North Buffalo

Caught game on iphone while at work... ER was dead last night.... Good thing.... What a fragile team... listened to Calgary announcers sing Cody Hodgson's praises in 1st period... Yet he still floated, avoided contact and wouldn't shoot. Stafford has disappeared except on one or two shifts. A goal in the third against and the wheels come off. I know we aren't supposed to talk about it non this thread but really this team is needs some offensive guys that can control the puck and put the puck in the net and not too many. But wow, they suck. Good for McEichel, tough to watch.

Yup and here goes a series of articles posted today about the above mentioned AVs and the rest of the sucking er tanking crowd... http://www.thehockeynews.com/blog/category/rumor-roundup/ http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=750321

Let me think about this while I put my testicles er spectacles on... :cry:

TSN still stating they think Bruins may make and effort at Stewart again... http://www.tsn.ca/countdown-to-tradecentre-the-cost-of-cody-1.191830 Still almost 6 weeks away.... March 5th at 3pm so nice to expectorate, but probably a little early yet...

Oof, they are bad.

Bout the only thing the Sabres faithful can enjoy...

Yeh pretty disappointing, But who knew Snow would be able to pull this off after his past incompetence.

I don't buy the argument. The Sabres D isn't the real problem, it is scoring and puck control. There have only been a few games that the Sabres have been blown out until recently with the revolving door at D. The Sabres need forwards that can score and bring the puck up the ice. Until that happens the D will occasionally struggle and would with Boychuk and Leddy. The Isle problems were not their forwards last year, but their D sucked. Now that they are playing D and have Tavares back it makes sense in hindsight that they are good.

LOL, I think that may have already happened... The get rid of Stafford thread is still alive.... I rest my case...

It helps that they have a number 1 guy in Tavares... Sabres still need one so who cares only in that the Isle actually got some players that make them legit instead of tanking along with the Sabres and giving them an extra shot at McEichel.

:P

Tank on... Getting closer to McEichel... Only 2 points back... Need Oilers to win or at least tie to make some progress in next game.

You obviously never saw McAdoo play. On some bad teams he led the NBA in scoring for 3 years. He won rookie of the year and was sixth man on two LA Laker championship teams. Gotta include him in there with Gil. You younguns need to research your Buffalo sports history. When I was young all the talk was about Cookie Gilchrist. Didn't see him play so I am not sure. Agreed! Why I fell in luv with Buffalo sports in grammar, middle school.

LOL, p.s. that is not a dandruff flake but dust on the camera's lens or sensor.... too out of focus for dandruff flake.

Jocelyn Geuvremont is a better D name than Boxmeer imo. Playfair was just ironic.

Sigh, yup this team is tough to watch with no players that can carry the puck up ice except members of an overwhelmed D. Just keeping an eye on the prizes McEichel and the rest of number draft pics. Last night was a very good win for the Carrion standings though.

Sabres look they just got tired.

Like Armia's puck skills, still learning speed of game all game, but his puck skill are impressive.

Sorry only my beer league team is aloud to carry that motto "Remember your an ICEHOLE, We Suck" No prospects allowed...

Offensive and Mike Milbury, aren't those redundant statements?

I am so loving this. If all the Sabres could play like Z, the Stanley cup would be in Buffalo this year. Keep it up.

Sitting here in CT scan waiting for the next Patient from the ER and doing continuing ED physics... Dose Response models... yikes... no wait, I am not listening to the game only reading this board. Bleacher has a report out stating Myers likely gone shortly. No real destination listed though. Keep the tank going.

My love is hurting to for both teams, especially the Bills. God they need a QB with an arm, vision and attitude. Sabres still have hope, but if they don't get a McEichel, it is going to a tough pill to swallow and I see some dark years to come... Dark I say. Doom and Gloom... straight out of Ghost Busters... Seriously though, it will be sad to suffer this much and then still have no hope. Sabres need some hope.

Ok, now that the Sabres have won 2 in a row, I hope they quit this winning and get back the priority of the McEichel sweepstakes. Please just stop scoring. I can deal with 0-1 losses. Keep playing solid D.

Wish I could send you my 29 inch Ariens snowblower to you.... Be Safe
