    I refuse to thank the Sabres

    I'm tired of Buffalo getting kicked in the nuts. I'm tired of accepting mediocrity(sp?), which Buffalo does every year. Everybody will say what a great regular season they had, but guess what, Toto, Regular season doesn't mean ****. The Sabres choked and everybody is ok with it. **** that.

    I'm bitter.....

    PS. Has Danny signed with Philly yet?

    I can totaly see your point dude. This was "the season" they were going to do it. We all had high expectations after last season. It is a huge let down that they get beat down like that.

    If the Bills make it to the title game and lose, I'll be pissed when it happens but overall I'd have to call that a damn good season.

    But the Sabres made it to the conf finals last year and stretched it to 7 games- they were 5 wins from the Cup. They couldn't even repeat that this year- they didn't improve and they squandered the best chance Buffalo had to win since at least 1999.

    At least this team is competitive every year, but they were mediocre when it counted the most.

    Two Eastern conference losses and im suppose to be thankful for the team. Best record in the NHL to not show up for most of the playoffs. We are now choakers because ottawa just gave that title to us.

    well I'm not going to gloat about being right because there is no reason to celebrate losing. So I'm only going to say one thing: I wish people would stop accusing me of *****ing just to *****. There is damn good reason for my pessimism.

    I'm not thankful at all. This is a colossal failure.




    But the next time Buffalo has a championship contender, I'll hope til the very end

    Re: I refuse to thank the Sabres

    It was a great season.

    Thanks for the memories! That Boston game I went to where we score 3 goals in the final 8 minutes to tie, and won on a shootout- and the Toronto comeback in march were awesome memories.


    This team has all the ingredients for a championship- the only thing they lacked was experience.

    Ottawa learned from their failures, we will to. It is not the time to panic- dumping 1/3 of the roster and calling up the top 2 lines in Rochester- or better yet- investing millions in players who didn't even get this far would be a waste.

    Re: I refuse to thank the Sabres

    Nope in the end I agree... the season was a failure.

    It was Stanely Cup victory or bust.... I find nothing satisfying about the outcome of this year and until we win it all I can never be satisfied.

    I will however renew my optomism during the offseason and start again liek the rest of the faithful

    I hate to disagree Dozer...it was a good season, very good, but not great. And sadly they don't have all the components for a championship, otherwise, they should still be playing. Will be interesting to see who we lose in free agency....Briere, Drury, Vanek, etc.....but definitely the defense which handicapped us last year due to injuries, did it again this year by being 'porous'....I think we need a couple large bodied wingers and beefier defense which handles the puck a bit better in order to get to that championship

    Yeah bad example, im still dating that girl 5 years later still with very little noodle wetting"see the twilight zone", but how long does buffalo have to go with out a championship? I hope the sabres "wet their noodle" in the next 2-3 years because the window will slam shut.

    The missing ingredient is experience. Half of this roster was in Rochester 2 years ago
