So if Detroit wins, they will set a franchise record for their 15th home win in a row. Exactly what we need.

Weve lost 11 straight at Detroit,

Is that right tho?
Didnt we beat them in a SO when Hasek was their goalie. 06-07 I think… no way weve played there 11 times since. Unless he meant 11 straight overall

I think I figured out why Detroit is so good at home. Leino hauled down at one end, no call. Other end, hook called immediately.

If you were shooting on Ryan Miller, would you go glove side high?
Or glove side high?
If I had a choice, it would be glove side high. Worst case scenario is blocker high.

Hey krytime.
We used the Al Fresco chicked sausage recipe from their site, but the GF added a little more tomato sauce and instead of hot sauce, she used wing sauce, also added a little more of that.
http://www.alfrescoallnatural.com/RecipeDetails.aspx?ID=83
I hate that I love Buffalo.
What wing sauce you use? I always use Anchor Bar wing sauce for my chicken wing dip…even the mild has a bite, but I love it.
"We’re gonna win the Stanley Cup. Then, you know what, we’re gonna win it again,"
-Terry Pegula
Used a local wing places, Alligers House of Wings, down in Sayre, PA.
But Im sure Anchor Bars will be awesome in it too
I hate that I love Buffalo.
What flavor? I wouldn’t mind trying other brands.
"We’re gonna win the Stanley Cup. Then, you know what, we’re gonna win it again,"
-Terry Pegula
We used the Southwestern style sauce
Its got a kick to it, its basically like medium with a bit more zest
I hate that I love Buffalo.
Damn.
I want some of that on some chicken wings now.
"We’re gonna win the Stanley Cup. Then, you know what, we’re gonna win it again,"
-Terry Pegula
Haha, yeah its pretty good.
I usually get a dozen hot and she gets a dozen Southwestern from this place, and Im a traditional “Hot or Medium” guy, none of this garlis parm, bbq or honey mustard wings… but the SW is good stuff
I hate that I love Buffalo.
Thanks!! I’m definitely going to use this recipe next time around. Have used chicken thighs in the past; never chicken sausage.
Yeah its the Buffalo Chicken Sausage, we grill them up at Bills games too.
But theyre pretty good in this too
I hate that I love Buffalo.
He said he was sitting behind the net…I forgot which side.
"We’re gonna win the Stanley Cup. Then, you know what, we’re gonna win it again,"
-Terry Pegula
I was in the 2nd row corner to the left of Howard (1st and 3rd). 99% of the Red Wings fans were respectful of me and the dozen other blue jerseys around, but there were a few typical d-bags talking shit to me and flipping me off or shoving me in the concourse. And all the way to the parking garage I was reminded by about 50 people how much my team sucks. All I could say was “Yes, I’m not blind. I know they suck.” Fucking spoiled-ass Wings fans wouldn’t understand what it means to be from Buffalo.
At least Enroth had a good game… right?
He made some good saves, but the Red Wings seemed to pop it back into 2nd gear for the rest of the game and cruise on to victory. I do not blame them; if you can get away with 100% effort for 25 minutes and then you can do 50% for the rest., why bury the team that night? It is a long season….they should save their energy for their playoff run.

Myers talking about getting away from "The System"
Myers, tell your buddies out there to screw the system, the system hasnt done shit this year, and you guys are on your way to extending the franchise long 8 game losing streak
I hate that I love Buffalo.
Maybe it’s the system that isn’t working. Maybe they should just play the game with the intensity and tenacity and drive the net and play hard in the dirty areas and say the hell with playing within a predetermined system.

I hate "The System"
I completely agree… hell nothing else has worked,
too quote Mighty Ducks 2, “Play a little school-yard puck.”
I hate that I love Buffalo.
Ryan Miller...
Is not the Goaltender that he was in past seasons.
His numbers, and I won’t quote them cuz I’ll upchuck in my mouth, are not the numbers of a starting goaltender who wants to keep his spot.
They are the numbers of a bushleague tender who doesn’t have the supposed talent that the Ryan Miller of old did at one time.
I am absolutely tired of watching this team provide thier opponents with free chances by turning the puck over 10 plus times a game.
This team has no chemistry. No dependable goaltending. No heart to grind it out deep into the game.
As far as I am concerned, I am embarressed by them. I burned my Miller Jersey tonight, and I won’t watch another game until they either trade him, bench him, or ship him to Rochester.
Fuck Ryan “Soft Goal Expert” Miller.
Where to find answers
At this point, despite injuries, you have to look at leadership of this team. It is just not happening. Look what a coaching change did for the Rangers.
By the way, saw Craig Rivet playing 2 leagues below the NHL for Elmira in the ECHL. At first I thought it was pathetic, then I admired him for loving a game so much, that he would play his heart out in front of 4,000 fans when he used to be a big star for Montreal. He is not the captain but “directs” everything on his shift—the team is in first place.
And just to add.
No way hes playing in front of 4000, I live near Elmira, and work in that “City” … no one goes to those games, they give out free tickets at local banks and stores.
But yes you are correct, as bad of a player he was and we all ran him out of town, hes a real LEADER
I hate that I love Buffalo.
Don't now if they're free
If tickets are free, where can I get them? I live near Elmira as well.
When I went, it was sold out and I got shitty seats. There were 4,000 and it was a good game. Better than the one we are watching now.
Did you go this year?
I know they pack them in for the playoffs, maybe theyre selling better now, I think theyre in 1st place?
But Ive seen signs at Chemung Canal in Elmira and the Wilson Farms around the corner from the arena
I hate that I love Buffalo.
Better this year
I am a Sabres fanatic and drive 3 hours to see some often disappointing games. Closer to home is Cornell, Syracuse and Binghamton. The Senators won the AHL last season and we saw every playoff game. This year – it is the Jackals of Elmira that look serious about winning a cup.
I was at one of the Pirates/ BSens playoff games last year.
Portland won with 12 seconds left. Kassians first Pro game. I wore my Sabres stuff and saw a bunch of Sabres fans too. Probably ran into you, haha
I hate that I love Buffalo.
Its crazy we're probably the laughing stock of the East/league.
We do all this spending in the offseason. Bring in the pieces that we need. The owner is a baller, hes going door to door with players handing out tickets. The whole Blue and Gold fanbase was jacked up this October… and now were sitting in 11th-12th, well on our way to another loss, and are 1-6 vs the 3 teams below us.
I think it finally just hit me, were not good.
I hate that I love Buffalo.

