TrueBlueGED Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 They've had plenty of opportunities before this I give him, Kasdorf, and Rodrigues opportunities to play. Tonight was the wrong night to do it Alright, I'm adding "fan appreciation night" to "the All-Star Game" and "....I honestly can't remember, but there was a third thing" on the list of things you care about far more than I do :p :lol: Jesus. I just went to Weather.com. They are saying tomorrow night the low will be 19 degrees. I do get that vibe watching these games in Buffalo. It's "something to do" for a sizable contingent of the crowd, or so it seems. What font are they using? 72? 96 bold in red? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jsixspd Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 Well, looks like the season is ending not with a bang, but a whimper. Sad showing for the final home game for the Buffalo fans, especially against the team with the 3rd worst overall record in the NHL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PASabreFan Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 Alright, I'm adding "fan appreciation night" to "the All-Star Game" and "....I honestly can't remember, but there was a third thing" on the list of things you care about far more than I do :P :lol: It fits into a theme though, as nicely outlined in John Vogl's piece in the News on Sunday. The fans don't feel appreciated. Think Russ Brandon gives two shits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fans don't feel appreciated. Think Russ Brandon gives two shits? If such a feeling is actually widespread and growing, then yea. Even if you want to be super-cynical as to the reason, significant fan alienation has business implications. Edit: I'm also pretty sure the lineup decisions were Murray and Bylsma. Surely you wouldn't want a businessman coming down to tell the hockey department what to do in game 81, right?

Kruppstahl Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 (stands on chair) FOILED, I TELL YA! Now that I think about it, Moulson has been "foiled" a lot this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlueGED Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 Risto's head is now at some beach somewhere. You've seen his skin, right? I'm not sure he knows what sunlight is, let alone a beach. small type and gray actually. Disappointing. Seriously, weather.com is terrible.

Kruppstahl Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 Hey, here is to hoping things are a lot more exciting in Sabre Land this time next year. I think I have forgotten what a suspenseful, meaningful, late season Sabres game looks like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JujuFish Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 Johnson is pushing 930 since October. He was coming off an injury too. If you're going to cut out his worst month (October), then it's only fair to cut out his best month (November). He's .920 since December 1st, good for 21st in the NHL (minimum 10 games).

TrueBlueGED Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 So somebody refresh my senile memory. If we lose tomorrow we finish where? 7th if Arizona wins, 8th if they lose (regulation or OT). If we win and Montreal losses, we draft 9th. So, locked into 7-9. The Tyler Ennis milk commercial! I think that's a fitting way to turn off the TV after that game :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 Risto on the 2nd pair?Not long term haha, and not if his partner is equal in ability or better (cough cough Fowlllllllerrrrrrr) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
