OFFICIAL '09-'10 BUFFALO SABRES SEASON THREAD

I’m well aware of the stats. You cant hold the 2 seaons side by side, the idiot coach of the flyers was juggaling goalies for half the season trying to see if Nitty could fill martys shoes after the season was over.

Have you ever played the game? (dont anwser I’m tired of you shitting up the thread with a pissing contest, when you’ve never had a good post Ever.) You try keeping momentum when the coach sits you randomly for no reason, and your getting zero help from shitty defense.

Back to the Russian debate, it seems like every russian is expected to be great. I remember a few years back watching a sabres game and generette or the other guy was talking about how exceptional Max was on his feet, but how he will never be a great because hes not a natural goal scorer.

Truth is, if he was he would be pretty sick, if his hands could only keep up with his feet.

If the penguins cry thier way to another cup I’m going to lose my mind, lets hope the Capitals get it this year tho, they need one.

Anyone have anything to say about Thomas? was last year just a good year, or do you see him stopping everything under the sun again?

Thoughts on emerys return, I personally think hes garbage too, but we shall see.

Buffalo needs to move vanek, too much of the cap is tied up in a 30 goal scorer who has been scared of the blue line since his jaw injury.

Beck, you see any last minute signing in the next day or 2 ?

where do u get a 20 goal scorer for vanek?? hes averages 40 goals a season? he is a huge contributor to us winning games regardless of how unorthodox some people think his scoring touch is.

it was supposed to say 30 :fail:

thomas is a great goaltender. he was a late bloomer career-wise, but he works his ass off and plays well

emery’s big problem is rebound control, but he did very well russia last year. i’m not expecting much, but we’ll see

Its to bad hes a consistent 40 goal scorer.It helps quite a bit when nobody else is even in the 30s

Just scored my home opener tickets, i forget the secion # but it’s by the blue line…between the players bench and the net where we shoot twice…10 rows from the ice :tup:

Stafford’s concussed, but he’s looking pretty good so far. Buffalo sending McCormick down is fucking stupid; why even sign the guy just to send him up to Portland?

gerbe and weber sent to portland. seems that kennedy and myers will stay

weber will make a german comeback, u’ll see

for those with Microsoft Outlook: http://sabres.nhl.com/club/page.htm?id=39503

:tup:

Weber has been fucking aweful in the preseason. You’re 22, dude, it’s time to step it up before you become a full time AHLer.

And I like the guy.

fuckin a i wanted to see gerbe play
