but I don’t think hes anywhere near worth it right now. rene is a reasonable cap hit, but ive heard bad things about him, and hes kinda one dimensional, but if you need a power forward, one could do worse

He really needs to start burying those – seems to get a chance like that almost every game.

Funky rebound of the end boards and Tavares all alone in front.

"I get inspired by the blunts too."

good job breaking the play up. enroth deserves a win, hes played great in his last 3 games, about time the team helps him out
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
Good pass by Leino
But damn, he needs to start scoring himself.

Great defensive play by Finley

Ryan Miller was the true MVP. See my profile for rant.

kinda so-so
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
Gerbe vs Jurcina
Honey badger don’t give a fuck.

I know its easy to cry about the refs, but the reffing has been such bull shit for so long in this league, and with the amount of non-calls the sabres have had this season, it does kind of feel like there’s some kind of concerted effort to screw us. as if our injury bug and play wasn’t bad enough on its own (though things have been looking kind of up lately)
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
Kaleta had his stick held so long he better have a new autograph on it when he got it back.

yeah a lot of these no-calls were directly in front of the refs
no way they didnt see them, so Im really starting to think that its on purpose
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
Shit.

That was bound to happen with how we are playing.

STOP PULLING THE GOALIE

by BillsThickNThin on Jan 14, 2012 9:32 PM EST reply actions
if they dont pull the goalie, we wont have a chance anyway
its always a desperation move. doubt it works for anyone even 1/3 of the time
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
Fuck this game. Fuck this Shit. I’m so fucking sick of losing.

Gotta have some typical Sabres fans in here to balance out the good ones, I guess.
Enjoys long walks on the beach, Molson Canadian, and making the playoffs.
cool. at least you'll get to see one team play good for sure
and a really, really good fucking team at that
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
I'll be wearing my Vanek jersey,
so when the Red Wings inevitably dominate us I’ll probably just have to deal with a bunch of assholes rubbing it in… Red Wings fans are not particularly graceful, unfortunately.
At least you won’t get punched in the back of the head while trying to get food.
Enjoys long walks on the beach, Molson Canadian, and making the playoffs.
ok, didn't realize thats what you meant.
thats crappy, should be able to feel comfortable at a game. and especially when you’re at an away game in a diff conference, youd think the home teams fans wouldnt be as bloodthirsty. couldnt imagine what theyd do if you were wearing a hawks jersey
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
eh, are we anymore graceful?
kinda thinking of that “toronto sucks” jersey
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
hopefully watching the pats wreck tebow will cheer my spirits some
till i fade away into nothingness
