DarthEbriate

Tuch, you want to be a hero? Go for the hit on Marchand there.

Hands covered in squid! At that speed will you be able to pull it forehand in time? It's just be like Beggar's Canyon back home playing Boston in the goatheads.

I've got a red ale, an okonomiyaki (with squid) recipe I've been waiting to try, and the lady of 'Ebriate is on a girls' weekend so there's no need for restraint in Star Wars quotes. Let's go, Buffalo!

Are we suggesting that Ted Nolan, or any other coach, would immediately whip the youngest team in the league (featuring at 41 year-old goalie to skew that age), with this goaltending overall, rash of own-goal-deflections, or missing its 2 most responsible longest-tenured PK/D-men while also having a 3rd PK/D-man playing on one foot, and also missing 1 game from their best player into a winner in the last 4 games against... ...@CAR, @TB next night, ARZ (winners of 4 of 5 and riding white-hot goalie Vejmelka who in November is 4-0 with .950% ), and then the hottest team in the league VGK with 9 wins in a row and an "release your anger!" Jackikin Eichwalker? This 5-games stretch (with Boston) is a murderer's row at this point in the season (not just who you play but when you play them) for an injured-D/cool-goalied team. But it's not the end of the season and it's not an indictment on the coach or a cause for fan overreaction. They'll right the ship in the next 6 with Joker back and maybe even the Muel along the way. (And hopefully win tonight as well.)

To protect them both from the Atlanta Thrashers, they were hidden by Brian Burke when they were drafted. The League knew, as I did, if the Thrashers were to have any joy, they would be a threat to not become the New-Jets.

Bummer. This 5-game stretch has been a brutal mess of self-deflections and offensive zone posts. One more to go. Kick Boston's ass and it'll be a good start to the next phase of the season. And... they need Muel and Joker. And a goalie needs to steal a game for them.

Score 4 on 4. Then tie it on the PP. Let's have some fun.

Sid and the Ovi form a symbiont circle. What happens to one of them will affect the other. You must understand this.

I'm going to catch the latest episode after tonight's game. It's pretty impressive that since the prologue/setup episodes (say 1-2), every episode has been better than the last. And the first episodes were fine, too. Just keep the hidden Jedi, lightsabers, Vader, inquisitors, etc... keep them all hidden. No teaser at the end of season 1 that Vader is now assigned to the hunt. It's not worth it. Keep expanding the galaxy.

Some learnings... Stop putting the 74-37-71 line out against Vegas' 4th line. They're overpowered. The Hague line... that's the one to target for that trio. Hinostroza needs to stay in the lineup. Damn... what a save! And that's the nail in the coffin tonight.

When he left Buffalo, he was but the learner. Now he is the master. Only a master of evil!

Got to stop giving up next-shift goals after scoring.

Got home in time to see Mittsie's mitts. Nice goal.

Need a game-tying goal to get the rally started? Sounds like a VO specialty.

If the below is to be believed as true, then Power-Boushh will be the 2nd pair and Clague will be the 7. All shall be well.

Always against Carolina losing the 4th of our top 6 defensemen. Heal up, R2!

Considering the Canes are on a roll and put 52 shots on Tampa Bay... I like our chances tomorrow.

Also... we're still out Boushh, Joker, and Muel. I think the 2/1 and 4/8/23 games are going to be fun.

Our young defenders will look like this in a couple seasons. Carolina is impressive.

Did they think it was contact with the head?

Dang. Hockey is a game with some weird bounces.

ESPN has shown the Sabres love (at least in the 1st). They want Tage to get giraffin' but the Canes take away his time and space really well --- like the first 4 games of the year.

I agree. Vinnie will be a good insertion for Tampa.
