OverPowerYou Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 I just had a dream that Buffalo won the Stanley Cup and they played Nashville in the finals. So we're obviously going to beat the Flyers in this series. The thing that didn't make sense was that Leopold was the one who hoisted the cup, and he's not even an assistant or captain. Btw this could be the last home game of the season (I hope not) Let's go Buffalo!
carpandean Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 If the Sabres play smart for 60 minutes, I have a good feeling. If they continue to have mental lapses, then the Flyers will just sit back and wait to take advantage.
nfreeman Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 Dear Hockey Gods: Your humble servants in Western New York request your help in this, their hour of need. Please help our guys dig deep and find the courage and the grace under pressure to make the right decisions. Please lend Rico's spirit and game to our forwards. Please give the teammates of the short one with the lion's heart the strength to follow his example. We are battered and broken but we can rise again. Go Sabres.

I'm still pissed that they did nothing about our blue line getting decimated in the 05-06 playoffs. :rolleyes:

While I like having a second, local team to root for (Nashville) it sucks when the Sabres and Preds play of the same night...I have to miss tonight's Sabres games to attend the Preds-Ducks game. Preds would have played last night but the game was pushed back to Wednesday due to a Lady Gaga concert... urgh... BTW - just saw Todd Marchant in Starbucks this AM

Claude_Verret Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 Sabres in 6. We will we celebrating on Sunday at around 6 p.m. The downfall of the Flyers begins tonight. (no, I'm not drinking this morning -- just have a feeling) I tell you what I have a similar calm feeling about this series. I'm not sure if it's just indifference to the outcome given that this team is essentially playing with house money or if it's total confidence that the Sabres will prevail in this series. I do know that playoff hockey is a blast. :thumbsup:

R_Dudley Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 Win or lose, this is so much more fun than not making the playoffs. Yes +1 :thumbsup: and on top of that several of the new players need the experience to build for the future. Alas I will be on the road for tonights game and through Sunday late. I will not get to see any of the next 3 first hand but I will follow here on the board and or NHL on the fly if/when I can. I can tell and I am happy to say already this is not the same playoff team as last year and I am enjoying it more than last year as well. Keep it going and get it done, Let's go Buff'a'lo.
nobody Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 Sabres, in their history, have never won a playoff series that they trailed 2-1. A stat I never really knew, or didn't recall, until GR just mentioned it.
samothyev Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 Sabres, in their history, have never won a playoff series that they trailed 2-1. A stat I never really knew, or didn't recall, until GR just mentioned it. Meh! Stats!!! Between these 2 teams in all their playoff series the team who won game 1 won the series. I'll say it again; Meh! Stats!!!
nobody Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 Meh! Stats!!! Between these 2 teams in all their playoff series the team who won game 1 won the series. I'll say it again; Meh! Stats!!! I like when the Sabres make history against the Flyers. So now would be a great time to stop that stat.
OverPowerYou Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 Meh! Stats!!! Between these 2 teams in all their playoff series the team who won game 1 won the series. I'll say it again; Meh! Stats!!! And one of those trends will be broken this series.
UncleWally Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 I'd be okay with that since I have Predators playoff tickets!

BTW - just saw Todd Marchant in Starbucks this AM That's admirable and what not, but I'd never fall into that trap, even though I've lived in the Philadelphia area all of my life. :)
... Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 All I know is that the Sabres have shown us this season that it's not wise to count them down and out, especially when they have time. 2-1 in a best of 7 gives the Sabres time. They're not the mentally and emotionally fragile team from last year, and they clearly have more guts and finish than last year's team. Here's to Lindy and the team, GOOD LUCK! We're all counting on you! :beer:

Assquatch Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 According to whowins.com teams in Buffalo's spot (down 2-1 as the lower seed) have won game 4 56.1% of the time in the first round, or 52.2% of the time in this spot regardless of the round.
LGR4GM Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 I wonder if lindi will super juggle the lines. It needs to be done. I am so tired of watching pommers an tc pass the puck back an forth all pp long. Gaustad should be parked in the front of the net not vanek, idk why ruff doesnt let van sit on the point and crank in shots but hey I dont get paid millions of dollars to coach now do i....
cdexchange Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 My buddy just called and I got a ticket tonight for only $40. First row sec.314 :thumbsup: GO SABRES!!
Samson's Flow Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 Going to this one too, this time section 308 row 2. Hoping to see a little tighter game from the D and forwards as a whole. The big key will be the PP where we had all the opportunities in the world on monday and couldn't bury anything. That was a pretty big factor in our late season success so that needs to get going if we have any chance at success. Lets go Buffalo! :w00t:
spndnchz Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 Wow. Sabres facebook blowing up. Stay classy Philly.
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 Wow. Sabres facebook blowing up. Stay classy Philly. Between the party in the plaza, and reading that page.....I think I'm going to start following polo.
Kristian Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 Did they not deliver unto us Nathan Paetsch? Hallelujah! Wrong Nathan, the right one was in the mail.
ROC Sabres Posted April 20, 2011 Report Posted April 20, 2011 Wrong Nathan, the right one was in the mail. USPS??? If he fits, he ships.
