Blue Jackets @ Sabres Game Thread

:huddle:

I arrived home with about 12:00 left in the 1st, with the score already 1-0. I got to see the Roy goal. As I thought, Buffalo is cruising thus far against soft Columbus. I just hope that the guys can maintain the tough play throughout 2 more periods, and they don't go into "safe" mode. :madcurse:

Excellent penalty killing on that 5-on-3. :up:

Rick stated that he thinks the majority of the East would rather the Sabres not make the playoffs, as they're playing so well. I'm not totally sure that's true.

Sabres are beating the hell out of Columbus.

Damn those back to back losses to the Isles, and that giveaway OT loss when we were up 5-2 to Toronto. That 1 point could haunt us.

That win is a big time statement. That's got to make NY nervous, and no one plays well when their nervous. Our team isn't nervous, they're desperate, and that's going to make a big difference.

They announced during our game that Mark Messier is going to sit out the NYR last 2 games so Wed will be his last game of the year & possibly carrer ... I hope that wont inspire the rangers to much..

AWESOME game to listen to. My Mom and Dad were there; they got free 100-level seats! My Mom called me after the game and I said "How did you like seeing Kalinin score 2 goals? They wanted to get him a third". And she's like "What?" Oh, such a waste of a ticket on her, although she had a great time!
I totally agree, we're desperate, and that might be the kicker against the Isles. However, the Isles will feel like total crap if we take their playoff spot, so... that might be enough incentive for them.
GO SABRES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Beat those Rags!

[pyrrhonist]

Sweet Xmas, can you imagine----We'd be 1 point back, if the guys didn't squander leads against both Toronto, and Pittsburgh. :down:

We'd be in 8th By 1 Point if We Woulda Sealed the Deall in Boston 2x, and Toronto, and Pittsburg.. :p

Yeah, when it comes down to it, playoffs give much-needed money to these teams. Unfortunately some of the same damn teams keep getting in. I'm kind of happy for Tampa Bay getting in so highly-seeded. Mix it up a bit!
