i have no idea where i'd look to find that stat, my memory serves me well enough.

Well, I was bored, so I glanced through the Sabres' schedule on ESPN from those two seasons.

 

In 05-06, Buffalo did not win a single game when down by 2 in the 3rd period.

In 06-07, Buffalo won 3 such games, 2 of which were 3 goal deficits and one comeback happened in the final 5 minutes.

 

For reference, here's the games:

http://espn.go.com/nhl/recap?gameId=261006002 (2 goal comeback in last 5 minutes)

http://espn.go.com/nhl/recap?gameId=261102001 (3 goal comeback)

http://espn.go.com/nhl/recap?gameId=270323002 (3 goal comeback)

Yes, yes I was bored.

Just went to the Barbill for some wings after the game and thought...there is something very flawed in the mentality of this team and even a win vs the Caps won't change that.

 

Mr. Pegula,

 

Feel free to rip at every seam if you like.

 

Two best things sports related for the next 6 months in Buffalo - Terry Pegula press conference on Tuesday and the revealing of the Bills new unis.

That was the single worst hockey game I have ever seen. Ever. I've seen peewee hockey players during intermissions try harder.

 

The only thing that makes a team play that indifferently is coaching. Fire Lindy Ruff.

Agree it was a horrible game. Disagree its time to fire anyone. Two games ago they were all heart. Now they can't get out of their own way. There are other issues afoot.

Inconsistent effort screams fire someones ass. I don't care how bad you suck as a player, you should at least be motivated to provide a solid effort. If Lindy can't motivate bad players then why let him unmotivate good ones? Screw it; I've had enough.

That's what a lot of Sabres fans are feeling right now. Kind of explains why the arena is so quiet these days. Why should the fans get excited if the ###### team can't even get it up for a couple home games against easy teams? ######! We should be in the 8th spot right now, banging down the door of the Rangers, Canadiens, and Caps.

Anyone else notice that Rayzor is sharing the area between the benches with Bernie Federko?

I had both feeds on DirecTV and St Louis does the same thing as the Sabres but I thought only the home team gets a guy between the benches.

I feel bad for anyone that actually paid money to go and witness that in person. That was a real sh*t stain of a game.

 

Disagree it's time to fire Ruff.

Easy teams? Why wouldn't Toronto or St. Louis think the same thing?

 

Then there's the media arrogance. Mike Harrington's game blog was titled "Sabres vs. Laffs." WGR yesterday morning had a segment where they argued St. Louis is the most irrelevant team for the Sabres in the league.

 

0-2.

I think they miss the steadying influence of Larry Quinn.

Its arrogant for our fans to think we're above this leafs team. Everyone says they are a joke but last I looked they were only 2 points below us. The sabres are in the same boat. And it seems to be taking on water.

You should look more often; they're 4 below. Not that 2 more points makes your argument any less valid. ;)

 

Shouldn't you be saying the Leafs are six back?

That game was awesome! It had hitting (I bashed my head against the wall) It had scoring (i scored because my gf felt sad for me) and it had great play from our hometeam the awesome sabres! (they played with themselves instead of playing hockey). :oops: :death: :thumbdown:

Thats a joke right? Or do you mean the complacent :censored: boringness of Larry Quinn?

 

Let's just say that I consider Quinn to be the Tim Connelly of NHL team presidents. He's THAT good.
