The Official Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals GameDay Thread

[BlackMetalNinja]

Just for a little change of pace...


BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) -- With the Buffalo Sabres (http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/clubhouse?team=buf) facing renewed criticism after their latest sub-par playoff performance, goalie Ryan Miller (http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/players/profile?playerId=1549) shrugged his shoulders and offered some perspective.
"The sky hasn't fallen in yet, has it?" Miller said after practice Friday. "It wouldn't be the Sabres if we didn't do it the hard way."
For a team whose lone objective when the season began was winning the Stanley Cup, the Sabres sure haven't made things look easy.
After playing inconsistently in their first two playoff rounds, the Sabres find themselves down for the first time this postseason after being outplayed Thursday in a 5-2 loss to the Ottawa Senators (http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/clubhouse?team=ott) in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals.

Give him credit for taking the initiative.

[BlackMetalNinja]

I have a good overall record with game threads for what it's worth... not that I think it has anything to do with anything. Either way, I'm looking for the Sabres to come out tonight and show why we were the best team all season.

Good all around effort tonight and we win 5-3. Hopefully HSBC will be rockin tonight and we'll get the effort we need. GO SABRES!

[kinigirly]

i've been drinking since noon. i'm prepared for glory this time around

[Bufftp]

Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! SABRES!

[SabreEleven]

Nobody's mentioned that this is a Saturday game :couch:

[Mitchy moo]

Nobody's mentioned that this is a Saturday game :couch:

Well you just did.:candle:

[shelby]

i officially started drinking 45 minutes ago.:drunks:

:oldskool:

[Bufftp]

Go Sabres! :gosabres::oldskool:

[SabreEleven]

So I'm listening to the pregame show on the internet and they are interviweing Brian Murray and He says Ray Emery is a nice guy. So my question to you is "If an ******* says you are a nice guy, does that make you an *******?" I think so.....

[Philagape]

OK Sabres ... this is the game of your lives. Respond.

[kgun12]

i officially started drinking 45 minutes ago.:drunks:

:oldskool:

I drunk so much last night, my eye's are still bleeding!

So very quietly,



Let's go Buffalo!!! :oldskool:

[Philagape]

ROOOOYYYY on the power play! That's more like it!

[Philagape]

Son of a b***tch!!!

[MikeInRoch]

THAT is a b***s*** call.

[YardRat]

There we go :D

[Philagape]

THAT'S IT!!! Get it right back! Beautiful!!

[Philagape]

Great pass from Max

[YardRat]

No let up, dammit. If this team is going to start playing a full 60 minutes, ever, they need to start now.

[YardRat]

EMMMMMMMEEEERRRRRY!!! EMMMMMMMEEEEERRRRY!!!

[Philagape]

2-0!! They've turned on the switch!!!!! :jig:

[hammerbillsfan]

[Ebenezer]

ok...kill the penalty and kill their confidence

[shelby]

:beers:
Come on Sabs!!!!!

[shelby]

Dozer, Terry said to tell you Detroit is a superior hockey team.:ill:

[shelby]

If we can be aggressive and not expect Miller to save our asses, i will be a happy woman.

[shelby]

Good PK!
OK i'm back outside to the tiki bar:beers:

[Dozerdog]

Can Capn Red make me another Rum & coke?

[casdhf]

This is exactly the kind of start we needed for this game.

[Ebenezer]

got to score the next one...if not two.

[kinigirly]

could everyone please neg Dozer for me. i'm listening to the online audio which is a good 3 minutes behind and he is intent on ruining it for me on aol IM. i can't stop screaming

[OpIv37]

wow- what a difference. It could easily be 4-1 right now with the disallowed goal and Lydman hitting the post (I think it was Lydman).

And the PP doesn't look great but it looks significantly improved- it's providing chances instead of giving them up.

Now they just have to find a way to sustain that energy for 40 more mins....

[YardRat]

Better effort, but still not good enough. We need to be up by two or three and completely dominate the entire game.

[BlackMetalNinja]

Ahhhh, much better tonight. This is what I wanted to see. 60 minutes of this and they can't dream of touching us.

[PcA125]

The PP is soooo much better

[Ebenezer]

Emery is saving their bacon...

