OFFICIAL '08-'09 BUFFALO SABRES SEASON THREAD

fuck you gotta be kidding me, this many injuries this early into the season??

better to get the injuries out of the way early.

damn… 2 weeks minimum, that stinks

hopefully he’ll be recovered soon

i guarantee that this isnt the end of our injuries.

i know but it is better to get the major players injuries out to the way.

what?

…never mind

Wow, had to edit this entire this entire post. Mobile phone posting FTL.

Anyway, I had the defense pairings wrong. Well, only Sekera and Tallinder. So if they bring up Weber, they’ll probably look like this:

Sekera-Weber
Tallinder-Lydman
Spacek-Numminen.

I don’t know how I’ll feel about seeing Lydman and Tallinder together again. If they call up Paetsch then all of this jargin is moot, anyway. :lol:

YESS BRING UP WEBER! WEBER FTW!

yea lol they could just get hurt again? its not gonna make them invincable lol.

Def weber> paetsch. who knows what theyll do. I just hope they aren’t confused as hell and don’t have a solid game plan with out their captain.

He was fun to watch in pre season for sure. Anyone know when Hecht is back?

I really try not to be an ass online but these may be some of the dumbest comments ever!

Ughh… this Rivet thing sucks… Good thing we still have Numminen and Spacek to fill the leadership roles but Rivet was by far playing the best defensively.

i understand that they could get hurt again. but right now i am hoping that my superstition that if our players get hurt early in the season, that they will be ready to play by the end of the season.

Paetsch sucks ass. He cant fight, he turns the puck over and he has no passing or shoot. Weber all the way. Our D is solid this year.

Sounds like Paetsch is going to get the call-up :frowning:

From Sabres.com

Filling in for the injured Sabres’ captain is Nathan Paetsch, who will pair up with veteran Teppo Numminen.

Paetsch-Numminen
Tallinder-Lydman
Sekera-Spacek

The only good thing about Paetsch getting paired up with Nums is that Teppo always seems to settle his linemates down.

Wonderful.

I’m not going to hate on him just yet. A lot of players go back to the AHL and come back playing like actual NHL caliber players.

We’ll just have to wait and see.

Should be a good game tonight…hopefully the D can still prevent a 40+ shot game.

Gaborik is still out for the Wild, but Nolan is expected to play tonight. Minnesota is definitely a more offensive team than they used to be, so I like Buffalo’s chances more than I ever have against them.

Does anyone know if the Time Warner DVR can record 2 Shows at once???

I have class tonight but The Office and Its Always Sunny are on too. I want to record all three…

Yes it can record two shows at once. Also you have to watch one of the ones your recording so if somebody else is in the mood to watch TV your phooked.
