we are all NHL hockey player quality analysts so why not... I even believe we have a few "in-between" NHL coaches in here too...
we are so blessed to have everyone's expert opinions. - MillerTime3011
So we can't talk about who played good or bad because it's only 1 game. Gotcha.
New topics:
1. The hotdog and chips deal for $3.
2. Did you see all the balloons they hung up all over the arena? Sick!
3. Having a small receipt with your numbers printed on it is not as exciting as having a stack of raffle tickets.
4. The trainers really looked sharp during introductions.
5. Doug Allen got a bigger ovation than Vanek.
6. The blue pom-poms were a big fail. The gold ones stood out a lot more.
7. Grigorenko's iPod.
8. GARTH's grammer/spelling/homerism/YouTube videos.
9. Max Webster.
10. You can't leave the arena for a smoke at intermission anymore. |

Why don't you just purchase a customizable one and put his name and number on it? - MillerTime3011
I might just trying to find one first. |

OK... sorry so late, but I was unable to watch, but looking at the box score it appeared that the Sabres were VERY undisciplined. Sooo many penalties. Was it legit, or bad calls? |

Scott needs to play more however Lindy does not agree. - SABRES 89
Scott was perfectly fine in his limited role....
He gave Foligno, Ott, and Kaleta free reign to play as the hard nosed players they are. |

Yeah i'm good with Scott not seeing quality ice time lol. But I need him more on the bench in the penalty box, not our team bench! |

2 penalties that the league wants to focus on were called. Interference and embellishment, both on the Sabres. They were the kind of penalties that won't get called in the playoffs. |

Mike Kostka made the Maple Leafs....
Anyone remember him?? He was a Sabres prospect with Portland. I think he was solid and possibly blew his knee out. He is 27 now and made the Leafs. Good story for a former Sabres draft pick. |

tripping got called yesterday more than I've seen recently... it was the first game of the year... everyone seems to be getting a lot of penalties.
I'm not too worried about that. |

I think he is under the weather
He has been too nice lately - homiedclown
He's definitely not on his game yet and it's understandable. It was a short camp and no preseason. It may take a few games to shake off the rust from the lockout. |

I saw him out there jawing and throwing some body around... after one whistle in the 2nd period I think it was.. a guy actually shoved him back but that was the end of it. |

It happens every year. They decide to crack down on certain things and call them like crazy to start the season. Gradually everything goes back to normal. |

Actually he was a undrafted free agent. I just did the research. Sabres groomed him for about 3 years before they let him go. |

Yup... seeing Ott get called for "diving" was a surprise to me... I don't think I have seen many games with 3 Goalie Interferences in it in a long time.. |

Biggest complaint from Blackhawks and Rags fans. He's a destroyer ('89 bait) and everyone knows it. Guys won't drop gloves with him, and he can't catch them to force the issue. As long as he isn't in the lineup for every game I'm ok with it. |

oh god no.. he won't be. With Leino down on top of Gerbe and McM that might push him and his 2 minutes of TOI.. but I think he only suits up for...
Philly, Boston, and NYR for sure...
maybe.. Sens, Habs, and Leafs just for rivalries sake...
Wsh, NJD, Pitt, WPG, Car, FLA, and NYI... who knows... maybe NYI and NJD.. or perhaps Fla with Parros now.. |

Second game on back to backs make me worrisome.. but they are barely "traveling" for this game so that makes me feel better... and they get a full 24 hours between games helps..
I think we see a switch in the lineup with maybe Brennan or Weber..
No word on Leino from anyone??? |

lol oh I did forget Tampa... I don't think they have any big fighters that our regulars couldn't handle... NJD has Janssen who Scott has history with.. Carolina now has Westgarth who Scott also has history with... |
