Kind of like the blue jersey with the red mountains on the side in the first Youtube video.  


He's Kulikov's replacement ;)

For the Metalurg, Kulikov will be his replacement.   :P

Viktor Antipin scores the GWG on the PP, registers a game-high seven shots on goal and one blocked shot in a game-high 25:36 of TOI. #Sabres

 

 

Sounds like a horse. I bet DB will pair him with Ristolainen and make them both play 30+ minutes together. Maybe we'll fix our D issues by just playing our top 4, until they collapse from exhaustion or something. The other 2 guys can do their best Reinhart impressions and sit and watch the game without playing.

Not sure what other info Wilson gave to this, but Antipin's team swept Bars Kazan with this win 4 games to 0 and advance to the KHL finals now to face the team with Datsyuk and Kovalchuk.

Did we win the battle because he grew up loving Mogilny, or did we win the battle because all of those playoff teams decided he wasn't worth their time?

 

Oh how I love the pessimistic attitude of Buffalonians.. Wallow in it, bathe in it, get it all over you. I bet it feels just wonderful

 

 

or could be about future and gaining playing time.

 

playoff teams today are rebuild teams tomorrow...   

 

For all the hatred fans throw against the Sabres we still have a very young and talented core and only need a few key pieces. We have a few older overpaid vets that will be purged in the not to distant future so there are potential lineup spots and playing time in the near future for these players

 

having owners who wil commit to winning for better or for worse also speaks ot these players knowing they are not going to be hung out to dry.. there is obviously commitment to a championship in Buffalo (for better or for worse)

Overly optimistic can be just as annoying as the overly pessimistic. Every team thinks they are only a few pieces away. Time stands still for nobody so by the time we lose all the aging vets like Gionta, Moulson, and Gorges then Okposo will be in his 30's and O'Reilly will be nearly there. What happens if their production falls off a cliff? We think and hope they'll just plateau and then age like wine vs milk but we thought the same thing about Moulson, especially given that his production was never predicated on speed to begin with.
