What do I smell?
Maybe a two game winning streak?

Okay.
That is not what I smelled.

My prediction for tonight
Vanek stick handles through 5 Hurricanes on his way to score a spectacular highlight reel goal, he then throws his stick at the press box and yells “ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?! IS THE NOT WHY YOU ARE HERE!?”
Sabres play their hearts out because you don’t mess with ANGRY THOMAS VANEK.

There’s a few thousand people here, and everyone seems pretty excited. They’re rolling out the carpet for Doug Allen.

pretty good game so far. I’m happy, the van line is really moving well and getting chances, doesn’t look like carolina is doing any kind of job of checking them
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
Miller has been the Star so far. Sabres need to finish their chances or this game is going to get away from them like so many this year.

No…give me an actual Sabres network, not just one that the powers that be in NYC let us peons borrow on their sufferance.

Sabres are definitely 4th on the MSG’s NHL Agenda. Rangers, Devils, Islanders then the Sabres.

sabres, bandits, bisons, amerks, and bills if they could get em
and I wouldnt care if they filled the rest of the programming with old games, enforcers show, and infomercials
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
They could do.
Sabres hockey, Bills TV shows, Syracuse shows, AHL games with Roch and Binghamton, U of Albany, Siena, Niagara, UB…
They really would have a lot of options
Screw you MSG, and screw you TWC!
I want my Sabres!
damn yeah thats so right,
I totally forgot about all the college games. that would be great to have coverage of them all, Id have so much more sports to watch
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
They could defintely fit the schedule.
Just make sure Sabres games are the “Main Attraction” and sprinkle in everything else.
Im sure it could work

forgot about the ECHL and the Elmira Jackals. Also include all the highschool sports,
I remember watching the Thurman Thomas Show and shows like that growing up. They could definitely do stuff like that.

thats what goose does
if he could get even just 15 goals a year Id love him, but I’m kinda tired of him. yeah the face offs are huge, hes great on that but omg could he put it in the net? hes got so many opportunities that an empty jersey should be able to put in. How can he never bury the chances he gets?
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
do you guys like kevin sylvester?
I do. I enjoy hearing him, obviously he isn’t rick, but I’m comparing him more to Harry Neale who I kinda detest. Good commentary tonight, I’m happy with this pair
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
Hes better than Ricks son.
Plus hes a familiar voice, I think he’ll be the eventual replacement
Screw you MSG, and screw you TWC!

But if somehow we got Gary Thorne
Id absolutely love that

They didn’t even conjecture what might be the real reason the NHLPA rejected it…that the realignment is institutionally biased to favor the two seven-team conferences and is therefore competitively imbalanced.

I'd heard that argument, I just didnt realize
that it was a big enough concern for them to try to scuttle it. hey, all the power to them, I don’t think the NHL should be allowed to steamroll dissent, they have valid concerns and they need to be heard and addressed

thanks. he seems like a decent player.
what do you think about him? and on a diff note do you agree about roy being cancer? ive heard a fair amount of people say as much, including some who know most of the team, that roy is not well liked and has a negative impact on the team. No first hand knowledge of this myself so I dunno, I can’t say hes bad for the chemistry, but on the ice he looks crappy.
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
I really like Chewie’s energy. Did a real nice job filling it at Center. I’d much rather him up with the big club than Matt Ellis as I believe Chewie can create more offensively.
The Roy thing.. Um.. I try not to speculate about things we have no idea about. I wouldn’t miss Roy, with his current production, if he was to be dealt though. That’s saying a lot as I really liked Roy his first few seasons in the league.

refs are absolue garbage
how many calls have they missed? like wtf, teh refing is so bush league in the nhl. torts spoke the truth and they tried to silence him with a 30k fine, what a joke
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
wow thanks refs.
might as well just put some zebras on skates, they’d drop less shit on the ice than these clowns
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
Fuck.

anyway, 6 mins to make this happen.
we can do this. if miller keeps them from scoring again we should be fine, we can score one more goal. would e great if myers got it, or van (with the winning goal in ot for the hat trick)
"I get inspired by the blunts too."

"I get inspired by the blunts too."

lots of it. even some heavy duty pain killers won't
dull the pain of seeing yet another chance at back to back wins slip by. what the fuck do we have to do to string two wins together?
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
well it isnt playing the worst team in the east
by thekillercarlson on Jan 6, 2012 9:30 PM EST up reply actions
lol sadly not. you'd think that would be a good solution
for us to even have a chance at making the playoffs, let alone being competitive, we have to win at least 2 games for every one we lose. I dunno if even that is good enough, but thats the minimum at least. Just not gonna cut it otherwise
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
the officials didnt fuck the whole game for us, but it sure seems like they tried to
at least vanek and poms each got more goals, can always feel good about that
"I get inspired by the blunts too."
so should we just decide to bomb the rest of the season
and go for a lottery pick? I’d kind of rather do that than just drift through the rest of the season coming almost close to being almost good. Even if we make the playoffs, does anyone see the team we have right now going anywhere but out after the first round?

at the game
I will put more in a post tomorrow but watching this team live you see a lot more than tv. All I can say is they have a long way to go if they even want to think about the playoffs this year. They were thoroughly outclassed tonight by the canes in every phase of the game.

I love WGR post-game.
I can’t wait for the day that the intro music ends, and Kozial just blows his brains out all over the microphone.

That’s OK, in Rochester it goes immediately to music on 96.5.