[SabreEleven]

could everyone please neg Dozer for me. i'm listening to the online audio which is a good 3 minutes behind and he is intent on ruining it for me on aol IM. i can't stop screaming

Liar, Dozer NEVER made a girl scream...

Turn off your IM.

[SabreEleven]

Emery is saving their bacon...

Don't you have Girl Scout cookies to make?

[shelby]

We look a **** of a lot better than we did the other night.

[SABURZFAN]

LETS GO BUFFALO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :beers:

[Ebenezer]

If we can be aggressive and not expect Miller to save our asses, i will be a happy woman.


if you can have two beers a day and get laid each night, you'd be a happy woman.

[Iehoshua]

Groan.

[YardRat]

Our PK still sucks :mad:

[SabreEleven]

AND...the laziness is BACK....Uggghhhh

[kgun12]

Roy takes a dumb penalty, but Miller has to make that save. Miller should have made the save on both those goals!!! He is the one player that can't have a bad night!!!

[YardRat]

Jesus H. Christ. Half the period is gone, and we have yet to get a shot on goal.

WTF :mad:

[Iehoshua]

So close yet so far...

[YardRat]

C'mon, dammit....score a freakin' PP goal.

[pyrrhonist]

And the PP still can't get ****. :mad:

[Iehoshua]

. . .

[pyrrhonist]

Ruff should have the locker room beat Roy down for taking too much time to decide what to do. 2 straight games that has happened to him.

[Mitchy moo]

Where getting shots now, let's see how it plays out. 5 on 3 for 1 minute for Ottawa now. We look like ****t on ST, really brutal. 3-2 Ottawa now.

[pyrrhonist]

Roughing? :rolleyes:

[YardRat]

Are you freakin' kidding me...that's a ****ing terrible call. :mad:

[pyrrhonist]

So now--Panic.

[YardRat]

Great. Just freaking great.

[Iehoshua]

We're screwed.

[OpIv37]

So, if the Senators can't beat the Sabres the refs will do it for them. WTF was that BS?

[YardRat]

I don't know about anybody else, but I'm getting damn sick and tired of waiting for this team to put together 60 minutes of solid hockey.

When the hell are they going to realize this is the playoffs, and there's no room for letting up?

[pyrrhonist]

Complete and utter joke. That call on Campbell was a joke! I just knew that Ottawa would score, too, since they know how to setup on the PP. If that ends up being the GWG, it will be a travesty.

[don137]

Roy suckS!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hate that guy...Get him off the team...His penalty caused Ottawa to tie it. Then on a crucial face off (what the F is he doing taking a face off since Roy sucks on faceoffs) Roy of course loses it and the Sens control the puck and score on the PP...
He blows..He hurts this team more than helps...Send him to Columbus...Get him off this team!!!!

[PcA125]

wtf was that call.... roughing? The other guy hit him and he put his hands up to defend himself... wtf


Still have time left though guys... come on, its not over yet

[SabreEleven]

The NHL HAS to have a Canadien team in the Finals and that just proved it...WHAT BULL****!!!!!!!!!!

[don137]

The officiating is definitely pro Ottawa but Buffalo after playing great for the first 12 minutes have gone back to going thru the motion hockey and doing nothing....\
BTW, Ottawa power play 2/3 tonight so far...

[PcA125]

They are right when they say that we have no answer for their PP right now... But they shouldnt have F****** been on the PP anyways... that was bull****

[don137]

They need to show some intensity..Vanek seems the only guy showing up on offense. I do agree the Sabres are getting called for really lame penalties.Almost trying to give the game to the Sens...Why this does not fire them up I have no clue why?

[pyrrhonist]

I don't usually play the conspiracy game, but I want to hear the NHL's explanation on that one. :pissed: :pissed:

With that out of the way--Keep up the pressure. Emery has been super shaky, and was saved by his 'D'.

[PcA125]

If we match the play we had in the first period we will win this game... otherwise its lights out

[pyrrhonist]

WTF--the VS asshats criticizing the calls? It's a miracle! :rolleyes:

[don137]

Did you hear the guys on Vs...They admit that both calls against Buffalo were crap...The NHL truly want Buffalo out..No way Vanek's goal should of been disallowed and then Van Mansehoven calls two bad calls to give a 5-3..
This is why the NHL will never gain respectability...

[Dozerdog]

Dozer, Terry said to tell you Detroit is a superior hockey team.:ill:

DIVORCE!!!!!



