        I sure hope the team is pissed at how poorly the other night, and take it out on the Thrashers tonight. I would love nothing more than to see Buffalo decimate Atlanta.

          2-0 already!?!

          Unfortunately I'm at work until 5:30pm (PST), so I have zero clue if that score is due to Biron playing poorly, the team being flat again, or what.

            Absolutely humiliating.

              This is probably the worst game I've seen all year... At least with Ottawa there is some level of excuse for getting killed, but Atlanta is nowhere good enough to be doing this to us right now. I sure hope this little slump comes to a real quick end.

                Well

                if it means anything,

                this is our 2nd game without RUff on teh bench,

                so the understudy obviosuly dont know what he's doing,

                seeing he benched Vanek for 32 minutes again ottawa..

                  skate your blaming it on ruff not being there??

                  im sorry, but that post was down right ******ED.

                  the team is slow, constant giveaways..they have no willpower to win right now..it is a joke, worst performance this season.

                  it really is embarassing.

                        The Understudy is letting stuff slide, and benching players for too long for stupid ****.

                        When Ruff comes back, he's gonna go ballistic..

                            According to today's Buffalo News Ruff did coach the team Saturday and was the one who decided to bench Vanek due to turnovers.
