Realist Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Thought I heard a "Lets Go Buffalo" chant there at the beginning of that power play.
wjag Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Buffalo's Second PP. First one was awful,, second one was worse.. No shots on goal... Buffalo: NJ:
wjag Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Buffalo scores on a break Briere's shot finsihed by Hecht Buffalo: :ph34r: NJ:
Mr.Christopher Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Good. We are getting outplayed, this goal is a big help. These VS guys are horrible, they were blasting Buffalo and the score was still 0-0.
MBD Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Langenbrunner, what a doof! "Hey, I got a stick to my face (shoulder actually) after I pulled Briere down!"
Realist Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Good. We are getting outplayed, this goal is a big help. These VS guys are horrible, they were blasting Buffalo and the score was still 0-0. They're blasting Buffalo because NJ is totally outplaying us at our own game.
Swedesessed Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Thought I heard a "Lets Go Buffalo" chant there at the beginning of that power play. Either that or you heard a car pull into the parking lot outside the arena.
Mr.Christopher Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 They're blasting Buffalo because NJ is totally outplaying us at our own game. I know. But, the score is still 0-0, they sounded like Buffalo was losing badly.
HopsGuy Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 What kinda of BS no-call was that? I guess I'll feign a fall and slide into the goaltender. Great rush on the goal and a superb 1st minute of that PP.
wjag Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Miller has been outstanding. He has been betaen on one shot only and that one hit the crossboard
MBD Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Miller has been outstanding. He has been betaen on one shot only and that one hit the crossboard It looked like to me that he got a piece of it.
wjag Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 They actually played D that period. Interesting move to put Vanek on the 4th line. Heck, Mair might be able to score with him there.
HopsGuy Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 It looked like to me that he got a piece of it. Spoken like a goaltender - The posts/crossbar are part of the equipment. :)
MBD Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Can anyone explain that penalty on Miller? call or not?
X. Benedict Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 It looked to me like Lindy held the Briere line back the first period. It gave them a second gear in the 2nd. I'll take 1-0.
HopsGuy Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Heck, Mair might be able to score with him there. Mair needs a wide open net and two shots. And then, maybe. :D
MBD Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Spoken like a goaltender - The posts/crossbar are part of the equipment. :) I'm not a goaltender, but it's definitely true. But I meant that I thought Miller got his stick on it and deflected it up into the additional piece of goalie equipment.
Mr.Christopher Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 They actually played D that period. Interesting move to put Vanek on the 4th line. Heck, Mair might be able to score with him there. That might be what they are trying to do. Mair and Gaustad have been working hard all night and have been close to scoring. They might of put Vanek on to help score.
SCSabresFan! Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Did anyone else know the game was on VERSUS tonight? I happened to stumble on their website and catch the schedule. I'm a moron. But at least I can watch the third period with my 2 year old. :)
wjag Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 On the Miller penalty. He was outside the trapezoid by a foot or two. He brought the puck into the trapezoid on his backhand and move toward the back of the net. He then changed to his forehand and shot it out the other side. He was pretty adamant that he didn't do anything worng. Ruff looked calm. Never has fully understood the ruling myself.
HopsGuy Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Can anyone explain that penalty on Miller? call or not? Seemed like a good call, technically. He played the puck below the goal line outside the trapezoid. Ticky-tack? Sure. This game has been called a bit differently than the other 40 or so games I've watched this year. They seem to be letting a few hooks/clutches go, but that one was something I thought would be ignored. I predict a parade to the penalty box in the 3rd. The Devils will be tired from playing this up-and-down stuff and will resort to clutching a bit more. Of course, I could be wrong.
Stoner Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Can anyone explain that penalty on Miller? call or not? Tricky call. He definitely slid the puck through a little corner of illegal ice, but whether he played it in there is another thing. Anyone slow it down on replay? Briere 5-1 on faceoffs in the second. Also interesting to note that Sekera played over five minutes in the first, but only a minute or so in the second. Power plays affected his time, I suppose, but still... we don't seem to have any defensive depth Ruff can trust. It's disconcerting. All in all, a much better period for the Sabres. As is their tendency, they waited a little while to find their legs. I like Emerick, but he's getting on my nerves tonight. You can tell from his voice he's a Devils guy. And why make everything so clever -- "two seconds more than nine and three quarter minutes left"?! Anything wrong with saying 9:47? And he said something in the first I couldn't repeat to save my life, but it was something was doubled while another thing was quintupled. I felt like I was taking the math part of the SAT again. This time I wanted the trains to collide, killing all on board, including Doc.
kingcongkorab Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 We need to find our power play and soon. The third PP was better but the last 5 games or so we look lost on the PP.
SCSabresFan! Posted December 13, 2006 Report Posted December 13, 2006 Is anyone at this game? My god the crowd is dead. WOWOWOWOWOW! That was great! What a goal.
