Game discussion thread GDT:10-18-2014 Boston Bruins at Buffalo Sabres 7PM, MSG, WGR

[Wyldnwoody44]

I want to win tonight, because I'll be there and more importantly because it's freaking Boston..... But I'd settle for a 7-0 loss if that means lucic is at some plastic surgeons office in the morning getting his toucan Sam beak readjusted and missing some time..... I'm not over the miller hit and other antics from those cheap bastards...

Pretty good action on the board today for a nothing Saturday morning in a garbage season. This may be the first game in many years that I choose to just not watch. I just don't need the grief. Not only will I not have to see the Sabres get pwned and lose, but I also will not have to see dirty hits that should have been penalties characterized as "That's just big bad Bruins hockey." ###### it all.

 

Three good reasons.

Another is it avoids potential payback for Scott's hit on Eriksson.

Hell, I'm not over Jay Miller abusing Kevin Maguire 8+ times a season.

Really like no other fan base. I guess it's all we've got.

...if that means lucic is at some plastic surgeons office in the morning getting his toucan Sam beak readjusted and missing some time..... I'm not over the miller hit and other antics from those cheap bastards...

...and who on the Sabres is going to make this happen?

Gawd. It is all we got.

Shucks, I thought the "freedom is fake" line would save me. I prefer more subtle sarcasm, anyways. Makes things more interesting.

I love using sarcasm but so often people hear or read or think too fast and miss it. A lot of people qualify their statements by saying they are being sarcastic.

[Brawndo]

Svedberg in net for the Bruins tonight.

 

Let the parade of the Sabres versus backup goaltenders begin..

[Jeanbe]

Mommy I'm so scared. :( After watching the Sabres this seaon this will be a bloodbath. Poor Jonah. He is earning his paycheck and more.

[spndnchz]

Sorry, there is no fan handbook. I can only tell you how I feel. You be a fan your way and I'll be one my way. Ive got a lifetime of Boston beat downs that have ultimately amounted to exactly squat that I can look back on. Another one tonight moves my fan satisfaction needle nowhere.

 

I do want the Sabres to win a cup just as much or more than anyone here.

 

This did nothing for you?

 

[Robviously]

Probably a good thing there. No doubt the Bruins would love to welcome Samson to the big time with a boarding or two

Seriously, that's my biggest fear with him being in the NHL this year -- and the Bruins are exactly the team that would do it.

 

Girgensons and Risto both suffered concussions due to cheap shots as 18 year olds in their first pro seasons. We do NOT want that to happen with Reinhart.

[Kristian]

Listen up, folks: I don't care how pro-"tank" you are. If you're not rooting for the Sabres to beat the Bruins 19-0 with multiple fists connecting with the oversized noses of Lucic and Marchand, you are no Sabres fan.

 

Couldn't agree more, but with no John Scott, I fear this could get ugly quick, in more ways than one.

I don't think the Bruins behavior was ever altered by John Scott

I'm pretty impressed with Rangers fans at MSG still chanting after three whistles chirps, POTVIN SUCKS! It's a good laugh when you are at MSG. That is holding a grudge.

[JJFIVEOH]

I'm surprised Enroth is starting. Is Neuvirth banged up?

[DonInBuffalo]

A game or two in the press box prior to reaching his nine would be good for Reinhart

does tonight count against his nine?

[Cityo'Rasmii]

I say...tank schmank...

 

and I say, at the end of the day...Marchand is STILL A PUNK!

 

LET'S GO BUFFALO

[darksabre]

I wish we had Matt Hackett in the lineup. He'd totally Billy Smith someone.

[Hoss]

does tonight count against his nine?

 

No.

hah I actually wish we still had john scott :P

True but he could punch some noses in tonight

 

Good they are keeping reinhart away from this one.

I guess we'll find out tonight.

[CallawaySabres]

I hate the Bruins and Patriots more than anyone and there is nobody even close to 2nd place. Having said that, I really don't care if Sabres lose Tonight. Going to last last night's game sucked the hockey life out of me.

I didn't go to the game but kind of my feelings as well. Reached the point I dont really care either way. Going to be so long before we are relevant again that it just doesn't matter.

Paul Hamilton was mentioning that this is Nolan's Philosophy, Enroth is Number 1 Goalie and therefore should play back to back games.

 

 

Bruins Probable Line Up

 

 

Line Rushes: Lucic-Krejci-Gagne, Marchand-Bergeron-Smith, Kelly-Soderberg-Eriksson, Paille-Campbell-Fraser

 

D's: Chara-Hamilton, Seidenberg-McQuaid, Krug-Miller
