[open thread] Sabres @ Stars

Time: 8:30 TV: MSG Radio: WGR55

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.

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

Third period

This is a a game they can win and they need it badly

yes

Wow, needed it, got it, man I miss Rick...I like Sylvester, but he just doesn't have it yet

by Fucilli5 on Jan 24, 2008 10:37 PM EST reply actions  

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.

Great

Another penalty!!

D.O. www.diebytheblade.com

by David Oleksy on Jan 24, 2008 10:50 PM EST reply actions  

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

by Fucilli5 on Jan 24, 2008 10:52 PM EST reply actions  

Finally

A win!!! A much needed win and overall a good game played against a very good team.