I'm gonna chant TEEEEEEE-----RRRRREEEEEEYYYYYYYY ...... TEEEEEEE -----RRRRREEEEEEYYYYYYYY ...... TEEEEEEE-----RRRRREEEEEEYYYYYYYY ...... all wedding long :mad:

[BlackMetalNinja]

DIVORCE!!!!!



I'm gonna chant TEEEEEEE-----RRRRREEEEEEYYYYYYYY ...... TEEEEEEE -----RRRRREEEEEEYYYYYYYY ...... TEEEEEEE-----RRRRREEEEEEYYYYYYYY ...... all wedding long :mad:

It's supposed to be "Teeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrry.... Teeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrry... Teeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrry... YOU SUCK!"

[OpIv37]

this is it people- if we don't win this period, this season is just another disappointment to add to the long list of Buffalo sports disappointments.

[pyrrhonist]

Did these 2 putos just say those were valid calls? :down:

Bust your asses, Buffalo!

[Dozerdog]

I'm gonna sell these at the wedding

[pyrrhonist]

A+ hit. If only our boys played with half that intensity.

[Iehoshua]

Wake up Buffalo! *clap clap* *clap clap clap*
WAKE UP BUFFALO! *clap clap* *clap clap clap*

[LtFinFan66]

Did you hear the guys on Vs...They admit that both calls against Buffalo were crap...The NHL truly want Buffalo out..No way Vanek's goal should of been disallowed and then Van Mansehoven calls two bad calls to give a 5-3..
This is why the NHL will never gain respectability...:rofl:

[pyrrhonist]

Terrible passing by the Sabres. :down: I think I'm just going to rewatch the 1st.

[pyrrhonist]

Another **** pass.

These guys won't sell me on Campbell's "penalty". :down:

[Iehoshua]

:::

[pyrrhonist]

I agree.

Look--Another juicy rebound, and no one to get it.

[Philagape]

Power play of the season coming up

[pyrrhonist]

Make-up call.

[Iehoshua]

*sigh*

[Nighthawk]

This team is an embarrassment to the city of Buffalo. Their effort is terrible...the biggest joke I've seen in sports in awhile!

[pyrrhonist]

This **** is over.

[MikeInRoch]

Far too late. Even the neutral announcers thought the 5-3 was bogus.

I guess this is the sort of thing you face against the last Canadian team.

[Philagape]

THEY DO IT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SpillerThrills]

GGGOOOOOAAAAAALLLLL!!!!!


DANNY BRIERE!!!! DANNY BRIERE!!!!!:dance: :dance: :dance:

[Iehoshua]

OMFGGGGGGGGGGG

[Nighthawk]

Far too late. Even the neutral announcers thought the 5-3 was bogus.

I guess this is the sort of thing you face against the last Canadian team.

Yes, I think the refs are on the fix, but the Sabres are gutless losers. They absolutely make me sick to be a Sabres fan. Their effort has been a joke!

[SpillerThrills]

This **** is over.


IT'S NOT OVER!!!!! IT'S NOT OVER!!!!!

[Iehoshua]

UNF'N REALLLLLLL

[SpillerThrills]

Yes, I think the refs are on the fix, but the Sabres are gutless losers. They absolutely make me sick to be a Sabres fan. Their effort has been a joke!


if they make you sick then stop watching!

[Nighthawk]

GGGOOOOOAAAAAALLLLL!!!!!


DANNY BRIERE!!!! DANNY BRIERE!!!!!:dance: :dance: :dance:

You're kidding?? Right? I'm not watching...holy ****!

[MikeInRoch]

Yes, I think the refs are on the fix, but the Sabres are gutless losers. They absolutely make me sick to be a Sabres fan. Their effort has been a joke!

I won't argue with that.

[Iehoshua]

WE HEAR YA YOGI!!! F'N A!!!

[pyrrhonist]

In my face, huh? :oops:

Who wears #48 again?

[Nighthawk]

if they make you sick then stop watching!

I did and they scored! Maybe their something to it...I'll keep doing it...whatever it takes!

[kgun12]

THEY DO IT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


HELL YA!!!

[PcA125]

omg ... if we win this game, its destiny. Holy ****.... twice? TWICE!? I was ready to accept defeatt and WHAM these guys know how to turn it on at the end of games!