I am not expecting anything major to be honest….but I do not fault the off-season decisions our FO made. Connolly, Montador, Butler out with Leino, Ehrhoff, and Regehr in should make the team better…..this season is just a damn trainwreck.

We have had luck with the Islanders in the past. They always need money. Tavares or Moulson would be good gets.
You’re crazy if you think the Islanders would part with Johnny T.

Tavares was a #1 overall pick and was just locked up long term. He’s not being moved or shopped any time soon.

Miller needs to go, period.
a. He is overrated by any analysis. He had ONE outstanding year. Other than ONE year his best save percentage was .918. So his second best year in terms of SP would put him ranked at 17 this year. There are handfuls of goalies that are better.
b. Enroth gives us a better chance to win and he has respectable numbers this year
c. Miller’s salary is enough to pay an actual great NHL player
d. He’s a diva, if he isn’t he #1 he’ll throw a pity party

Just saw a bunch of penalties on the Yahoo summary .....
A fight? Not that there is much point in one with this score.
A fight would imply that the team had a scrap of pride and passion left. /cynical me/
I could be wrong…I don’t have the game on TV or the radio, but are we playing with any heart?

I lost a little respect for him after his column that stated our struggling players have no value whatsoever.

Certainly lost any credibility he had after that article. Funny that a couple days later Cammalleri gets traded and he has a higher cap number than the players on Buffalo.

Obviously didn’t miss much, but this reminds me of the game where we beat Washington pretty badly this season, and Boudreau was fired the next day. Hrm….anyone see that change coming soon?

I've been watching the Sabres exclusively for so long...
that I forgot what good hockey looked like. Thanks Detroit for the reminder, esp. the pass from Datsyuk in the first and the goal from Bertuzzi. What a joke. Blow it up and start again.

Shea Weber, then we would be winning games.
Right now he’s 1/32nd of Shea Weber. This is just terrible!

hey, just trying to look for positives here. : )
But yes, although I’m sure Detroit laid off a bit, professional athletes always compete hard when they play, and always look to score, so it’s not like Enroth’s play meant nothing either

If not what happened to put him on a 4th line?
Kind of hard to do anything when you don’t get the minutes.
Seriously if they don’t want to use him, Send him to Rochester so he can develop.

Embarrassing
Like it or not, Ryan Miller, once the heart and soul of our beloved Sabres, is no longer interested in bringing a Stanley Cup to Buffalo, New York. It’s time for him to go. It may not be the most logical looking move, but it’s in the team’s better interest. In the same vein, Drew Stafford is no longer interested in driving the net. He can go, too. Derrick Roy, known league-wide for his crybaby ways, should be gone. He does not reflect the product we should be displaying on the ice. Package them and send ‘em off. Thing is, there really isn’t a culture of winning associated with Buffalo, hockey or otherwise. I wouldn’t want to play there unless I was Matt Ellis and I could commute to and from Welland, Ontario and collect a decent paycheck. Who else? Darcy Regier: Gone. If Pegula were smart he’d make it happen tomorrow morning. He’s losing the fan base and all the hype he brought in. Likely losing cash as well … Where’s Kassian? Foligno? Poor Vanek. Gaustad = Gone. Boyes = Gone. This organization is in serious trouble. Anyone got Pegula’s contact info?

Never saw that show (Reno 911). The 2 prisoners that came back so far killed at least 10 people but were recaptured and placed in a modern high security super-secret location prison.
Surprise twist – the (Detective Rebecca Madsen/actress Sarah Jones) hot cop’s grandfather, whom she always thought was an Alcatraz guard, was one of the prisoners, and killed her SFPD partner in the premiere opening scenes.
The good guys are a secret force. Not FBI or CIA but they are Feds.
