Hecht is back. Connolly is back. I am back in Buffalo for the game! All is well with the world. This is a back to back situation, with the second game being a division opponent, so i think that Lindy may play Lalime. However, it wouldn't shock me if miller got both starts this weekend. The big story though is hecht's return, the line juggling, and the guy who either gets waived or sent to rochester. I think that stafford should be sent down just cause he can. It would send a message, but then again, lindy is a players coach. He'll probably waive ellis. The actual game should be interesting. Atlanta beat the sabres the last time they played, so i could see some revenge served tomorrow. Hope that the 3 day layoff hasn't hurt the team. play like they did in new jersey and all should be well. Cya at the game. PM me if you want to meet up and get a beer.

 

 

edit: I guess if i'm going to have the thread open at a specific time, i should hide it till then! Anyhow, its open now.

So, wait, is the bad luck thing with GDTs "24 hours before" or "day of"?

 

I have always gone with the 24 hour rule. I wanted to make the thread and have it open at midnight to fulfill the day of rule, but i screwed it up, soi just opened it early. I can't post tomorrow morning cause i'm driving to buffalo early. So, you can blame me if we lost tomorrow.

I'd say Miller goes tomorrow and Lalime on Saturday. I'll be in Boston this weekend, missing my first Sabres game tomorrow (going to Pirates game in Portland) and then Sabres on Sat and Bills on Sunday. But, i do think Miller plays vs. Atlanta, i don't want to say anything i'll regret later as we learned the other week, but, with a hot goalie in Miller, i think Atlanta game is a VERY win able game. Boston played Tim Thomas tonight, he looked good, but didn't get a shutout. I would suspect they will use Manny Fernandez on Saturday night.

 

That all said, i think getting 3 points from these two games this weekend would be a massive success.

I might be wrong here, but can't Hecht play the wing? Is it crazy to think (assuming Stafford gets sent down) that Hecht just slips into the first line with Roy centering? I kinda like the idea of Vanek and Hecht playing together. Hecht puts the puck on the net, and Vanek is one of the best "garbage goal" scorers I've ever seen. Seems like that could work well even though him and Pommers have great chemistry together...... I may be way off here, though.

I'm willing to bet no one gets sent down to Rochester.. Now, maybe, just maybe, Portland...

Here's hoping you go 3-0 on the roadie! :thumbsup:

As I've said in the past, I'm not making a prediction on the score. After a 5-1 butt kicking the Sabres were given by Tampa, I thought it was a jinx to predict. A lot of us thought the score would be the other way around in the Tampa game.

Give em' all you got tonight Buffalo!

I'm going to blame Tallinder if we lose tomorrow, regardless of how he plays.

very nice.

So who is the official SS whipping boy now, I'm confused. Is it Staff infection or Mr. Hanky?

 

Does anyone know if Peters is playing tonight? We all know if he doesn't Michael Boulton will be running everyone wearing a slug.

As was pointed out yesterday by a fellow poster, the 3 current members dating back to last year or even earlier are...

Peters

 

It seems like there is grass roots movement to get Stafford sworn in, but he is not there yet. There is also support for The Skill & The Rapist(allegedly).

I prefer the name "Swedish Rapist". It's like a far more evil version of the Swedish Chef.

Defenseman Mathieu Schneider has a hip flexor and won't play, I think he played like half the game time so a nice loss.

 

Atlanta on a two game win streak after losing all but two of their first 11. And yeah, one of those wins was when they beat us.

 

I won't call a score, but the Pigeon nets one.
