Hecht played that 3 on 1 the worst ever. Flung it so fast in front no chance for a tip, but it wasn't a shot. Useless

And how long did he get signed for??? :wallbash:

Hecht has no forehand shot, always uses the backhand... Pomminstein alwsys shoots from the dot... These guys can be predictable...

Ales has to change up that move sometime to keep goalies on their toes.

 

Pommer off the cross bar.

 

Tim with Ales's same move gets shut down.

 

They didn't play bad as a whole but hell they gotta put these pucks in.

Can any one F*%&*%$ score except Vanek?

 

I'm pissed after watching them blow this. Going to bed like its sunday night after a bills loss :death: .

Darcy needs to bring us some offensive talent and fast. When Kaleta is the only goalscorer there are problems. I don't care who we trade, give me someone with some balls who can score. The 3rd and 4th line looked great tonight, but we need something from the other two lines. Connolly was invisible and I don't even want Pomminstein on the ice.

 

We need offense and we need it bad.

I hate leaving Carolina only with one point, but I'll take it. If anyone wants to question Lalime, I think tonight is proof enough that the Sabres will be just fine with him in net so long as he gets goal support. Lalime played extremely well tonight even with the flu. The only goal he gave up was on a screen shot that he couldn't see. The Sabres played extremely well defensively tonight, and I really liked what I saw as they gave up no PP goals, which has got to be a first in like 10 games. Extremely gutty performance by Lalime. I may sound like the Sabres won even though they didn't, but there was a lot to like about this game even though the Sabres lost.

 

The Sabres absolutely have to put away the chances they get to score goals. They outshot Carolina and had some amazing scoring chances that they did not put away. They have to convert, especially on that 3-on-1 in OT. No excuse. The shootout let the Sabres down tonight. I'm a little surprised that Lindy is using Connolly so much as he has not been too successful in recent attempts. I would have gone with Kotalik, Stafford, and Pominville, myself. Kotalik really telegraphed his move tonight and I think Ward knew that Kotalik was going to go backhand the whole time and snuffed it out.

 

Oh well. I hate only coming away with 1 point, but I liked the effort and the solid defensive play by the Sabres, so I am encouraged with Lalime in net so long as the Sabres give him some goal support. Ok, on to Long Island where hopefully we can leave there with 2 points and potentially Andy Sutton, Bill Guerin, Trent Hunter, or Doug Weight.

You had to know we wouldn't be able to score on Ward. So we lose the game and our best defenseman. Quickly losing faith here.

I haven't lost mine. It just depends on what we have faith in.

Vanek, Miller, and Spacek are out. Buffalo didn't seem to play w/ a lot of energy in the second and third periods. Yes, the refing sucked, but the Sabres missed a few great scoring opportunities. No excuses.

The question now is whether or not the players will give it all they got or simply roll over. I think it's going to be tough for the Sabres to play 110% effort hockey w/ their most important players out. Buffalo is now out of a playoff spot. Do they want to get back into a playoff spot or do they want an early vacation? That is the question.

I'm sure the locker room is rather quiet right now...

Game thoughts...

 

- About as good an effort as you are going to see from Lalime is pissed away.

 

- Hecht's play is absolutely mind boggling.

 

- Sekera has some really good offensive skills which I believe will come to the forefront in the coming years.

 

- Kaleta showed why he should never be in the press box again. His LEGAL hit on BrindAmour was a thing of beauty.

 

- Bottom line...The Sabres needed to to find a way to win, yet only could manage one goal.
