Thompson I wouldn't call sluggish, but holy moly KO and Sobotka on the same line is just...yech. I'm guessing the rationale is that Tage has a knack for stealing the puck off of sticks in the neutral zone and might be able to cash in on a feed from KO. And KO can score once in a while but is "good" on the boards. It's like a shut-down lite line. Ugh. Quote

PerreaultForever Posted February 25, 2019 Report Posted February 25, 2019 Gonna be tough. Always worried about our second line match up against them. We need a power play and really good goaltending tonight to have a chance at all. 1 Quote
Scottysabres Posted February 25, 2019 Report Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) So, I would just like to leave you all with this...…………….. I was traversing the intra-Leafs=webs today, several of their fan forums in fact, and the reaction of Buffalo getting Montour and their management not addressing their RD situation has an overwhelming majority of their fans/fanbase in complete and utter melt down mode. I kid you not, the responses are priceless, and I mean priceless. The icing on this cake would be for our boys to beat the snot out of'em on the scoreboard tonight and take the game. That would just be pure heaven. But as of now, I am a bad person, as I find myself filled with an overwhelming emotion of joy, glee, fulfillment, happiness as I watch them all completely lose their marbles. GO SABRES!!!!!!!!

But as of now, I am a bad person, as I find myself filled with an overwhelming emotion of joy, glee, fulfillment, happiness as I watch them all completely lose their marbles. I'm all for a healthy serving of Leafenfreude. I will add: I'm fairly convinced that all fan bases are more or less the same, in terms of the kinds of people that populate them. I also think that, the larger a team's fan base is (such as with the Leafs), the more obsessive know-it-alls, hobbyist GMs, kooks, wingnuts, and tinfoil hat wearers there are. Which is to say, I think there's a huge majority of Leaf fans who aren't bent out of shape over Muzzin and Montour (and a big chunk of that super majority who are only vaguely aware of this sort of thing). And then there's that small slice I mentioned above -- is it 10%? -- who are just frothing at the mouth over stuff like this. 1 Quote
LGR4GM Posted February 25, 2019 Report Posted February 25, 2019 I wanna win just to see the leafs lose their minds Quote
jsb Posted February 25, 2019 Report Posted February 25, 2019 I realize I'm late to the party but my hate for the Leafs is starting to really fester about now. LETS GO BUFFALO Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted February 25, 2019 Report Posted February 25, 2019 1) Even on rural Ohio, I can't escape Leafs fans. 2) Pretty sure this is a counterfeit jersey. 3) Real or not, who in the world wants a Zach Hyman jersey when you have so many good options? Quote

A Hyman jersey with the number 11, which makes it look even more like a cooch. He has to get beaten up regularly. Quote
CallawaySabres Posted February 25, 2019 Report Posted February 25, 2019 I hate that this game is so freaking huge.... Quote
Tondas Posted February 25, 2019 Report Posted February 25, 2019 This game rests on Hutton. If he plays like he did against the Caps, we're in good shape. If not, it could get rather ugly. Quote
inkman Posted February 25, 2019 Report Posted February 25, 2019 Let's ***** wreck these ass clowns!! Brandon Montour sounding less than enthusiastic. 1 Quote
Indabuff Posted February 25, 2019 Report Posted February 25, 2019 I am really looking forward to this game. However I've removed everything under fifty pounds from the immediate vicinity so I don't have something to throw at it. 1 Quote
