frisky Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 Harrington says Lalime is not on the ice at practice right now. Oh boy. Here we go.
RayFinkle Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 1. Who is Harrington? 2. Has anybody checked the sh-tter?
frisky Posted February 25, 2009 Author Report Posted February 25, 2009 Mike Harrington, Buffalo News reporter
That Aud Smell Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 he's a beat writer at the news. February 25, 2009 Bulletin: Lalime absent from practiceMaybe this is much ado about nothing or maybe it's major, major stuff. We're going to have to see but this much we know: The Sabres have started their practice in HSBC Arena today and everyone is on the ice -- except newly minted No. 1 goaltender Patrick Lalime. Jhonas Enroth is in one net and there's a smallish guy in the other one we think is goaltender coach Jim Corsi. Is Lalime sick? Banged up from the hit he took in the second period last night? Why would he get/take a day off after his first start, especially since Ryan Miller never does? Guess we have our first question for Lindy Ruff in a little while. ---Mike Harrington http://buffalonews.typepad.com/sabres/
wonderbread Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 Harrington says Lalime is not on the ice at practice right now. Oh boy. Here we go. Oh boy? maybe he slept in? Locked his keys in the car? Got a flat?
That Aud Smell Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 and maybe that ain't corsi in one net, maybe it's paul wieland. :rolleyes:
deluca67 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 He's logged into Sabre Space to get the real evaluation of his performance. :thumbsup:
mphs mike Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 and maybe that ain't corsi in one net, maybe it's paul wieland. :rolleyes: Now that brings back memories a little fonder than reading that this weekend was the 35th anniversary of me putting the Tim Horton tribute bulletin board up in the hallway at Blessed Sacrament!
Two or less Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 Call me crazy, but what if there's a trade coming? Lalime for Biron? Philly NEEDS to cut some salary for Danny Briere to return to the lineup. Nittymaki is Philly's #1 starter and if they don't move anyone, they cant play Briere who is apparently ready to play as early as this weekend. If Lalime goes to Philly for Biron, Philly saves enough money to play Briere and would have a backup and Buffalo would have a new starter. Maybe i am crazy. lol
cdexchange Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 Lalime for Biron? Maybe i am crazy. lol Probably, but it's fun to speculate :)

Maybe i am crazy. lol I've jokingly suggested this before, but it actually makes enough sense that I am still holding on to that smallest thread of possibility. Note: they actually don't need to clear up space to bring back Danny at this point, since he only has about $1.7 million left in cap hit, but if they want to make any other moves (or if Hatcher returns), they will need to clear cap space.

Please stop posting.
spndnchz Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 wah, wah, waaaaaaahhhhh So let's see if Biron is at practice.
Ogie Oglethorpe Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 Updated: he's got the flu. May not travel to Carolina and Sabres don't have any backups left.... http://blogs.buffalonews.com/sabres/2009/0...e-with-flu.html

frisky Posted February 25, 2009 Author Report Posted February 25, 2009 Shooter Tutor anyone? If Enroth goes out, can we then borrow the other teams goalie? Or maybe Dom will return.
Bmwolf21 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 Updated: he's got the flu. May not travel to Carolina and Sabres don't have any backups left.... http://blogs.buffalonews.com/sabres/2009/0...e-with-flu.html Just to play off the "Miller getting run on purpose" thread - Isn't this a time when it would be strategically sound for the Canes to run the goalie? No backups, rookie netminder...do we even have a "disaster" backup?
Kevbeau Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 Shooter Tutor anyone? He's got the five hole covered & won't bite on head fakes, but man does he suck on wrap-arounds.

May not travel to Carolina and Sabres don't have any backups left.... http://blogs.buffalonews.com/sabres/2009/0...e-with-flu.html from article: "Lindy Ruff just told us Patrick Lalime woke up in the middle of the net with flu symptoms." Well serves him right! If he's sleeping on that cold ice all night he's bound to catch a cold. Dumbass :wallbash:
smith Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 IN ENROTH WE TRUST!! ...and sign Corsi to a one-week contract. that should get us in the playoffs, right?

If he's sleeping on that cold ice all night he's bound to catch a cold. Dumbass :wallbash: The snooze is horrible at proof reading their online edition. I read the paper everyday and see on average 2-3 errors a day. It leads me to believe that they just post it with out proof reading. I just read this little gem in the snooze as well Charles E. Brackett, of Landon Street, died Tuesday in the Trauma Intensive Care Unit at ECMC, where he had been in critical condition after being in the head and body, authorities said.
spndnchz Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 Okay all you 'old timers' when was the last time the Sabres, or any team for that matter, was in a situation like this?

It leads me to believe that they just post it with out proof reading. I just read this little gem in the snooze as well In their defense, it is a quote from a blog. Harrington is likely at the arena updating it from his blackberry or something. It isn't an "offical" print.
Claude_Verret Posted February 25, 2009 Report Posted February 25, 2009 It just wouldn't be right to be playing a meaningful late season game against the canes unless we are digging deep into our AHL squad to play back-ups who aren't NHL ready.
