... Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 Some posts and a missing net thanks to Kaleta. The Sabres could have easily had a few more goals if the wind was blowing a different direction today.
wjag Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 So this is how we have to win, shut outs by Miller? We are not going to win this series if we can't score. Each game is different. You never know where momentum comes from.
TheMatrix31 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 Gotta get a few more goals. I don't know if I can live through another 1-0 victory. Heart palpatations and whatnot.
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 still got to get shots up high on boucher
EZBills7 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 So I need to stay out of sabrespace during th game. Did it this game and game 1. No posts from me on friday night. Thoughts: Miller: GODLIKE. Ennis: Best game I've seen him play in the post season Defense: responsible as all hell tonight. Forwards: responsible as all hell on the back check tonight. Gerbe: Wish he could have fought Timonen Stafford: Wish he would have beat the living piss out of hartnell when he wanted to fight Gerbe. Myers: MAKIN IT LOOK MEAN!!! Love the edge he's playing with. :worthy: :worthy: :clapping: :clapping: Agree, agree, agree. Miller is an elite goalie, and an elite player in the league. Let's not get crazy when he has an off night or when his backup plays well. He's the man. Period. Loved the fight shown tonight by several guys especially Gerbe, Myers, Kaleta and Goose. Also, is it me or did Lindy really mix up some of the forward lines tonight? Seemed to get some chances going. The Waterboy Boucher is giving up more scoring chances than a college sorority with those rebounds, and if it weren't for a few goalposts and bad bounces, this one would have been over after two periods. Keep the same game plan and sooner or later he's going to get lit up and we'll get a look at Flyers goalie number three out there.
DumbPuck Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 A win is a win. Can't turn that down. As somebody else mentioned before though, I was not a big fan of the line combinations.
deluca67 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 Definitely one the more exciting 1-0 games you will see. Nice to the Sabres, led by Myers, step it up physically. Miller played really well after a shaky start. Myers and Butler with two huge defensive plays. The five minute power play was a disappointment and the boos at the end of it were a bit shocking. Two more defensive efforts like tonight and the conversation turns to round two opponents.
KD in CT Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 Some posts and a missing net thanks to Kaleta. That's the one that drove me crazy. Vanek was all alone there. Ennis was close too; gotta give the goaltender credit on that one.
Wayne VanDorp Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 God I wish ennis woulda buried that...unreal

There were some absolutely huge rebounds off Boucher tonight and I don't recall seeing a Sabre get to a single one of them.
Team Strike Force Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 There has to be a game where Boucher melts down. Right?

Robviously Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 Prediction: Derek Roy returns right after Philly wins another game. I wouldn't mind him returning now though. The PP is bad and we're still struggling on offense.
Robviously Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 still a few too many poor clearings and zone play but good to see Myers getting nasty Just a reminder that Myers is still the youngest defenseman on the team. Imagine what he'll be like in 2 years. Or 5. :ph34r:

Robviously Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 That's the one that drove me crazy. Vanek was all alone there. Ennis was close too; gotta give the goaltender credit on that one. Vanek was about to put that one home. I was furious with Kaleta because I thought he was trying to draw a penalty but the replay showed that he just lost his skate there. Can't be as mad about that even though I think it cost us a goal.

bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 wow, its Miller Time M&M time Miller and Myers :clapping: :clapping:
LGR4GM Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 if someone can post ryan millers post game interview because it was awesome!
Tyrannustyrannus Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 Holy Crap, Miller has a playoff 'stache and looks ridiculous
87168 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 I'm finally home and able to watch the whole game, and what do I do? I sleep through the entire 2nd and 3rd period. UGH! :wallbash: :wallbash: :wallbash: :wallbash:
Assquatch Posted April 21, 2011 Report Posted April 21, 2011 Labialips doesn't think the elbow showed any intent. Surprise, surprise.
