Eleven Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 I'll have what you had for dinner. No, don't. It wasn't very good.
Figster Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 Vanek shoots it waste high for a tip...and it hits the smurf in the face... and that's no way to treat the Gerber Baby
Marvelo Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 What about Cody Mc? haha If I was Ruff, I'd flat out resign tonight. He's not getting through to this bunch of sleepwalkers.
Stoner Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 Atrocious goal allowed by Miller. Good to see the passion from Connolly, who pole axed the ice after the two-man down goal -- after he blocked two shots and was obviously hurtin'. But the play that really stuck out was Myers skating back into his own zone, just before Atlanta went on the power play, getting caught easily from behind by Thorburn, who took the puck away. I don't even know how to evaluate that play. Myers couldn't have been gassed. The man just wasn't moving. Certainly he cares, but it's precisely the kind of play legion of Buffalo defensemen over the years would be booed off the ice for. It'll be interesting to see when this honeymoon ends. I think we're getting there.
SwampD Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 Why is everyone so angry? The effort has been there so far. Some good hits, nice chances. There were some horrible calls. That's the only reason it is 2-2. If Ruff is angry about anything it should be his own ineptitude in creating a power play worth a squirt of piss in last 5 years. If we had one, it would be 4-1 right now.
BuffaloFansR_Crazy Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 and that's no way to treat the Gerber Baby Someone needs to call CPS

I think we're getting there. Oh, it's over. Are you kidding? The honeymoon is over. The guy is not a seasoned vet, and he's going to be better than a lot of blueliners that we've seen recently (I still think Campbell had two good half-seasons, and that's it), but he needs some press box time as much, if not more, than Rivet does. (Rivet, it sends a message to the team, and gets an older, less effective, guy out of the way. It's not going to change RIvet, though; his shortcomings are because of age, not lack of skill or experience. Sitting Myers, it sends a message to HIM and lets him watch a bit.)
thesportsbuff Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 what a bonehead play by Kaleta at the end of the period... why take that penalty
Eleven Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 what a bonehead play by Kaleta at the end of the period... why take that penalty It's all he does anymore. He's no. 3 on my list, after Stafford and Connolly. And he's moving up to no. 2. He draws few penalties (and what's the point, anyway, with McCutcheon's PP?), and contributes little. Great that he's from Angola, though, huh?
Iron Crotch Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 These refs are really out of control tonight. It's like they work on a per-call commission.
SwampD Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 He and or McCutcheon had Vanek on the wall on that one power play. I don't mind Vanek there. I think he can do some damage there.
Iron Crotch Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 Stellar defense there, fellas. It looked like a high school hockey goal.
SwampD Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 I think you can blame all five Sabres on the ice and the one in the box for that goal.
BuffaloFansR_Crazy Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 Is it OK to talk sht about Miller yet?
Eleven Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 Stellar defense there, fellas. It looked like a high school hockey goal. Now Gaustad is on my list, too.
SwampD Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 There is no way that wasn't a dive. Wow!

He draws few penalties (and what's the point, anyway, with McCutcheon's PP?), and contributes little. Great that he's from Angola, though, huh? I think Kaleta has been pretty good this year, I don't know. He's drawn some penalties and the line of Kaleta-Goose-Gerbe has, if nothing else, been a good "energy" line. But that penalty was just stupid.
Eleven Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 I think you can blame all five Sabres on the ice and the one in the box for that goal. In MIller's defense--and he has not played well this year, so I'm not exalting him--that puck did bounce over his stick. That happens. Kaleta is useless. His antics are known to opponents and refs, and he is obsolete and fragile.
thesportsbuff Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 why did Myers wait for the PP to expire and then fire the puck down the ice?? luckily the goalie played it but what the hell?
Eleven Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 Hey--anyone know when Atlanta hired Vincent Price as a head coach?
Iron Crotch Posted October 30, 2010 Report Posted October 30, 2010 Timmy is actually shooting the puck tonight, which is nice to see. And, if I'm not mistaken he just took a run at someone there. What is up with him?
