~*OFFICIAL Buffalo Sabres Thread*~

we def put up a fight, and despite losing tonight, sent a loud message to the rest of the league’s teams that are as good or better than us…

we will NOT go quietly!

Carolina as a team is really fast AND everyone hits, which = a major problem for the Sabres.

Even after 3 losses… I’m defiantely not worried. We showed (even though it was to little to late) that we can do pretty damn well if we wanted to… 3 goals in 1 period, multiple posts for Vanek… lots of pressure the rest of the 3rd period.

I can’t wait for the next game! Tomorrow’s game versus Ottawa should be a greeat one.

i agree with that first statement, but not so much with the 2nd. gerber is not a bad goalie. no, he’s not a superstar, but he’s def good enough to take a team to the finals. an on this team, the goalie doesn’t need to be the “center of attention”

yea gerber is a pretty good goalie. he’s part of the reason why they’re doing so good this year.

meh, i personally dont think hes that good…i thought he looked quite poor at parts during the buffalo game and was just lucky…

granted you have to have some talent to win 33 games and have a sub 3.00 GAA…but thats just IMHO…i do NOT think he has what it takes to lead a team to the cup and i think he’ll wilt under the pressure like he did in the 3rd period…

I’m just happy that we finally put a respectable number of shots on goal. The Ottawa and Atlanta games were rediculous.

Arena was loud after the third goal and the big hit!! Loudest its been all year. We took it to them in the third!!

Agreed… that third period was our best hockey this year IMHO.

im sure carolina was thinking the same thing about our team when we played them then huh

probably

we fell asleep in the 2nd and they scored 4 goals…one of the four was a “good” goal, the other three we turned it over in either our own zone or in our own crease (fucking tallinder) and gave it to them…i guess they “got lucky” then…

they fell asleep in the 3rd, we beat the shit out of them. how many shots did gerber face in the first two periods?

all comes down to a previous post of mine…they played better in 20 minutes than we did the other 40

shit man, even jeanerrett said the post had more saves than gerber in the first…

:lol: I remember that…

I feel bad for anyone at tonights game having to watch this!

2-0…great start…sigh

they better get their shit together and win tonight. losing 4 in a row would suck =/

cuts the lead in half :slight_smile:

edit SCOOOORRRRRREEEE!!! 2-2

FUCK NO!!! WHAT THE FUCK!!! The original ref was on top of the puck and called it a goal… omg I hate refs… what a FUCKING douchebag!

that was horse shit
they’re playing well though

:word:

EDIT fuckin’ a