[SabreEleven]

I JUST HAD A Heart ATTACK

[Nighthawk]

I know I'm a little riled up, but how can this team not give 100% effort all the time? I just don't get it!

[Dozerdog]

This team is an embarrassment to the city of Buffalo. Their effort is terrible...the biggest joke I've seen in sports in awhile!


I'm glad you don't represent Buffalo....You quitter!

[OpIv37]

twice? TWICE?

That pulling the goalie **** NEVER works but somehow they do it TWICE?

Unbelievable.

If they lose, the series is still over but at least they went down fighting.

[kgun12]

I JUST HAD A Heart ATTACK

Me too!!!

[MikeInRoch]

I need to up my high blood pressure medicine.

[SabreEleven]

You're kidding?? Right? I'm not watching...holy ****!
You need to take that ****ing French Connection Avatar down. You are a ****ing disgrace....you are nothing but ****ing negative....ALL THE TIME...

[Iehoshua]

We gotta take care of biz in OT...

[PcA125]

This **** doesnt happen in real life does it? This is like its out of a movie. Mighty Ducks style.... its a Miracle

[pyrrhonist]

See, Buffalo--Rebounds! Crash the net.

Stop replaying that crap overruled goal from the 1st.

[Mitchy moo]

Wow, we are so clutch. We need to come out Blazing in OT and win it early. Ottawa will then have to hear you had your shot to win both games and you blew it with seconds to go. I f-in love it.

[Billscusey]

These guys must sleep with horseshoes in their pillows or something! I don't believe this!

[Philagape]

I'm glad you don't represent Buffalo....You quitter!


Seriously ... I'm more embarassed by the whining crap rhetoric here

[BlackMetalNinja]

****ing rediculous... Good thing my wife just went to bed because I sure as hell would have woke her up if she was already asleep.

All that being said, if they don't get the goal and win this, it's worthless and even more of a heartbreak.

Once again, like the last time, we need to get one in the first 5 minutes while we have the momentum... I smell Drury Time!

[camelcowboy]

:dizzy:

[Mitchy moo]

I'm glad you don't represent Buffalo....You quitter!

Exactly, quit and don't try. The people of Buffalo can learn alot from their team, you never give up and never give in.

[Dozerdog]

:rofl: Did you see the highlights and Muckler's reaction to the tying goal?

[YardRat]

:gosabres:

[pyrrhonist]

Danny sees the issues--NOW, tell the guys to come out flying.

And, good job questioning the refs. Only the 2 pendajo announcers are sold on them being legit. :rolleyes:

[Philagape]

You need to take that ****ing French Connection Avatar down. You are a ****ing disgrace....you are nothing but ****ing negative....ALL THE TIME...

Whatever our teams do wrong, the relentless moaning and whining by the nancies only makes it worse. That's all it does, make it more miserable.

[don137]

:rofl: Did you see the highlights and Muckler's reaction to the tying goal?
Not only that, did you see the bottom of the screen on VS. They show Ottawa leads the series 2-0.

[Iehoshua]

:pray:

Let's win this!

[BlackMetalNinja]

Whatever our teams do wrong, the relentless moaning and whining by the nancies only makes it worse. That's all it does, make it more miserable.

AMEN... we all get it Nighthawk, you don't like how they're playing... but filling the board with it 238 times a game isn't changing it either.

[SabreEleven]

Brian Murray has to room to ***** on that penalty...He should be sucking referee's dicks...not *****ing at them....I told him to shut the **** up.

[Nighthawk]

You need to take that ****ing French Connection Avatar down. You are a ****ing disgrace....you are nothing but ****ing negative....ALL THE TIME...

Dude you better watch what you say...tough guy behind the computer! As for my OVERREACTION to the play in the game, yes, maybe a little over the top and I apologize to all Sabres fans. Just my emotions getting the better of me. However, don't talk s**t over a computer...you little punk!

[hammerbillsfan]

:rofl: Did you see the highlights and Muckler's reaction to the tying goal?

that was some classic **** right there!

[camelcowboy]

Sabres crossed checked one of the ottawa players on the tying goal. Refs have been pretty bad for both teams.

