............ don't take this the wrong way.... are you a very very attractive female buffalo sabres fan? or do you just have big ?

Can't imagine that there would be too much love between buffalo and boston fans unless one of the 2 previous statements was true.

Really??? Pay him 7.1m to have a down year? How do you justify that?

the fans in my section were the nicest i have seen them at any game in my boston history.

the guys i met out at the bar later however, were not. got challenged to a fight by a guy claiming that 'seguin is the best player in the nhl' and 'the bruins have the best backup goalie in the league' (he was not happy when i replied with turco?), oh and my personal favorite 'tim thomas single handedly won the usa a silver medal 2 years ago'

yeah some were just really interested in why i am a sabres fan and if i was from buffalo and stuff like that, but most of them are just drunk douches. like these guys in front of me had about five beers each, pretty crazy considering the beers are like 7 bucks each.

The Sabres didn't choke last night. They lost to the defending champion Boston Bruins on their ice in a second game in two nights. Its happens. They choked earlier in the season losing games to Columbus, the Islanders, the Leafs. Those are games they should have won and points we should have had in our back pocket.

Besides getting into 8th on March 8th doesn't gaurentee you anything. You dont get a trophy for that.

- Buffalo--Sabres

They had two opportunities to grab 8th place and failed on both. I call that choking.

And I would argue Boos that the only style of hockey Lindy wants to coach or knows how to coach well is the hardest working team style.
He only played the ferrari style because he had little choice in the year after the lockout, with all the penalties being called and the flow of the game being supersonic.
Even during that year, there were stretches where he had the team playing his old style of hockey. He can't resist coaching that.

That leads to an idenitity problem overall for the team.

They built the roster with the thought of speed, skating, and skill.
Now the game has slowed down considerably and those are not nearly as important as being big, being a human roadblock, playing the cycle, playing the wall, etc.
That leaves the coach wanting to coach his old, favorite style of play with a team full of guys that are ill suited for that.

So either get a coach in that plays to the strength of the team or keep the coach and get rid of all the players that don't fit how he wants to coach.

They have been doing things halfway for years now, and that's the reason they have been the definition of mediocre.
