We all know what’s at stake for the Buffalo Sabres right now. Every point is important, being 2 back of Washington (also playing tonight). The improbable run Buffalo’s on (slightly more improbable than last year) is coming to a close, with only 8 more games left after tonight. The Sabres have gotten a lot [...]
I went to the Sabres/Canadiens game on Monday, and I thought I’d comment about the issue everyone is talking about (while they distract themselves from a stressful playoff run). I had zero problems with the crowd or the noise they made. Did it get quiet during play? Yeah, but *I* get quiet during play [...]
Hey, you guys. Yes, you, with the sign and the face paint. Keep it down tomorrow night, my son and I are attending a hockey game, and I want to watch what happens. Feel the wrath of my disapproving stare when you yell “SHOOOOOOT” seven seconds into a power play. Quiver in your seats [...]
There used to be a vocal minority of Miller detractors, and one of their favorite songs to sing was “Miller never steals games!”. And while the rest of us know that this isn’t the first game he’s stolen, it’s one of the most obvious. The Sabres slept-walked through the first and most of the [...]
The Bruins and the Canadiens play their sixth and final game of the regular season tonight, and the last two games have been quite memorable. You have Chara ramming/guiding/elbowing/brushing Max Pacioretty into a stanchion between the benches (with the word used to describe it differing based on your rooting interest) in the last game. [...]
The Buffalo Sabres play their final regular season game against the Montreal Canadiens tonight at 7:30 PM. Buffalo wants to ‘channel their anger‘ from the somewhat embarrassing collapse against the Preds the other night, so hopefully that leads to a beatdown of the Habs. Said Gaustad:
I’ll say this: Guys on this team care. [...]
It doesn’t get much more exciting than that, does it? Enroth weathers a storm as the Sabres give up 18 shots in the first period, with Stafford and and Pominville scoring to tie the game up and send it to a shootout. And what a shootout it was, 10 rounds, and coming back from [...]
There may not really be any such thing, but Buffalo can’t afford to give up points to division teams. Net positive, yes, but time is running out, and 3 point games (as much as you might hate them) just don’t help enough. Gotta get wins in regulation time here. The Sabres have 3 teams [...]
Another day, another chance at a home win. It won’t be any easier than beating Boston, however, as Miller may not play, and it’s the same crew of lackadaisical scrubs giving pucks away like candy on Halloween. I still feel they can stand in with any team in the league, but I won’t expect [...]
Buffalo is hosting their 40th anniversary celebration tonight, as 40 years ago they opened the season against the Montreal Canadiens. Members of the Knox family are in, Buffalo is wearing their whites at home, and more. Should be a fun time.
Shaone Morissonn is out with a groin injury, so either Weber or Butler [...]
