in church but in the middle of nowhere with the wifes family. Don't even think I'll get WGR reception up there. Guess I can PVR it but so worried some idiot will tell me the score before that. Idiot, ok that's not Easter weekend talk, I appologize. Let's Go Buffalo in 5! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R_Dudley Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 This will be a very tough matchup. Phl has to be the favorite for a lot of the reasons other mention. Depth of scoring. Shut down D with Pronger. More physical. As posted earlier Hartnell has already gone on record saying they will be physical to try and disrupt Sabres puck carrying and speed. We can't change the team we have so I look at Montreals formula from last year of speed, team defense, strong goal tending, capitlalize on chances and some fortunate bounces. Some pundits are also saying the Sabres are too young/green on the blueline for the playoff wars. Maybe that's just the advantage we need, to young and naive to know we are not supposed to be able to beat a playoff tested team like Philly. With strong goaltending by Ryan I say thats a perfect storm for a first round upset and that the kids we be alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Some pundits are also saying the Sabres are too young/green on the blueline for the playoff wars. I agree with the pundits. With Leopold in the lineup they are very inexperienced(Myers, Sekera, Weber & Butler). Without Leopold in the lineup(replaced by Gragnani), they better pray some of the blueliners are oblivious to the playoff pressures. If I was Lindy, I'd throw Morrisonn in there for Game 1 and hope he gets his act together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesportsbuff Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 SOO PISSED at the Sabres.com/Tickets.com ###### ticket system. Put me in some ###### ###### "line" where i'd be "randomly selected" to buy tickets. It's 9:30 already and I'm sure the tickets are long gone but I'm still in the queue supposedly. I can't stand the way tickets work. Season ticket holders are selling $60 seats for $150 on stub hub. Cool. Glad you like the Sabres so much that you buy season tickets just to make a profit and not go to any games... :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: mods may as well just block my account for today cause anything I say is going to be in a rage of fury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you like the Sabres so much that you buy season tickets just to make a profit and not go to any games... Whether I'm a STH or someone who bought tickets at the box office, why can't I have the choice of selling my tickets and make a profit off them? Maybe some people can't go to all the games or maybe they just don't want to go. It has nothing to do with how much I like the Sabres. If you have a problem with this, become a STH. Until then...sucks to be you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
