Mercifully it is the last and final game before the All Star break. The Sabres are in desperate need of a victory to gain some momentum before the break. The Sabres only victory in the last 13 games came last Friday against Atlanta.

Tonight is the night
They have to break out tonight. Another loss here just strings this thing on even longer with the All Star break this weekend.
Terrible
I guess now we can say his value goes down game by game

Lately
I'm sorry, I hate ragging on players too, but yes, this team has been awful to watch lately, except for the game against Atlanta, that was a blast, but I dont get the 10 in one game, then 1 against Toronto, 2 against Phoenix, 1 tonight....and as always, there have been oppurtunities
Sylvester
Yeah, I agree he isn't Rick but I think he could be pretty good with some work.

Goal
Yeah we certainly needed that goal. I'm not satisfied yet though. They need another one to win this game.

Yeah
I wouldn't be surprised if we needed two more to shut this game down. Seems like it has been hard to hold games down this year. Probably in my mind though.
Roy-Vanek-Stafford
That line has been really good tonight. I know they have the two goals so it's easy to say but they have been pretty good all night.
yeah
I've really liked Vanek ever since he was a rookie...I wish he could get out of this funk he has been in, pucks bouncing off the stick, hitting posts, crossbars, missing the net, hopefully they get hot....could use Connolly and Max back as well, take some pressure off
Finally
A win!!! A much needed win and overall a good game played against a very good team.
