haha i heard that too.

 

 

 

why no HD so far??

[Sterling Archer]

Get the cue cards.

why no HD so far??

they probably turned off the HD to prevent people from copying/selling the pregame ceremony, and forgot to turn it back on. Hopefully somebody will figure out what's going on and get it turned on before the 1st period is over.

Pretty good game so far, Sekera had one turn over and a couple of bad passes. He has to figure out what to do with the puck better

Goose hit reminds me of the hit on Pominville

Huh?

Power play sucks -- there's a shocker.

[SabreInFla]

Power play sucks -- there's a shocker.

I'd say every aspect of their play sucked that period.

"perilous flight?"

 

F Tynan

 

I thought he said "light."

 

He definitely said "to the night."

 

And "the rocket red's glare."

 

Ouch.

 

Scary, that's actually the highlight to this point.

[Stoner]

What Sabre spilled Miller -- and why didn't anyone on the Buffalo bench address it? Did Rivet not see it again?

[NowDoYouBelieve]

I know that our offense (at least as of last year) doesn't suck horribly in terms of total production...but doesn't it seem like scoring goals is just sorta...laborious, for us?

"Ronan is light's out, as usual..."

Honestly, it's been a while since anyone butchered the anthem that badly.

[bob_sauve28]

If the Sabres don't score any more goals this season I wonder if Ruff will keep his job? Probably

I've had it with the Tynan connection. I'm going to do some digging in my free time and figure out just WHY? this guy is here. There has to be some tit for tat going on.....but I can't figure it out. Quinn must use Tynan's condo in NYC and Dublin or something like that.

 

He probably would have nailed the theme to Hogan's Heroes.

[SabreInFla]

They look awful......

[sabresnutinphoenix]

It probably has been discussed before but it just seems that the Sabres have the same type of player at Forward...all juke and dance, can pass the puck, but very little in the shot category...

 

Also, we need a veteran on defense...way to young back there...

[darksabre]

Why can't Connolly and Vanek generate the scoring chances that Grier and Niedermayer, and Kaleta and McCormick, do?

[bob_sauve28]

On a positive note, Ryan Miller, we are not worthy!!!!

yes we are

[SabreInFla]

I bet this team goes 2-7-1 in the first 10 games.

[ROC Sabres]

I bet this team goes 2-7-1 in the first 10 games.

I'm sure you have the bills at 2-14 too don't ya?

[SabreInFla]

I'm sure you have the bills at 2-14 too don't ya?

1-15

[SabreInFla]

I certainly hope I'm wrong, but this team looks really bad.......

[Ghost of Dwight Drane]

On a positive note....Roby seems to have come back without some of the corporate shine that has waxed on the past 5 years and is working off instincts like back in the old days. I laughed out loud when he said Bobby Orr was choking someone to death.
