I love the Sabres, I really do. But watching these last few games from start to finish is going to be a challenge.

 

Thank goodness for Game Center; I can start watching late and skip the commercials and intermissionsand cut it down to a 70-minute investment of my time...

Deslauriers-Larsson-D'Agostini

Flynn-Ellis-Conacher

 

@BuffaloSabres

@BuffaloSabres

Konopka, Leino and Stafford also here but didn't skate in first line rushes. #Sabres

Much better lineup overall than last game as far as skaters goes. The first line is almost a decent second line.

 

That's if Marcus Foligno decides to give it some effort, Personally I think I'd like to see what Deslauriers could do with a little talent on his line.

Just heard Nolan say Weber is in so I'm guessing he'll be paired with McBain again with Scott scratched.

That's soooo much better :bag:

 

@BuffaloSabres

Ehrhoff and Weber will both be able to play tonight, Nolan says. #Sabres

 

 

@BillHoppeNHL

Ville Leino is a healthy scratch tonight. So are Zenon Konopka and John Scott. #Sabres

The Leino lottery keeps getting closer and closer to payout...

The Leino lottery keeps getting closer and closer to payout...

 

Obviously Nolan and Murray are in the lottery too... What possible justification could they have for making him a healthy scratch with 3 games to go... Unless of course he really will get bought out.
