Brawndo Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Great work as always CB. The Devils scored six last night, do that have any left for tonight? I think so 4-2 NJDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kishoph Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Ennis pointless in the last 3 games, 4 games for Stafford. Looking for both of them to get on the score sheet tonight. Hackett has not looked sharp in the last 2 games, he hasn't had a lot of help from the defense, but that's the norm for any Buffalo goalie. Ville Leino scores a :oops: ...................................never mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallawaySabres Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 This should actually be the best part of the season because every team Buffalo plays now is on bubble or in playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcsaberks Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Does NJ start Brodeur who was pulled early in 2nd last night? I'm looking forward to seeing him and Jagr, both 1972, impressive. 2nd and 3rd oldest players in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted April 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) Does NJ start Brodeur who was pulled early in 2nd last night? I'm looking forward to seeing him and Jagr, both 1972, impressive. 2nd and 3rd oldest players in the league. I can't believe that Brodeur has stated he wants to play next season and expects to be a starting goalie next season even if it's not with the Devils. I know he's a proud athlete, but it's time to call it a career. Edited April 1, 2014 by 26CornerBlitz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyldnwoody44 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 Good work CB, Picked up some cheap seats on stub hub, like 9 bucks a ticket, I'm on call so if I have to be pulled away then it's no big deal. . Just going to see the young goalie play and gus, along with the other young guns playing hard. Please win tonight, the tank is basically assured Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the home stretch and the stench of being in the season long tank is making me :sick:. On a positive note, the 2014 draft lottery is two weeks from today.....Here's to Hope!

ubkev Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 26CB I must express my disappointment with your GDT. Tom Sestito is a Vancouver Canuck. His older brother Tim Sestito is a New Jersey Devil. Come on man!!! Seriously though, how do you have the patience to go through all this every game for this garbage team. Gold star for you!