[Dozerdog]

AMEN... we all get it Nighthawk, you don't like how they're playing... but filling the board with it 238 times a game isn't changing it either.Must be Biron's fault

[SabreEleven]

Dude you better watch what you say...tough guy behind the computer! As for my OVERREACTION to the play in the game, yes, maybe a little over the top and I apologize to all Sabres fans. Just my emotions getting the better of me. However, don't talk s**t over a computer...you little punk!

Dude, It isn't just THIS game. It is ever SINGLE one of your posts...EVERYONE...So now, not only are you a better hockey player than me, you are a UFC champion....

[Nighthawk]

Must be Biron's fault

Listen, are you hard headed? I already apologized for the negativety....what else do you want?

[Nighthawk]

Dude, It isn't just THIS game. It is ever SINGLE one of your posts...EVERYONE...So now, not only are you a better hockey player than me, you are a UFC champion....

Hey, go back and read everyone of my posts...I never called you anything! I never play computer tough guy...YOU DID! I'm over, I learned my lesson...but you should also.

[Iehoshua]

C'mon stop bickering! We need to focus on this game!

[Nighthawk]

C'mon stop bickering! We need to focus on this game!

I'm with you...I'm trying! I'm done with the bickering.

[Philagape]

They gotta stop these no-look passes

[SpillerThrills]

They gotta stop these no-look passes


we've gotta figure out how to pass it to our own team!

[pyrrhonist]

So far, all Ottawa in OT. :worried:

[Nighthawk]

we've gotta figure out how to pass it to our own team!

Simple is more, simple is better...this must be the philosophy in the playoffs.

[SpillerThrills]

we have to many guys that want to do it all themselfs...

[Typ0]

Vanek should have five goals in this game.

[Nighthawk]

we have to many guys that want to do it all themselfs...

Yes, this a huge problem with this team and why they struggle to get offense going.

[Nighthawk]

Vanek should have five goals in this game.

At least 5 goals!

[Iehoshua]

Jeez... Whew.

[Dozerdog]

LETS GO BUFFALO

[pyrrhonist]

That was far too close. Miller again bails us out! :whew:

[Nighthawk]

LETS GO BUFFALO

LETS GO BUFFALO!

[SpillerThrills]

MILLER IS GOD!!!!!


ALFREDSON is a cheap bastard!!! shoulda been a game there!!!!!

[Iehoshua]

Refs are putrid.

[don137]

How is that not a boarding major?

[MikeInRoch]

That should be a suspension. But it won't be.

[Philagape]

***** Alfredsson left his feet :mad:

[MikeInRoch]

How is that not a boarding major?

Not against a Canadian team.

[pyrrhonist]

Another ****bag hit from an Ottawa player. :mad: Stick out the knee next time he's out there! :down:

[don137]

That should be a suspension. But it won't be.
Its not even a penalty..Wow these refs are bad

[Nighthawk]

Its not even a penalty..Wow these refs are bad

I'm starting to think the NHL really wants a canadien team in the finals.

[pyrrhonist]

How that wasn't called is beyond me.

[Typ0]

the only way that wasn't a call is they just weren't watching.

[Philagape]

About f'in time

[SpillerThrills]

if there is ever a time for our PP to click it NOW!!!!

[Iehoshua]

Let's get it done NOW!

[pyrrhonist]

I anxiously await "The Lisp's" (Murray) explanation for that cheap shot.

[MikeInRoch]

So if boarding isn't a penalty, I think we need to be doing that to Alfredson all game long.

[Typ0]

does emery ever fail to give up a ripe rebound. It's rediculous. We should have scored ten times.

[SpillerThrills]

another wasted PP attempt

[pyrrhonist]

Once again, the PP is Sharks-like.

[Nighthawk]

So if boarding isn't a penalty, I think we need to be doing that to Alfredson all game long.

Or Heatley...

[SpillerThrills]

Or Heatley...


or Neil

[pyrrhonist]

Trip by Emery...No call. :wtf:

[Nighthawk]

or Neil

Yep...

[pyrrhonist]

Do the Sabres know it is ok to hit? Play the ****ing body., go to the corners! :mad:

[Philagape]

:phew:

[Nighthawk]

Do the Sabres know it is ok to hit? Play the ****ing body., go to the corners! :mad:

They haven't used the body enough...I agree.

[Iehoshua]

Good Lord.

