Iron Crotch

They're going to beat us over the head with their frog legs.

I'm still pissed that we took Pierre Turgeon #1 overall instead of Brendan Shanahan in 1987... had we picked Shanny, I think we'd have fewer suspensions these days. ;)

"The problem?" :blink: :D

CoHo is not that good, but the rest of the team is so bad that he looks like a super-star in comparison. Classic contrast effect.

This is as untalented of a team as the league has seen in a long time... we have cast-offs and nobodys on all 4 lines...

Mitchell is a worse passer than Weber.

He's as leaky as a submarine with a screen door. On another note, I'm not liking Mitchell much this game...

I think we should trade CoHo for Kassian. :flirt:

Uh... Nathan? :(

I've been anti-Weber for a while... it is great to have heart and he certain has heart... but ya gotta have some talent to go with the heart and that is where I think he is lacking. Great kid, tough as nails... but...

Go Sabres! I like seeing the Canucks implode. :devil:

Drew is built to play a physical game (6'2 210) whereas some of the "old core" were not. On that note, we certainly miss the goals that Pommer and Vanek brought... but I think it is easy to forget how utterly lacking in passion the Sabres were for several years with the "old core." We'd sleepwalk through games and get the same tired interview from "nice guy" Pommer after the game. At least this team has some fire. Now they just need more skill...

The Bruins have won 10 straight. A perfect 10-0-0 over their last 10 and they have a realistic shot at beating out St. Louis for the President's Trophy.

You like the "fanny smacking?" :P This team does have a fair amount of chemistry/character. Add some forwards to the top of the lineup and Pysyk & Risto on the back-end and they might not be awful next year (they key word being "might").

Looks like Hackett could hack it afterall. And, do we have to wait until the end of the year to get rid of Ville? Edit: To be more specific, it wasn't a thing of beauty, but I thought Hackett's rebound control was very good.

Sabres win! Do not adjust your set! Sabres win!

Great play by Rudy to save a goal.

3 point night for Conacher.

It's an offensive explosion for this team!

I haven't seen him play much, but supposedly he is easily rattled. I'm watching the Edmonton feed, which I'm diggin'. Great announcing team.

I can now see why the book on Hackett is he loses his cool too easily.

Mmmm... Fat Tire...

John Scott with the screen.

We're a much better team without Ville. :P

Some nice short handed chances.
