GGM Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 His instinct was to pass, but then he remembered that everyone is trying to get him a goal. Then he tried to do both... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetweenThePipes00 Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 lol exactly ... Overall a good game ... got lucky on the quick whistle, but they took advantage of the 5-on-3 which the rangers could not ... Miller solid again ....

Guest kcmule Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 very excited to see what the sabres are doing this year, hope we can keep it up. what's up with drury does he always start so slow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deluca67 Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Kotalik on the PP point may be the best move this team makes this season. He could be as effective as when Miro played the point. He has good control of his shot and is not afraid to use. Drury was 16-3 on face offs. I big jump from the 14-14 last time out. I'm not sure that I like him being another Brent Peterson. He needs to bring more then face off wins. The Sabres are following a tried and true method of success. Win your games at home and split on the road. It's up to the fans now to make the HSBC a unpleasent place to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorty Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Anyone have an opinion on Max diving and getting called for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blugold43 Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 i did not see the play, but in GENERAL, i say good call. i realize you go down sometimes to draw penalties, but some players take it way too far. to me, when hockey players start looking like friggin soccer players, it is time to tighten up on the dives! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetweenThePipes00 Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 I hate when guys dive, but on that play I dont think he did it on purpose ... it should have been a non-call ... the guys stick didn't cause him to fall, but he didn't dive either ... he did that cartoon character thing he does where his feet get going too fast for his body and he tripped over his own feet ... he got right up and went after the puck, if he had laid on his belly and looked for a call I would have called it a dive ... but whatever, no harm done ...

Peter Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Nice win by Sabres. Yet, by no means did we dominate the entire game as the Buffalo News and some of the quotes seem to suggest. There were times when the Sabres were dominated in our own zone. It is a sign of good team, however, when you can win a game like that. You have to love the results that this team is getting so far. This has been a very enjoyable season. I just hope that we can start filling up HSBC on a consistent basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BetweenThePipes00 Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 Yeah, Buffalo is the only city in the country where attendance is better when the team is winning than it is when it is losing . :blink: Give it a rest. Fans EVERYWHERE are ALWAYS more willing to spend money on a better team, and it is always more obvious in a small market. If you really want to join the conversation, register and do it.

He was trying to pull off a fancy move and lost balance when the Ranger's stick hit his leg. Neither team deserved a call on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taro T Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 I have a question. Was at the game and was not certain what exactly the call was on the Rangers in the 1st. I know they called it delay of game, but was it because the Rangers were slow to the faceoff circle or something else? Any clarification would be appreciated. Also, to all the Pyatt haters out there, he finally had the game you've been claiming he's had the 1st few games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BetweenThePipes00 Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 It is an automatic delay of game if you get 2 guys kicked out of the faceoff ... that's what happened ... usually they drop the puck really fast after kicking out the first guy so it rarely happens, but this time it did ...

Don't take pot shots as a guest. Don't worry ... if the Sabres keep winning this board will get busy and the mods will whine to Scott until he caves on guest posting. Scott disappoints me. Kinda curious how no one jumped up and down yesterday when the Rangers were jobbed by the officials. Can you imagine how many posts about small market conspiracies there would be if the roles were reversed. No one circles the bandwagon like a Buffalo fan.

Quick whistles are a fact of life. The Sabres will be on the short end of more than one of those before the season is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott disappoints me. Since Scott owes you nothing whatsoever, I'd say that is your own problem. As for guest posts, if they are degrade the quality of the conversation, they will be discontinued.