[SpillerThrills]

how many times are the refs gonna let Ott. punch our guys in the face during the play??? I've seen quite a few right or left hooks to that would make Muhammad Ali proud.......

[PcA125]

and we go to 2OT


Ryan Miller came up BIG a few times

[pyrrhonist]

Ottawa gets the star for that OT, but no goal. :whew:

Buffalo needs to figure out Lisp's trap, and SOON.

[OpIv37]

WTF- Spacek gets punched in the face and taken down, Tallinder gets destroyed from behind, Emery mugs anyone who comes within 4 feet of the crease, but no f'n penalties?

How do they call that borderline **** on us then let them get away with murder?

[BlackMetalNinja]

Miller bailed us out of the first OT... good to see him stepping up. We really need an odd man rush, I don't think we've had one all game long. And our PP is looking seriously inept!

[Mitchy moo]

Shots on goal:

1st: Ott 8 Buf 15
2nd: Ott 9 Buf 5
3rd: Ott 4 Buf 8
OT1: Ott 9 Buf 6
OT2: Our turn.

[SabreEleven]

WTF- Spacek gets punched in the face and taken down, Tallinder gets destroyed from behind, Emery mugs anyone who comes within 4 feet of the crease, but no f'n penalties?

How do they call that borderline **** on us then let them get away with murder?

That was Drury he punched while Drury was a foot out of the crease.

[pyrrhonist]

The VS guys have been experts at fellating our opponents in every series. :rolleyes:

[Typ0]

after listening to OUR broadcasts VS is extreemly boring.

[Ebenezer]

Must be intermission...the nurses just brought down a whole bunch of samples...won't see anybody until the game is over or the next intermission whichever comes first.

[Mitchy moo]

The VS guys have been experts at fellating our opponents in every series. :rolleyes:

Actually they have an uncanny ability to clean up the mess after the fellating as well.

[Iehoshua]

Let's go Sabressssssssssss!

[camelcowboy]

Go times boys!!!

[Mitchy moo]

Max had a shot there.

[Ebenezer]

:oldskool:

[Dozerdog]

after listening to OUR broadcasts VS is extreemly boring.I have synced the tivo with Jenerette on the internet

[Ebenezer]

I have the WGR broadcast on the computer here at work. The hospital is very quiet - everybody must be listening.

[pyrrhonist]

Can't be icing the puck like that

[Iehoshua]

:(

[Typ0]

it's history.

[Mitchy moo]

It's F-in over, ottawa Win 4-3.

[Mitchy moo]

Can't be icing the puck like that

You we're more right than you think.

[Typ0]

we have to go to their building and win two...but we have to win one first.

[PcA125]

well... I guess now the sky is falling

[SkateZilla]

SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ****ING SHOOT IT OFF THE FACE OFF INSTEAD OF PLAYING WITH IT!!

[Ebenezer]

oh well. back to work...I'm sure we are about to be slammed.

[pyrrhonist]

Like I said... :cry:

I thought of the Rags after that iced puck.

Still, I will remember tonight for the officiating--How BAD it was.

[Crisis]

Well, things sure are looking bleak...

Ottawa is playing with a lot of passion.

[Iehoshua]

What a buzzkill.

[don137]

Not looking good...

[Mitchy moo]

I just seen pai mei's 5 point heart exploding used on Bill, that's something positive.

[OpIv37]

the refs get an assist for that one- that was some lopsided penalty calling. Of course, the Sabres also slept-walked through the 2nd and most of the 3rd...

[Dozerdog]

We got Ottawa right where we want 'em

[Philagape]

I'm not giving up hope.

[Mitchy moo]

I just seen pai mei's 5 point heart exploding used on Bill, that's something positive.

He's taking his final 5 steps.

I just seen pai mei's 5 point heart exploding used on Bill, that's something positive.WTF is that in english?

[Typ0]

Well, things sure are looking bleak...

Ottawa is playing with a lot of passion.

they want to win more than we do...not that we don't want to win but they want it more and they are a better team right now. We better cut out the BS, stop eating and get hungry.

[don137]

I think most of the Sabres played with passion tonight but Ottawa likes to shoot where Buffalo likes to pass the puck...Can't say the series is over but it's not looking good right now...

[Mitchy moo]

Kill Bill, volume 2.

[don137]

I just can't stand listening to the cocky Ottawa players for 2 more days on how great they are.

