wjag Posted February 1, 2010 Report Posted February 1, 2010 The dreaded Versus game.. Let's go Buffalo.. These next two are critically important. Win the next two and find yourself comfortably in the 3rd, maybe second slot. Lose the next two and Ottawa is within smelling range of the division. Ottawa took down Pit when they played there last. Time to show last years SC champion that there is a new sheriff in town.
TM8-PL16 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Posted February 1, 2010 Anyone else going to the game? I'll be there, as usual at the Pittsburgh games... I'll be at "The Souper Bowl" (bar about a block away) getting some food and some Blue before the game. Always civil there and always some Buffalo fans in there too... We need to punish the Penguins every shift and work hard for 60 minutes, we can't give them odd man rushes and be careless with the puck... they played an OT game yesterday with Detroit, we've had two days off... we need to get it done!!
Calvin Posted February 1, 2010 Report Posted February 1, 2010 We'll have to work long and hard for this one. Any word on who's in goal for both teams? Go Sabres! :pirate:

I'm going. Figures I'm fine all week and last night I get hit with a sudden wave of Nausea, chills and ache all over this morning. Do not know if I will have enough energy/time to make Souper bowl before hand though, might not be able to drink either but I still plan on going.
nfreeman Posted February 1, 2010 Report Posted February 1, 2010 We'll have to work long and hard for this one. Any word on who's in goal for both teams? I'll be shocked if Miller isn't playing.
Rico7 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Posted February 1, 2010 I'll be shocked if Miller isn't playing. Me too, but Lalime has played very well vs Pitt.
deluca67 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Posted February 1, 2010 Is it safe to say this is a must win? I would hate to see the Sabres go in to Wednesday's game against Ottawa with a chance for the Senators to close within 3 points. In a bit of good news the Sens play the Canucks, Flames, Capitals and Red Wings in four of the five games after the Sabres. In better news the Sabres have the Hurricanes twice, Boston and Columbus before ending the month against the Sharks.
Stoner Posted February 1, 2010 Report Posted February 1, 2010 :thumbdown: versus. Well yeah, but as I understand it (poorly, I admit), Comcast, owner of Versus) is also to blame for demanding an outrageous placement free from Versus.
Stoner Posted February 1, 2010 Report Posted February 1, 2010 And the problem for hockey fans is that, predictably, DirecTV doesn't seem to have been hurt in the least by dropping Versus. There's no pressure on them to cave.

There's no pressure on them to cave. But how else will people watch the Big Lebowski, which Vs. was airing this weekend?

There's no pressure on them to cave. Same as TW with the NFL Network. I have given up hope that I will ever see the NFLN on TW. :angry:
wonderbread Posted February 1, 2010 Report Posted February 1, 2010 Same as TW with the NFL Network. I have given up hope that I will ever see the NFLN on TW. :angry: NFLN sucks trust me. The netywork is complete crap. I'd much rather have Versus. I'd be sure to watch it more. Pa you are right Versus is charging HBO money to broadcast it. I see no end in sight. :wallbash:

Pa you are right Versus is charging HBO money to broadcast it. I see no end in sight. :wallbash: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I like the combine coverage, the draft coverage and most important the regular season games that they air exclusively on the network during the 2nd half of the season.

Perception is in the eye of the perciever! :unsure:
LabattBlue Posted February 1, 2010 Report Posted February 1, 2010 Me too, but Lalime has played very well vs Pitt. I'd go with Miller tonight and Wednesday, and let Lalime play one of the weekend games against Carolina or Columbus.

In better news the Sabres have the Hurricanes twice, Boston and Columbus before ending the month against the Sharks. I hate looking over my shoulder, but this seems to be a common theme lately. All the Sabres can do is play and win the games on their schedule. Ottawa isn't going undefeated for the rest of the season. I look at it this way, they've won 9 in a row and the Sabres are still in a very good position. When the Sens hit a bump in the road, things will go back to normal. JMO.
Two or less Posted February 1, 2010 Report Posted February 1, 2010 I'd go with Miller tonight and Wednesday, and let Lalime play one of the weekend games against Carolina or Columbus. Paul Hamilton says Miller will play tonight and against Ottawa, and Lalime will get one of the weekend games. Tyler Myers' 20th birthday is today. Maybe he can score on his birthday! lol
