R_Dudley Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Man best chance of PP and he hits the post. Only way I have seen a game like this have chances turn our way is if we are willing to really keep working harder and now even harder to get that first goal.. Comeon Boys lets get'r started :chris: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R_Dudley Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Excellant comment by Ray , their waiting too long trying to make the plays and washington is reading everything the Sabres are doing. He nailed it with that comment. :angry: Time for simple buffalo get it on net and drive the net thats how washington got 2... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sloth Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Sabres are a .500 team. I miss the days when Buffalo was almost a shoe in for the playoffs every year. Of course, I was rather young when that happend, but I still miss it. This season is going to be worse than last season... Phuck! Washington scores again as I'm writing this! Phuck! Phuck! Phuck!

R_Dudley Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Nice Boys playing with men, no feet moving, no physical play. I agree with Ray that one's on Miller over playing and not able to get back over..

R_Dudley Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Nice our PP and Washington has the better scoring chances... A listless performance according to Harry and Rob and couldn't agree more except I would use other profanities to describe it. :censored: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A listless performance according to Harry and Rob and couldn't agree more except I would use other profanities to describe it. :censored: Well you know that our power play only means that the other team can ice the puck without a wistle. After watching these first two, I'm really surprised there aren't a few dead sabres on the ice from breaking their own necks watching the puck movement of Washingtons PP. But you know, sitting there with the puck and looking for something when everyone else is sitting still makes more sense. :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crestwood Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Good lord. The organization should provide a refund for everyone in attendance tonight. A listless, gutless performance, indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R_Dudley Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Man this team at home should be crucified by the fans.... Playing unispired at home is unacceptable.... loved Ray's questions to Mair. "Looks like you guy's are just standing around out their".. Mair didn't know what to say ..... I can take a .500 team losing as long as it's not mailing in the effort.. Somebody needs to start kicking these idiots Arse. If washington was more interested they would be up 5-0 ...... Thats my prediction for final score here and man Lindy better work these guys News years day with all their hangovers because they ain't working tonight... :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 "Then Perreault Said to Rico" had a great story about a punishing practice Punch Imlach put the Sabres through when he was coach and got wind (almost literally) of most of the team going out after a loss and getting drunk. The practice had players bending over the boards and spilling the remnants of their alcoholic intake into the bench. I'm not sure much has changed in almost 40 years. This one has the stench of drunkards written all over it. Harry's inexplicable comment of the night: With Washington on a power play, he said the Sabres weren't generating many chances and were missing a chance to gain some momentum. He had no idea which team was on the power play. Finally the saddest moment of the night arguably has been the highlight of the night for the Sabres: Gaustad's shift where he recorded three hits in a row. It was such a transparent show, coming right after the boos rained down. What was the point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the idea of Lindy punishing these idiots with a hard practice New years day, don't work on game nights then you'll work for me during the day... :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crestwood Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Harry, you can hear Gaustad's hits because the crowd thinks they're at church. Lindy, I love you, I haven't called for your job yet, but isn't there something you can do here? I'm about ready to turn the TV off. One of the above posts may have said it best: The Sabres are the Bills on Ice tonight. Ughhhh. EDIT: Mair! Does this mean the Sabres are alive?

R_Dudley Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 The best line on the ice tonight easily, Goose, Kotalik and Mair. Hey Lindy those guy's can have new years day off because at least they worked hard tonight. The rest of these lazy Pucks need a really grusome work out on New years day. Roy was a waste tonight as well as the rest of these guy's..There was no urgency or many puck battles won just a disgrace :wallbash: Oh and last Buffalo, Washington just showed you thats how you close out a game when your leading..

carpandean Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 After listening to Goose after the game and watching him play, I'd say they need to give him a temporary "C". He sounded PISSED and said "they" (I'm pretty sure he meant "I") will start holding each other accountable. He said, without equivocation, that "it will change, it's going to start in practice and go through the game; no more shifts off." The way he said it, I really believed it. I could see Goose and maybe Mair tell Lindy that they need to have a player-only practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabattBlue Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Game thoughts... -Glad to see Gaustad hitting. Would have been nicer if when he started hitting the score was 0-0 instead of 3-0. Also, I am glad to see Adam "Gretzky" Mair score a goal, because he isn't earning his money doing what the Sabres are paying him to do. -Miller was a joke tonight. Horrible overplay on the first goal as his entire left goalie pad was behind the net(go watch the highlights) after making the first save prior to the goal. The good news is on a play like this, no one can slip one in under the back of the net. <_< Ridiculous rebounds on the 2nd and 3rd goals. -Another loss at home with 40 minutes of uninspired play. -Can Kotalik ever shoot the puck off the ic except for his backhand in the shootouts. -Roy, Vanek & Pominville were all passengers tonight. -When the PP is sucking why not mix it up? Throw Gerbe out there. -Don't panic Darcy. Everything is okay. -Good luck with the January gauntlet. -Is Harry Neale drunk or in the early stages of senility? During a Washington PP, he inferred that the Sabres could get some momentum if they could could a shot on the PP. The only problem Harry...they were killing the penalty.

BuffalOhio Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 I think the Sabres were disappointed in the news that Jauron has been retained. Great, now Skeletor has infected the Sabres, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpandean Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Post-game Interviews: Gaustad - Pissed off! "It will change!" Vanek - kind of nonchalant, but at least he admitted that he hasn't been playing well Miller - almost cried (literally); said he needs to play better Lindy - Also pissed. Will be sitting stars.