[kinigirly]

skooby stfu

[LABillsFan]

I knew that icing was going to cost them the game. I knew it, I knew it, I knew it.

[don137]

As soon as they lost the face off I cringed and then cringed more when the puck went in...

[OpIv37]

That was Drury he punched while Drury was a foot out of the crease.

it wasn't the only time he did it either- there were several other times when he was taking swipes at people. I know I saw him hit Vanek at least once.

[LABillsFan]

They're out of gas. You could see it the last part of the regular season and the first round of the playoffs. Still a very good year. Maybe the Sabres need to finish 8th next year.

[kgun12]

:ill:

[SkateZilla]

Like I said... :cry:

I thought of the Rags after that iced puck.

Still, I will remember tonight for the officiating--How BAD it was.

WARNING : PERSISTANT COMPLAINING G BELOW

Ottawa Has Had a 5 On 3 EVERY Game (Game 1, they Would have had a 5 on 3),

Every Official Is from Ontario, you think its bad now, wait till Monday, they will be in their home town, they are gonna call **** one way all nite and wednesday too,

this series is over, this league is a effing joke, bring in all Canadian officials who are all from Ottawa no less, who have all voiced publicaly that they cheered for Ottawa or Toronto as kids... ARE YOU EFFING KIDDING ME? So The Sabres Have To deal with Alfredsson Boarding People, That by the way was suspension worthy, and you can tell me lil old 195 lbs Spezza Blocked the VIew of the Ref, he Had a Clear line of effing Site.

The League Is a Joke, Ottawa Gets Away with Murder, the Refs Literally Tried to give the Sens the Game in the End of the 2nd Period, I Mean, Stick To Stick,

Im AM So Sick of these Refs 60 Feet Away from the Play Calling Phantom Penalties, Specially when they Cant Physically SEE the Infraction, they Assume it was (Like Zubrus' Hooking, It was stick to stick, and Both teams were doing it all nite and all of a sudden its a penalty?)

Campbell Gets Called for roughing for a punch (though VS didnt show it) Yet, Twice In OT Emery Blatantly Punches Drury in his shoulder and Briere in his face, no call, ref looking right the **** at him.

The League is Making sure its only remaining Canadian Team is gonna be the spoiled bastard child team this year, they are gonna give them every call, wehter its a goal disallowed or allowed,

they are gonna randomly call penalties to get Ottawa back in the game, then obviously ignore them every other time.

And the Sabres Arent off the Hook,

I ****ing Tired of seeing other teams being able to pinch and keep pucks in on the PP left and right. yet we cant seem to keep the puck in the zone at all, the Power Play is a disgrace, and who ever is in charge of it needs to be removed,

Im Also Tired of Seeing the Point Men Passing the Puck off and / or turning it over because the dont want to shoot, dont tell me its better to pass it off, CORVO just shot it off the hip and we are now in a 0-2 Hole in the series, if You win the face off back cleanly, SHOOT THE ****ING PUCK, if you have Time, SHOOT THE ****ING PUCK, Dont play Around with it for 5 seconds then dump it along the boards, We are the ONly team that plays the PP like we are playing 5 On 5, seriously, its Nerve Rackign to see constant Lanes Open for backdoor/cross crease feeds and instead the player dumps it to the boards or turns it over trying to be a loner.

Anyone else wanna add anything?

[Ebenezer]

is it possible...just slightly possible that the Sens are the better team and people underestimated how good Emery has been playing and that they really do have 4 lines that can match ours?? those last 45-50 games of the regular season and dismissing Pitt and NJ weren't exactly a fluke.

Better team? I don't think so personally but hungier? By a LONG shot. They want it more. They have more hustle and drive and are winning pretty much all the battles.

Excellent post! :bf1:

[Michael82]

If we lose tonight...it's on to the next person. I nominate Philagape to do the Gameday thread on Monday if we lose. But I don't see it happening. BMN will be safe. :up:
BUMP! :(

[pyrrhonist]

I anxiously await "The Lisp's" (Murray) explanation for that cheap shot.

Well, it wasn't from "The Lisp", but Alfredsson had this crap to say about his board from behind:


''I don't know, he came right back after, so I don't know if he was trying to draw a penalty,'' he said.


Sweet Jesus, today's players will say anything to sound innocent..... :rolleyes:
