No

[Radar]

No goal

[sodbuster]

Nope. Ugh.

[SABRES 0311]

That’s a goal. I’m calling it.

[sodbuster]

I think it went in, but there was no way in hell they could possibly overturn the call.

[triumph_communes]

Toronto’s defense is so bad lol

[darksabre]

That's *****. You can clearly see the puck well over the line bouncing around on his pants. They should get better screens. 

[DarthEbriate]

Good pressure; great saves.

[SABRES 0311]

Fine. An Eichel/Olofsson bullet will make it conclusive.

[DarthEbriate]

This one's gonna be close....   inconclusive. I'm way behind!

No goals to show for it but possibly the best period of Sabres hockey all season.

[SABRES 0311]

Can you imagine what a playoff series between these two teams would be like?

16 shots for Buffalo that period.

Well if I know this team, and I think I do, I have a bad feeling that Buffalo just spent all of their energy for the next two games in that period. 

To Come Away with zero goals is going to be a major problem from here on out in this game

[DarthEbriate]

Olofsson checking well on that final shift. Ties up Tavares at center ice, then tangles the defenseman behind the net. Good period. A few weak passes in the o-zone led to Leafs chances, but otherwise we kept them to the perimeter.

[Slack_in_MA]

Cmon boys... need this one.

That was so fun to watch as a Sabre fan. Toronto is dangerous, but their defense is horrendous. I haven't seen the Sabres given so much space for free, like, maybe ever. And the Sabres put it good use. 

Keep playing like this and they'll score 3-4. Krueger needs to work his motivational magic to make sure they aren't discouraged and just keep playing.

Disgusting to see the crowd. Big divisional game, Sabres season metaphorically on the line, long held rival, and a rare Sabres fan has to be surrounded by Leaf fans, who are downright unpleasant and hostile in these games. Pisses me off.

[SABRES 0311]

Marty and his red pen. 

[Neo]

Manon Rhéaume ...  I’m going to need a moment.   
 

[Pimlach]

Nice first period.  Almost scored a few times.  We need to play strong.  I hope RK keeps the shifts shorts and all of our forwards play hard.  
 

I really want to win the season series against these guys.  These games matter.  Probably more for next year than this  year.  
 

Playing for a lottery is not the answer.  Win now.

That puck was most likely over the line...……..oh well...…….

Keep pacing the game like this, never surrender, never give up on each and every shift to the very last second of the game and we've got the W

Go Sabres!

That puck WAS over the line.  Just means we have to win by 2.

Have never seen this building so full of invaders.  Pretty sure there are not even 1,000 Sabres fans (not counting ushers and concession workers) here tonight.  It's more lopsided than a WJC game.

 

[Taro T]

You've gotta keep 'em separated.Hey -ey- ey, COME OUT AND PLAY!

Guess we’re gonna need you to be louder than those other 18,000.

Rob Ray...Key to the game - outscore Toronto. Brilliant
