ish. Wing made a heads up play 

[Believer]

Gawd awful period… Wings had us on our heels… Played the period in our D-zone.

[Stoner]

And on cue Duff cackles.

Sense of urgency has only been there for 10 of the 40 minutes.

Well the sense of urgency has only been around for 10 of 40 games this season.  So it makes sense.

[Crusader1969]

Worst period they've played in a while.  Only 1 down.  Need to right the ship and start skating again

You gotta stop worrying about cackles.

Detroit look like battlebots Sabres look like battlenots.

This team found its lack of backbone and forecheck again.  Not changing this game.  Playoff conversation will be done by next week. Take that to the bank.  We had a few good games, reality just smacked Buffalo in the face.  4-1 Detroit. Calling it

[K-9]

Detroit killed that penalty on Rasmussen it’s been all Red Wings since. Lucky to only be down by one. 

[rickshaw]

Two preventable goals against. Very poor goals to give up. 

[Gatorman0519]

You can’t wait until the last 5-6 weeks of the season to start playing hockey. Now we are in a position to win 80% of the games.  That’s why I’m not remotely buying into the sudden playoff hype.

I'm counting cards, counting cards with Charlie Babbit.

No effort and losing every battle.  That does not help you win a game

[GoPuckYourself]

Please don't disappoint yet again Buffalo.

[sabrefanday1]

Gotta admit Krebs needs to go bye bye...that was a complete awful period. Funny how posters on here love to play down Sabres wins and say that the other team played poorly,.,,well the only reason Detroit is ahead is that the Sbres (other then the first ten minutes) have been comp[letely awful. Maybe it's the ice but puck is boucing and we cannot seem to make a pass...

Are you taking any prescription medication?

Defensible as nervous excitement in this one case 

[Believer]

Looked gassed all period… Wonder what time they got into their hotel yesterday? They practiced in KBC yesterday morning…

It’s not so much purely hype when we are merely 2 results today (2-1 Detroit, 2-1 Islanders) from being a solitary point back. But to your point, as great as the winning is, we haven’t given ourselves the breathing ground to let up down the stretch here, even a little. That’s the tough part
