Second Line Center Posted December 14 Report Posted December 14 Had opportunity to go to the game tonight. Wasn’t worth the effort. And I ain’t the only one. This franchise is in massive trouble. Quote

I'd like any optimistic opinion because I am fully checked out. Sorry man, I am with the others. I feel broken. I will continue to "follow" the team - I can't help it ... but if other opportunities present themselves to do things that are not as likely to end in disappointment, I will take them. 1 1 Quote

I'd like any optimistic opinion because I am fully checked out. Nope. I’m in the they are just going to keep losing until something gives crowd. I can’t even be bothered watching the games anymore. I could care less about the draft because whoever they pick will be under developed by this organization. The only thing that could get me interested again would be new ownership. Until then any changes are just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. So sad to see what this franchise has become. Quote

Slack_in_MA Posted December 15 Report Posted December 15 Watching a Brit Floyd concert on PBS with the game on my phone in the background. Losing interest in a hurry. Again. Quote
bob_sauve28 Posted December 15 Author Report Posted December 15 A lead! We are winning! I think that's a good thing, right? Quote

K012010 Posted December 15 Report Posted December 15 Damn. Early first goal is a guaranteed L for us. They forget that they aren’t supposed to then take the rest of the game off. Have a good night everyone. Quote

The Blue ones they had a decade-or-so ago (maybe longer) were some of my favorites in the league. Not as much of a fan of their current ones. 8 minutes ago, mjd1001 said: Its better than not scoring first. But on the year, the Sabres have a losing record when scoring first. 7 wins 10 losses. To add to that, Washington doesn't really get upset by trailing. They have the best record in the league with the opposition scores first. They are 10-4 in games where they go down 1-0. 1 Quote
K012010 Posted December 15 Report Posted December 15 Not even getting a clear shot on a two on one that open is just classic Sabres mediocrity. Quote

mjd1001 Posted December 15 Report Posted December 15 Ice time most of the way through the first is VERY even, Lindy is just rolling 4 lines, no one is getting extra or long shifts among forwards so far. Quote
SwampD Posted December 15 Report Posted December 15 Power looks bad. That sucks. Just now, mjd1001 said: Ice time most of the way through the first is VERY even, Lindy is just rolling 4 lines, no one is getting extra or long shifts among forwards so far. I think that’s because our lower lines are getting hemmed in by Washington’s higher lines and Lindy hasn’t been able to get them on the ice. Quote
mjd1001 Posted December 15 Report Posted December 15 Rob Ray is really pushing the "Sabes" thing instead of "Sabres" more than I remember. I know he did it in the past, but out of every commercial break he is saying it. Not a big deal, but I'm not a huge fan of the "Sabes" nickname. That was either just lazy play or slow skating by Power and Samuelsson as a combo there. They lose the puck, the Caps player outskates them, and they take a penalty on a play that should have never gotten to that point. Quote
ska-T Palmtown Posted December 15 Report Posted December 15 So the offense guy can hold the D-man's stick? BS. 1 Quote
SwampD Posted December 15 Report Posted December 15 ***** penalty. The Cap was holding Owen’s stick big time. Quote
