If you were there cheering over the silence you would have changed the game. The goalie would have heard your cheers and played just a little bit different and the game would have ended up totally different.

Way to go. You cost us the game Mr. Butterfly Effect.

Jesus Christ who are these guys, the bills? Lindy needs to start getting their head out of their asses.

And I have to say that at first I liked Rivet but the more he plays the more I see that he doesn’t fit with this team. He’s too slow and at times seems almost lazy, 3 times in this game he did not skate for the puck and allowed the pens to get the puck in the corner on a shoot in.

In fact the whole defense can step it up.

QFT…Spacek sucks. He is terrible on defense and always lets the puck slip over the line on the point…Get rid of him…Maxipad needs to leave also.

Normally I disagree about max but if he doesn’t get it together its time to go. I think he is the longest oldest team member as far as being on the team, I could be wrong.

If he scores under 25 goals then its time to go.

Honestly I like max alot and he is one of , if not my favorite player in the entire league. But he just simply does not fit with the sabres anymore. We are a younger team and a slower team( for the most part), simple as that. The style he plays is an overly fast paced game. Similar to most russian players.The plays he trys to make are way too fast and enhanced for most of the team to comprehend and be compatable with. He passes too fast, he skates too fast and he shoots too fast, plain and simple.Itl kill me if we trade him at the dead line but his chemistry doesn’t fit our team. Throw him on the red wings with datsyuk or zetterberg and he will dominate the league.

best assessment of max I have seen on this board. i agree wholeheartedly, though I don’t think he would fit on the wings. more veteran team with classic breakout and regroup style, don’t think he would work. I could see him on the caps or something maybe. though with the wings he would be reunited with conks, who is fucking sick btw

fuck ub. i would have played for them if they didn’t practice at 5:30am. I’d do that for d3, but not for fucking club. melcher’s a good player though, and fish is a bit inconsistent but he can do well for sure

Not impressed with Miller whatsoever right now. The best save of the game was by Max of all people.
