    Sabres fans

    I have been reading everything you guys have been ranting about over here. I obviously have my two cents about the series, but I like all of you and don't want to create any trolling or drama. If you guys have any questions about my thoughts or about the B's I will be happy to answer them here.

    If not that's cool too, Good Luck in Game 4.

    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

    what's there to say? you guys are the harder working team. the sabres are uninterested in playing.

    if i see another lackidaisical backhand pass in our zone, i will turn off the game...which means, i'll be turning off the game on wednesday at the 2 minute mark of the 1st period.

    Hey, at least you talk about the Bruins here all year long, and not just once they've won in the playoffs! I'd be interested in hearing your take on the Sabres performance so far. I know you don't watch them all the time like the rest of us, so I'm not sure what your expectations were heading into the series, but I assure you, they are playing well below mine.

    I did think this was the best match-up for the Bruins. Because the Sabres style is typically a little soft. That being said I gave the series to the Sabres and I am not 100% convinced that the Bruins have a hold on them up 2-1.

    Miller is outstanding, however the Bruins have the most unconventional offense out there... it's not flashy and they're not accurate, they just hammer the goalie with pucks and hope for a rebound or a redirect. I don't care who your goalie is, no one was stopping that Wideman goal last night... that shot was a wounded duck. IMO the Sabres need to get into a similar gameplan.

    The Bruins defense has been terrible all season, but this drop pass thing isn't working for you at all. I don't know if they're looking for the pass too often or what but they're getting bumped off the puck pretty easily and they're not getting the passing lanes at all, they just need to let the puck fly.

    Lasty, stop trying to play the Bruins game of hockey, the scrums after the whistles and trying to make the big hits just seems to firing the Bruins up even more. The Bruins have pretty much been terrible all season, but they're playing with a passion and a desire right now.

    Ok taking shots at me is one thing but know what your talking about. I did not come here just because we won. I came here for a reason not to talk about us winning jesus man.

    Then onto the series now.... Buffalo is my 2nd fav team so keep talking out your ass. If buffalo gets by us Ill be there rooting for them also. So get off your high horse.

    Re: Sabres fans

    I agree with Bedard. I also picked the Sabres to win this series because the Bruins offense is lackluster especially without Savard. I still dont think the Bruins have the series in the bag. And if the Sabres do come back and win Ill be rooting for them to win it all. Now lets just enjoy the rest of the series and dont get down too much right now guys its not over.

    Re: Sabres fans

    I think your defense is playing great right now, clearing all the pucks away from the net and not giving up many rebound chances. The Sabres NEED to crash the net and find those loose pucks. Plus, they need players going to the net and trying to get a stick on the puck. I am driven crazy by the amount of pucks that get thrown near the net or through the crease and there isn't a Sabre within the same zip code.

    I don't care why you decided to show up, it doesn't change the timing of anything. This forum is here all season long man.

    And who the hell has a 2nd favorite team in the same damn division? Talk about conflict of interest...

    Re: Sabres fans

    If Boston isnt in the playoffs and buffalo is or if they arent playing each other I root for Buffalo Im not going to lie. Just like Im a bills fan and like Syracuse in NCAA Basketball. Maybe I was born and lived there in a prior life?? LOL

    I was here earlier in the year just not all that much. I hang in the bills zone pretty much all the time. So sue me

    The Bruins are not accurate shooters... but Miller does have a hard time with the top shelf stuff, although that wasn't an issue tonight. Two goalies battled their asses off tonight. After two OT's someone is bound to make a mistake, but nothing about Miller is soft.
