Of course we are all hoping the Sabres can come back....but what would be worse...
losing in 5 or losing in 7?

For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
Losing in 4
I'm going out on a limb...they'll win at least one in OttawaOriginally Posted by clumping platelets
Until Miller stops letting easy ones by him, we have no chance. The overtime winner was by no means his fault though, just a bad bounce.
Losing in five would be much worse. If we manage to get to a game 7, at least we played like we belonged here in the first place.
Right now we look as if we're in over our head.

This team is frustrating the out of me.
right now I could see the Sabres getting swept or losing in 5. That would be worse. 7 games would mean that they came back and just barely lost to a good team. 5 games or a sweep means that they didn't bother to show up after they got this ass kicked in the first 2 games.
There is no reason why we can't win 2 in Ottawa and regain home ice advantage.
Oh wait. There is a reason. We stink right now.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

I would think losing in 5 would be worse, but I don't know, I am still optimistic.
we need to be able to put more than 2 pucks in the net in the first 59:50 of the game....... with the rebounds that Emery gives up we should be able to score about 5-7 each game.
You could see the problem the moment the 2nd period started yesterday, they lost there edge, and seemed happy to wait for something to happen, instead of making it happen... and Ottowa took advantage of it.
but bottom line is if our special teams does not do a complete 180 you can stick a fork in us. Without some powerplay goals and better penalty killing we'll be lucky to last 5....
i think losing in 7 would be worse...that would mean they would come back to tie the series...tease the heck out of us...get all our hopes up again...and then have them crashing back to earth...

that's exactly what i was thinking. how many times do i have to deal with my teams getting so close to glory then losing it right at the end. if the hockey gods aren't gonna let us win this just make the pain quick and short.Originally Posted by Ebenezer
Blaming these losses on Miller is just idiotic. Every goalie lets in goals. If Miller played as bad as the team in front him, this game would been 10-3Originally Posted by jamze132
Well what's idiotic is having a GAA of 4.00 in the conference finals. I know it's not all his fault, the defense has been leaving to many shooting lanes, especially on the power play. But he needs to play better if we are going to get back in this thing. He has let too many easy goals by him and it seems like whenever someone gets one on one with him, it's an automatic goal. He needs to step up and play like a Stanley Cup champion goalie or he will never have the opportunity.Originally Posted by SabreEleven
yeah...we should be winning every game 2-1......the guy has made some incredible saves...without him we lose the first two games 7-2, 7-2Originally Posted by jamze132
