inkman Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 That might be as low as you can possibly go for explaining a poor performanceI thought they played great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudacek Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 It feels weird saying this given the shot total (reliable or not), but that was probably in the top half of their performances this year. Remember what team we are taking about here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Our passing was pretty terrible for most of this game... ...and most of this season for that matter. What opporunities? We had 10 shots the entire game! We pull Neuvirth when? 1:30? Our first shot on goal was at :01? I've never seen an NHL team have more trouble moving the puck out of their end. It would be a joke if it weren't true: if you want to make sure the Sabres can't score, give them a man advantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJFIVEOH Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 You'd think being 54 games into the season that WGR would have all the bugs worked out by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the most part, our d-men really struggle with moving the puck (either passing it or lugging it). Zadorov may be the best of the lot in that regard and he is just a kid. And, our forwards rarely get any speed going through the neutral zone. They're easily stood up at the blue line by opposing defenders.

Jsixspd Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Ugly penalty that Myers took that ended up giving the Islanders the difference making goal. Sometimes he looks great out there - other times he acts as dumb as a box of rocks. It's frustrating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildCard Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 So my buddy went to the game tonight and keeps telling me how bad Zadorov played tonight. I didn't really pay attention to him, can anyone confirm/deny how bad he was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am Defecting Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Hello there. My name is Billy Buffalo. A lot of you know me as the mascot of the Buffalo Bills, but I'm also a licensed clinical psychologist. I just wanted to let you all know, that Ms. Akhmatova is going on Long Term Injured Reserve, effective immediately. Leaving the Arena tonight, I found her on South Park Avenue wearing nothing but a fake fur coat, muttering irrationally, swaying erratically, pretending that her bottle of lemonade was Ultra Premium Vodka. It's suspected brain damage - upper body injury, we say on the injury report. Having looked into her history, it appears that she injured herself using this emoticon, some few days back. :wallbash: Sad thing is, she wanted to post through it, poor gal, but I've seen my share of Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy during my work with the Bills, and I won't allow it. I'm putting her under observation at ECMC for no less than two weeks, And I'm advising that she stay away from Sabrespace for a good long time. I am sorry to have to break you this news on Pre-teen Punk Rock Night brought to you by Blue Cross / Blue Shield of all occasions, but the sooner we can get Ms. Akhmatova the medical attention she needs, the sooner we can get her nursed back to good health. And remember: it's an upper body injury, if anyone asks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
