carpandean Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 The Islanders are by far the best team in the league. We will have to play absolutely perfectly just to have a chance. /reverse psychology Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cilevel Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 The second sentence isn't far off. That has to be the mindset. Is it time for Lindy to say "there are no gimmies in this league" again? This is true. They have played better recently, but they have also played better teams, and they seem to play worse against lesser teams (particularly at home). Their mistakes bite them in the arse regularly, so this team has to be on their toes every night or enter into a big risk of losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FearTheReaper Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 After losing last night i dont really have much optimism about the game today. After we made it 2-3 with 2 minutes to go,it felt like we were going to tie it up,and win it. I dont know what it was. But the final 2 minutes of last night felt very epic to me. We played a pretty good game,against a very under rated team,and i thought we could pull it off. For some reason those final moments had a "make or break" season feel to them. Its almost mid way through the year,were surfacing at or below .500 just about every game. The Caps are a great team. We could of really gained alot of confidence with a win. But we didn't. It'll very interesting to see how we fair from here on out. But i really think this season is done. No playoffs two years in a row after 2 consectutive ECF's? As for tonight,well i'm not sure. I think the bad momentum carrys over and we lose again. Prediction: Islanders-4 Sabres-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksabre Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 Can this team please just make up its mind as to whether it sucks or not. Either win the close ones or just stop playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 Can this team please just make up its mind as to whether it sucks or not. Either win the close ones or just stop playing. :thumbsup: This is the essence of being a Buffalo fan(Bills or Sabres). No other fans have to wait as late in games to find out whether their team is going to win or lose(more often than not lose as of late) than us. When the Bills had a kneel down this week I almost fainted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spndnchz Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 If this team feels the way I do they are pissed off, ready to take off someone's head, lock down drag out score many and drink a beer after winners tonight. Sabres win 6-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well from what i can gather this guy "Adam Mair" gets pretty upset about losing. But he might be the only one who does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R_Dudley Posted December 27, 2008 Report Share Posted December 27, 2008 Well missed the game last night but sounds like I did not miss much. I also cannot watch it tonight but I am not sure I would want to ruin the extended Holiday anyway the way these lads play :rolleyes:.. So let's see what we got going here tonight ? -an injured Vanek -another local boy/rookie making his first start at home, -The break up of Hecht and Pominville -Miller back in goal. This team just needs to get back to playing smart 2-way hockey, and they need to play a complete game. Miller needs to play some consistent hockey and they just need to win... I don't care if it's 1-0 lets just win baby... No predictions from me tonight so I don't get too upset if they don't respond... Lets go buffalo, get off the losing streak NOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob_sauve28 Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Seeing Hecht's face after he scored that goal was worth watching this game alone. Wow, he was happy. Max is on a two game point streak! Who knows, maybe he has turned a corner. That goal was pretty from Kotalik to Max to Hecht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Hecht's face was priceless. Kennedy made a nice play along the wall to support Numminen, who was chasing down a puck but had no chance to get to it. Kennedy came down, bumped with the Islander and chipped the puck to Numminen, who had an easy clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foligno's Nose Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Max is on a two game point streak! Who knows, maybe he has turned a corner. Extremely wishful thinking. But, yeah, wouldn't that be great! Good start. They have to play three periods like this though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SabreInFla Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 I'm way too lazy to do the research. but I would love to know how many players have their first goal against the Sabres so far this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
