  1. I'll just say that after a disappointing loss to LA, the Sabres have collected 10 of 14 points. If you factor in that three of their wins came against opponents they are directly competing against for those playoff spots making them four point games, they accrued 16 of 20 points in the last seven games. Going to be a lot harder with Tuch out, but I am hopeful.
  2. Didn't they crush the Caps at home on Sunday?
  3. Still don't get it, but a Seinfeld reference means you are definitely a grownup,… well, maybe. I agree that not pulling the goalie a lot earlier was bad, like, weird bad. I, um, think I get your reference, now.
  4. Is there a setting on the board where you can't use a question mark in a thread title? They are BS.
  5. I thought it was a fun game (or, at least they made it fun by the end). Sucks they lost, but whatever. The CBJs deserved to win. The Sabres at least didn't roll over and made it a game. Again. Whatever. You can make me go to Urban Dictionary, or you can post like a grownup. It was weird.
  6. At least we gave the points to a team that doesn't matter.
  7. This is fun. I can't believe I'm having fun watching a hockey game at the end of February.
  8. They just ain't skating. One of those nights.
  9. Alright, I'm back to live. Let's win this thing. If they can score 4 against the caps in a period, that can score three against the Columbus Hummers. Although the BJs look like they didn't want to get embarrassed like last time.
  10. I just disagree. I don't see it as a luxury. Most of the times we see a lapse in D, it's a forward who has completely missed an assignment and left a guy wide open. Not the D's fault. We've got two guys that haven't even scratched what they are going to become, who will most likely be playing half of games (ala the Niedermayer and Pronger Ducks). Mule and Joker can fill another twentyish. The next two will probably always be the same guy. I want tougher more defensive minded forwards who know how to score and play D. We've got some growing already. Maybe it's just me, but I want even more.
  11. The Sabres do not need D. They need more forwards who can score and play D.

  13. KO can totally keep up with that line. I like the Quinn idea, at least for a taste. HineyStrokie’s forecheck is good enough to replace Tuch’s, I just don’t think his playmaking can, but maybe. I don’t like VO on that line at all. This sucks, but not as bad as I would have thought.
  14. Unless they are an above average goalie.
  15. I had no problem with Tkachuk tonight. This just seemed like a case of his reputation preceding him. I thought he actually pulled up on Skinner. He let him him know that he wasn't happy with the shot, but he certainly didn't overstep his douchebaggery. He just did what you would expect from a guy on the losing side. Krebs just let him know that no amount of pushback was going to be tolerated.
  16. So, if a player gets suspended in early October, potentially, the very next season in April, he could do it again and not be a repeat offender. Pure NHL genius.
  17. In the past, that has usually meant he's injured. Hope he's not fighting something.
  18. Ah, Gotcha. I thought he was referring to Cernak's other elbowing of a Buffalo Sabre. Repeat offender. He got 2 games last time, so 5 games? Well, it's the NHL so they'll give him 3 and say it's more than last time.
  19. This is incorrect. It happened in the second period of one of the Stockholm games. There was no penalty called on the play.
