I have a bad feeling about tonight. Facing another AHL'er in goal, and Washington coming off a big win against Boston just yesterday. We come away with at least a point tonight....
- Cup Crazy '07

They are no match for Washington, 3rd string goalie or not. Remember the last game?
It sucks that everyone plays their starters against Edmonton and 3rd stringers against us.

I hate referring to it as getting screwed. If we had 80% odds of winning it and lost, that's one thing but the odds are unfavourable to begin with for any team.

Yep, I made that point as much as I could last year. "Best" odds are still horrible

emergency recall. Peters' injured. Holtby played yesterday. We seem to be playing a lot of teams who are in the middle of back-to-backs.

That ping pong ball could land anywhere. That's why we need to finish 30th.

We have the Islanders 1st pick Cabby - we would select both studs!
- Irish 14

The other 1st we have this year would go in the ROR deal.

I will predict at least 5 more years of total mediocrity if the Sabres do not finish 30th this season....... They need a franchise player plain and simple...

I'm almost surprised they're not going with Holtby anyway. He had a really long stretch of games earlier in the season with no nights off. Back to back or not.

Check PM Goose.

I guess the difference between us and Edmonton and Arizona is we get few shots on goal so they feel the 3rd stringers can handle it.

I've noticed that too! It does suck!

If we can't score we can't win, 30th here we come.

Went down to Erie yesterday to see McDavid. He scored 2 mins into the game. Kid is absolutely sick. Just watching highlights doesn't do him justice. You really have to see him in person to appreciate what he does.

I have a feeling we will see him......................on another team.

Well, Eichel's not too shabby. He's setting records at BU.

Very true. The game in Erie yesterday was sold out. I didn't think that happened in OHL games very often. But apparently when you have a kid like McDavid playing there it's quite a draw.

As anxious as I am, we still need to hold our composure and trust management to get the job done. I really do not see the Sabres winning another game either.

On the 26th, I will be witnessing the most pathetic display of hockey the nhl has to offer.

Really hope it doesn't come down to the second meeting against Arizona.

I had gone to Cleveland for the UB game Saturday night. I wanted to stop in Erie and watch the McDavid game on the way back, but I just couldn't make it work.

Reinhart's regular season ends this Sunday. Kootenay was 4-13 when Reinhart was sent back to Juniors. Their record now is 36-33 (simplified all losses into 1 category) and they've clinched a playoff spot (will be 7th or 8th seed, no chance for them to move up).

Reinhart has 18 Goals and 41 Assists in 44 games.

That's why you trade for ROR!

He'll look good in blue and gold.

He's been in a bit of a tailspin lately, hasn't gained a point in 3 of the last 4 games. I hope he starts next year in Rochester.

We ended up going because they exchanged our tickets from Feb 21st for us. We couldn't get there due to the weather. We had 2 extra though because 2 of the people that were supposed to go in Feb couldn't go yesterday.

Well, considering that Erie's colors are Blue, Gold and Red, it's not too hard to picture.

I was hoping that they wouldn't make the playoffs. I would have liked to see him go to Rochester for the end of this year just to see how he'd do there before next season even starts.
