Anyway, pretty good game against the Avs thus far. Holding the #1 offense scoreless through the first 50 minutes of the game = clutch.

Buffalo is starting to look really tired. Only 5 D-men will do that.

SMART timeout by Ruff.

The OT has been all CO. The road trip is finally catching up to them. Good thing it’s over. 🙂

Montreal lost to Anaheim tonight, so that extends their division lead to 4 points.

Oops, they have a 3 point lead, not 4.

3 out of 4 points is anything but bad against Minny and the Avalanche on a mini western conference road trip. Miller looked outstanding again throughout regulation and OT.

Still haven’t lost in regulation!

Exactly. That goal was BS though. Should have been interference. But what can you do. We have 14 out of a possible 16 points. Thats damn good. Our boys look good. Next is the first game against Ottawa at home. Its a big game. We got them though. We need to come out early and build that lead. If you guys didnt know im throwing a party at Slick Willies on monday the 27th 7-11 $25 all you can drink well and draft. MNF will be on, the World Series will be on and of course the Sabres game will be on. Lets go sabres.

HEY HEY, lets keep the Biron hate out of this thread. He’s a stand up guy that I still root for personally.

He was great here, great player, teammate and had a great personality in the locker room and bench. I was sad to see him go but he deserved a starting role.

x10000000000 He did his thing against NJ.  
Onto Buffalo’s game in Colorado.  
The game was good, fun to watch I DO NOT think there was a problem with that goal.  
Honestly unless colorado outplayed them that hardcore in the overtime period, It looked like Buffalo was trying to go to the shootout.  
They seemed unmotivated in the over time period, I think that hurt them.  
The shootout was deffinatly exciting.  
Did anyone else peep the giant grin on Millers face when he saved the sakic shot? haha.  
I think colorado out worked them in overtime and thats the only reason they got the W.

Yeah, that was another great chance to beat a team with really weak goaltending. Im glad we got the point but we should have had 2 with no problem for that game!

Just Karter jumped ship from the Sabres to Philly, mainly because of Biron. So I’m just showing him why he’s a moron. If he could keep the Miller hate out of this thread it’d be fine, an I’d leave Marty out of it.

As for Karter only getting the 1 day ban: WTF? NYSpeed has failed.

philly sucks. but I’m still a marty fan. However in terms of backup goaltenders go, i’m a conks fan more.

a lot of the hate i hear on miller is just foolish. like “wow that guy doesn’t know what he’s talking about” foolish, so I just dismiss it. goaltending is different from playing out, man. You have to judge it by a different set of standards.

plus, I’m a firm believer that playing the game opens gives a whole new perspective. I have friends that started a few years ago, and it’s wild how their vision changes on the ice over the course of 2-3 years (there are always exceptions). That is also evident in the way they watch the game; they see things more.
