Ryan Miller passes the time in his crease by doing Pilates.

Happy Friday everyone! It's the dog days of winter, apparently, with multiple starters ending up in coach Ruff's doghouse over the last few games. Toni Lydman was "furious" about being a healthy scratch, so hopefully that will translate on the ice. A few days ago, I was "furious" that we ran out of Cinnamon Life for breakfast, but it didn't mean I worked any harder that day. Let's hope Mr. Lydman eats his Cinnamon Life this morning.

Scratch has Lydman in a sniff - The Buffalo News
My favorite quote in this article: "You could see he was furious at being a healthy scratch for the first time as a member of the Buffalo Sabres." Maybe there's something to Rafal's magic doghouse theory....

Connolly not concerned that the streak is over - WGR 550
Although I was sad to see Tim Connolly's 16 game point streak come to an end, I loved the fact that it wasn't an 18-points-in-16-games streak, but that he scored 25 in those 16 games. Let's start another one tonight.

Loser point has run its course - The Hockey News
I agree, agree, and agree with this article - especially the last point.

Cold War Part II coming this Dec. 11 at the Big House.

The Pensblog Guide To Hockey Fans - Pensblog
An exhaustive and funny guide on how to identify hockey's most annoying fans - from the "Crosby sucks" guy to the "Gotta make a trade" guy and everything in between. Well worth your time but it is really really long.

Ottawa won again

Against the Pens in Pittsburgh, no less. This is getting a little scary.

Loved reading that hockey fan guide! Living in the Baltimore-DC metro area, I totally concur with the assessment of Caps bandwagoners. They seriously do not understand things like delayed penalties, clearing the puck on the PK, icing, etc. My usual comeback is, “Hey, remember the lockout? Didn’t think so.”

haha

That was a good read. Pretty funny… and when I started reading the “Puck Bunny” section, I had a weird feeling they were going to show some Buffalo girls. They are always down there and MSG seems to display them nightly.

Big game tonight!!!

“You could see he was furious at being a healthy scratch for the first time as a member of the Buffalo Sabres.”

Any word what the scratches are going to look like for tonight game? I cant imagine Lindy would leave Lydman out again, with him being the vet. But you never know. And I hope you were wrong DO about MacArthur… I dont want to have to buy another jersey haha. ~~Shannon~~, yes Darryl Shannon… Dont ask me why but when I was a kid he was my favorite player. I never had a real reason for it, but one X-Mas I opened up a #8 Sabres jersey. My dad put my last name on it, but the number was for him… ~~Drury~~, MacArthur.
