EdwardSauve Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 Bank of lights blew out behind Brodeur 44 seconds after 3rd goal. Marty has been nicked 3 times on just 7 SOGs And they suspended or postponed the game? Is that legal? The lights are on there now even though they have called the game.
wjag Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 Good win...but we gave up 50 shots?! Maybe DeLuca is right when he says that the only difference between this year and the last two is Miller. Toronto fired 50 shots on goal tonight and I'm sure some statistician knows how many others were started at the net and missed. Face it, they lead the league in BAD shots on goal. Tampa put three past BRODEUR on just seven shots. It's not how many, it's quality.
SDS Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 These are the games that make me shake my head and wonder how deep this team will go. We won but ONLY because of Miller in the third. I swear we look like we are skating with lead weights on our feet. Toronto made it look like A 10-minute power play at even strength. We pull this crap in the playoffs and we are one-and-done. PTR Sorry, you don't get to say that. You declared us out of the playoffs because we only got one point in game 1 of the season... in case you forgot.
The_Swannie_House Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 Maybe DeLuca is right when he says that the only difference between this year and the last two is Miller. Those three words should never be used together
PromoTheRobot Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 Sorry, you don't get to say that. You declared us out of the playoffs because we only got one point in game 1 of the season... in case you forgot. Busted! PTR

The_Swannie_House Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 Quit yer bitching. Back to TBD for that. Hunting down first in the east. Try to enjoy it while it lasts man. PTR actually hates everything that is not UB
PromoTheRobot Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 PTR actually hates everything that is not UB Not true. I just spend too much time on Two Bills Drive. I didn't realize SabreSpace has a "happy thoughts only" policy. PTR
Knightrider Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 You could really tell how much the Leafs wanted this one. 50 shots, wow! Except for that atrocious PK, they win. I know at this point it is redundant, but Myers is a beast. When he started skating toward the net on that first PP, even I knew exactly what was going to happen.
wjag Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 Not true. I just spend too much time on Two Bills Drive. I didn't realize SabreSpace has a "happy thoughts only" policy. PTR :D :worthy: :thumbsup: B-) ;) :) :w00t: :beer:

Speaking of UB this is not very different than UBfan.com. No complaining allowed, especially after a win. They don't allow any bitching about the basketball coach. PTR

PTR Yeah, I'm sure there won't be any difference between a dog day game against Toronto and a post season game. Why can't people actually enjoy ANYTHING?

The_Swannie_House Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 I didn't realize SabreSpace has a "happy thoughts only" policy. PTR no....I just don't tolerate nitpicking when you are in 1st place by 9 points

We pull this crap in the playoffs and we are one-and-done. PTR Miller gets to play in the playoffs too, right? That's what they pay him for ... he's a member of the team. Sorry, but this stuff drives me crazy ... when Ovechkin has a 3 goals and an assist and the Caps win 5-4, do people say "geez, the Caps have to help OV, they only win because of him." No, they say how no one wants to play them in the playoffs because he can win games himself. So can Miller. Why should they apologize? They sat on a 3-goal lead against a desperate team and almost paid for it, but I didn't even think it was in Miller's top 5 as far as games stolen this season.
wjag Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 Just Cause: 1. Who's hotter Myers or Connolly? 2. Miller's going to have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder after that shelling.. 3. When was the last time this team had 3 PP goals in one game? 4. No + players on the ice tonight. Butler and Rivet continue adding - to their totals. Butler -1, Rivet -2 5. Myers 24 minutes TOI. 6. Vanek and Kennedy 12:30 TOI 7. Now someone argue with me that the Sabres don't play Alamo mode with a lead after 2. 8. 18-0-0 with a lead after 2. 9. One point behind NJ for the lead; #1 slot in the East. 10. 16-5-4 at home. Thank god they fixed their play at home this year.
JujuFish Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 The Tin Man extends his lead to 4 points over Roy. I see he's also leading forwards on the team in +/- rating after Wednesday's game.
LabattBlue Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 Game thoughts... Good - Just got home from the game and I am now 6-0 on the season - Miller and Myers...OUTSTANDING!!! Bad - 50 shots against one of the worst teams in the league at home. Lindy needs to get this fixed. It is a problem. - I like Lydman, but he was a trainwreck tonight. - Too much 4th line tonight. 6 or 7 minutes are plenty for them.
cdexchange Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 Miller's postgame comments were priceless :lol:
NowDoYouBelieve Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 This game can be summed up quickly. Myers and Miller, with a pinch of Connolly thrown in. Add a nice shot from Kennedy and a nice pass from Vanek, and you have a 3-2 victory. Other than that, not a game to be particularly proud about. Still, 2 points is 2 points. Not every win is going to be textbook. We've won 6 in a row which is incredible, and we haven't had a zero point contest since December 23rd against Washington. In the big picture, everything is coming up roses. Now let's lay the lumber on Colorado tomorrow!
Guest Sloth Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 Miller's postgame comments were priceless :lol: You can tell Miller knows he is one of the best goalies in the world. Miller can back his talk. It's Miller time baby! Seriously, I'm grabbing a Miller lite right now! Go Sabres!!!! :beer:
Calvin Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 You can tell Miller knows he is one of the best goalies in the world. Miller can back his talk. It's Miller time baby! Seriously, I'm grabbing a Miller lite right now! Go Sabres!!!! :beer: I hear you.. +1, I'll stick with my Miller Genuine Draft though :beer:
... Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 Just Cause: 1. Who's hotter Myers or Connolly? 7. Now someone argue with me that the Sabres don't play Alamo mode with a lead after 2. 10. 16-5-4 at home. Thank god they fixed their play at home this year. 1. Miller - I think he backed up his own words after some shaky games. Remember, Miller's worst = an average goalie's best. 7. I won't argue that point at all. But I think it's a crappy strategy. 10. Until I go to my next game. :wallbash: :censored:
carpandean Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 How often do you see a goaltender with a 2.00 GAA in a game and a 0.960 S%?
carpandean Posted January 9, 2010 Report Posted January 9, 2010 1. Who's hotter Myers or Connolly? Before or after the new scar on Tim's cheek? Though, chicks dig scars, so ... Chz? Bad - Too much 4th line tonight. 6 or 7 minutes are plenty for them. First night of back-to-backs. Lindy tries to spread the ice time in those we he can.
