Taro T Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 I can't really believe people think we will blow this. There's no reason to think we'll blow it given the situation outside of battered fan syndrome, which sorry, but I'm not subscribing to any kind of curse. "Because Buffalo" is garbage and I'm going to go on one hell of an I told you so tour after the game tonight. Don't. Act like you've been there before. or... Don't act like you have been there before. This. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Because Buffalo" is garbage and I'm going to go on one hell of an I told you so tour after the game tonight. It will be music to my ears because at this point, I am more concerned about telling my kids they can't go to the game tomorrow. No way in Hell would I put them through that atmosphere when they are 7 and 9. Having to explain the fans booing the team that they love....forget about it. If Buffalo wins tonight, I can honestly say there will be a disconnect for quite some time...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure hope this garbage ends tonight so I can give you and Claude the tank you and credit you guys deserve for being so calm and cool under the circumstances.

"Because Buffalo" is garbage and I'm going to go on one hell of an I told you so tour after the game tonight. I will give you credit. During the Chicago game, I was ready to go off on your continued reassurance, and then Toews happened. I paid you due respect however. You've been good to me, but don't lead me on. There is too much consensus that Columbus has this in the bag. That's the only thing I don't like. They're a hot team -- fan appreciation night -- good goalie against lowest scoring offense in the league. That's when the unthinkable usually happens.

Georgia Blizzard Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Lindback in net tonight. This franchise is so dysfunctional it doesn't deserve a generational talent. Unf**king believable, one regulation loss away and you play the HOT goaltender. I guess Mr. Murray decided to spend day in Erie drooling instead of instructing his subordinate to FINISH THE JOB and start Hackett. Insane.

Georgia Blizzard Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 This is the Carrion Thread isn't it ? You know, the thread where fans gather to cheer their team to last place. For those of you more interested in the team picking 3rd and missing out on a generational talent, why don't you start a "I'm a wimpy fan, without any balls and love mediocrity" thread No wonder this organization take us real fans for granted.

There is not a single person interested in that. Not one. We're just not going to cry like little girls (no offense to little girls) and piss and moan about giving up all hope for the team if we don't get one.

So, when the proverbial sh*t hits the fan, we'll just pretend we have McEichel on the team. Will they still sell jerseys or will that be pretend too ? What's this called the Cinderella strategy of coping as fans who haven't won a Cup in our existence ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pi2000 Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) 7 more hours and this whole thing could be over. FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT HIS HOLY, HOCKEY GODS, PLEASE END THE SUFFERING! I'm gonna make a sacrifice to the hockey gods before the game, perhaps burn a puck or pour some beer over a bucket of pucks or something.... burn an old wooden stick maybe. Everybody needs to do their part to appease the gods. Edited April 10, 2015 by pi2000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
