DFITZ1 Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 How fitting, a defenseman scores our only goal in garbage time. Disgusting.
Stoner Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 How fitting, a defenseman scores our only goal in garbage time. Disgusting. "The Sabres made it interesting late." --Kevin Er, BatBoy. Wish I could remember who to credit for that one. HIlarious.
Weave Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 Jack I admire your optimism but this team has all the look of the last 2 teams that missed the playoffs. They've looked that way since the Olympics last year.
notwoz Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 I think the Savres have shown me what they've got for this season. And it ain't enough.
R_Dudley Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 Well now thats what a small, fast, well coached, playing a system team with solid goal tending, veteran leadership, that bury's their chances looks like. Montreal is really playing well now. Bflo on the other hand is showing they can only compete with middle road teams. Well Darcy, how do you like them now? a month from now ? two months from now ? I hope I can just at least try and enjoy them this season as a entertaining hockey team.

BuffalOhio Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 Who is gone next year - Connolly, Stafford, Rivet...at least the team will look different next year. Sad thing is, none of those guys played tonight, so we can't blame them....
CallawaySabres Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 Sad thing is, none of those guys played tonight, so we can't blame them.... Yes, but their replacements plus Kassian should be the biggest makeover this team has seen in a decade....
BuffalOhio Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 Yes, but their replacements plus Kassian should be the biggest makeover this team has seen in a decade.... True dat!
nfreeman Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 lmfao why does it seem like I've read this same post 15 times??? oh that's right, because someone posts the same exact thing after every loss LOL no offense bro i'm not saying it's always you, ###### is just too funny really. OMG! When you are done l'ing your fao, perhaps you can tell us why it's funny. Is it so silly/wrong/out to lunch to be down on this team or to think that they probably aren't going to make the playoffs? The season is now 31% over. The Sabres have 9 wins and 16 losses. 5 out of their top 6 forwards have been downright terrible. Their highest-paid player has been invisible for 20 out of the 25 games, loafed his way through a big divisional game tonight and made a terrible turnover that gave the Habs a 2-0 lead. Their 2nd-highest-paid skater has been even worse. Their front office is paralyzed. Their coach is playing out the last year of his contract. What exactly have you seen out of this team that makes you think they will win at a 70% or so clip in the last 69% of the season? LOL!

TheChimp Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 Hey Darcy, pass the brie. Chet and Muffy won't share.
Marvelo Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 It's a timid front office who's afraid of change...and a timid team too. If you don't have enough talent, you have to try harder. And this team can't or won't penetrate.

It had a nice beat and I can dance to it.

LOL! relax, i'm not arguing the premise of the post. you guys can be down on the team all you want -- as annoying as it is to me, that's your choice. it's just funny because following every Sabres' loss, someone posts pretty much the exact same thing as if it is some groundbreaking new idea that nobody has ever come up with before. plus we were celebrating everyones favorite holiday so i found it a little more amusing than usual. now i'm hungover and am in no mood to argue, so good day to you all
MattPie Posted November 29, 2010 Report Posted November 29, 2010 The season is now 31% over. The Sabres have 9 wins and 16 losses. 13 losses. The numbers are bad enough that you don't have to stretch the truth. And before you say, 'But the OTL/SO losses are losses!', they're just as close to a win as a loss (in terms of points). If you like, 10.5 wins and 14.5 losses. :)
nfreeman Posted November 29, 2010 Report Posted November 29, 2010 13 losses. The numbers are bad enough that you don't have to stretch the truth. And before you say, 'But the OTL/SO losses are losses!', they're just as close to a win as a loss (in terms of points). If you like, 10.5 wins and 14.5 losses. :) Not quite as close, because the tie-breakers favor regulation win points over accumulated OTL/SOL points -- and if the Sabres manage to get their act together and get into the playoff race, it's quite likely that the tie-breakers will play a role. Also, to be sure, the Sabres have finished a game as losers 16 times. But your point is fair nevertheless.
