This team is just good enough...

[OpIv37]

to occasionally make me forget just HOW ****ING BAD THEY ARE.

They'll win a game or two and I'll start to think they turned it around, then some **** happens to bring me back to reality.

I didn't get to watch the game, but I did hear the third period on streaming audio, and I was happily surprised that it was only 1-0 going into the 3rd. "1 to tie, 2 to win- we can manage that."

Wow, that was stupid. I really hate everyone on this team short of 3 or 4 guys.

Re: This team is just good enough...

I know this will come to a shock to a lot of people, but they are pretty much just like every other NHL hockey team. Teams have good days, teams have bad days, teams slump, teams get hot, etc. I thought that this team was under achieving pretty much the first few weeks, but have played just like most other teams in the league. I think that is pretty much where Darcy will take this team these days, just enough to get by.

They are not bad, they are not good.

Without Miller though, this team is not a playoff team.

They're not a playoff team with Miller. Scoring is the problem.

Re: This team is just good enough...

I was at the game and they are an f'n lazy team. They don't skate hard, don't fight through checks and they make stupid passes that should never be made. They really are a very bad hockey team who's success last year was a big time fluke. This probably will be the 3rd time in 4 years that they miss the playoffs and that is a better gauge of what this team and it isn't good. Oh, you'll see the Sabres organization use the excuse that they had injuries...they always find an excuse. It's time to realize that the talent on this team was gone when Drury and Briere were let go.
