DR HOLLIDAY Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Anderson just made a great save......50 seconds left, timeout montreal.......faceoff in Ottawa's end.
X. Benedict Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Beautiful goal by Ottawa with 3 minutes to go IN REGULATION! Now 30 sec to go... quite a week of hockey here, isn't it? :thumbsup:
Derrico Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Well, if something happens and the Sabres happen to lose tomorrow and the Canes win then atleast Saturday has changed. Buffalo would have to not get a single point and Carolina AND the Rangers would have to win for Buffalo to miss. That's huge becasue the Rags play the Devils which is not an easy game. Afternoon affair. 1235 I believe.
nfreeman Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 quite a week of hockey here, isn't it? :thumbsup: Indeed. Kinda hoping next week and the following week are even better...
deluca67 Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Eric Boulton scores!!!!!! 3-0 Les Thrashiers Why is that a good thing? Why would Sabre fans want Cam Ward and the Canes to make the playoffs? I get it helps the Sabres seeding, if you are thing long term in the playoffs don't you want Montreal and the Rangers in and Carolina out.
Derrico Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 One win and we'll end no worse than 7th place and likely not have to deal with the caps in Round 1.

Fans cheering that win (me included) are worried about the Sabres picking up a point in the final two games....

If it were to end up being the Sabres and Carolina in, then the earliest we would see them would be the ECF. Opportunity for revenge?

Very simple concept ... you want everyone to lose except the teams that are already eliminated ... I'm tired of everyone being worried about the Canes ... I got the target on everyone above us ... not below us ...
JujuFish Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Stupid Sens letting Montreal tie it up in the waning seconds. Now Montreal has to lose their last game and Buffalo has to get at least a point tomorrow against Philly for Buffalo to have the possibility of taking the 6th seed Saturday.
deluca67 Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 If it were to end up being the Sabres and Carolina in, then the earliest we would see them would be the ECF. Opportunity for revenge? Revenge or a repeat of history? The Canes have a group of guys with Cup Rings and the Sabres best player are their younger players. Not a good match-up if it happens.
wjag Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 If it were to end up being the Sabres and Carolina in, then the earliest we would see them would be the ECF. Opportunity for revenge? Edit: oops, unless we pass Montreal and all three teams win the first round. It's that and I think the Canes would give Washington fits. I'd expect Washington to prevail. But I could see Carolina taking them to six or seven games. If they knock off the Washington, they probably get the Bruins next.
carpandean Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 It's ... You can delete that "Edit:" from my post. It was there for 2 seconds before I realized that we would play Montreal in the second round in that case.

So--I guess you're now considering a lengthy playoff run, eh? There we go.
bunomatic Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 this was worth two games Eberle is caught leaning and it is worth four? Wow. Things have obviously changed since the pommer hit. The league wants to address headshots now (mostly to protect their a$$es from lawsuits and placate their advertisers but thats besides the point). Whats wrong with the league finally taking headshots seriously and drawing a line in the ice? All I can add to this is players like Kaleta better watch out. They could very well become endangered.
wjag Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 So--I guess you're now considering a lengthy playoff run, eh? There we go. Got him. The hook has been set..
deluca67 Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 So--I guess you're now considering a lengthy playoff run, eh? There we go. I'm in the yard right now with my bottle trying to catch lightning. A playoff run is always a possibility (not likely but still possible) and worth discussing. During the playoffs, the discussion needs to be how can the Sabres get from point A to point C as in Cup. To stay on topic, the road to point C is much harder with Carolina in the mix.
JujuFish Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 Revenge or a repeat of history? The Canes have a group of guys with Cup Rings and the Sabres best player are their younger players. Not a good match-up if it happens. I'd love a chance at revenge, just like I want the Sabres to exact revenge on the 3rd seeded, division winning, (soon to be) Vezina winning Bruins in the first round just like they beat our 3rd seeded, division winning, Vezina winning Sabres in the first round last year. Unfortunately, Montreal getting a point tonight made that much less likely.
