They also had the luxury of a 28-year-old Marty Biron. If things went badly for Miller, Biron could play 5 in a row no problem

because he lost on the road to the leafs, and at home to the 2 teams that played for the cup last season while our pk sh!t the bed

got it

anderson got 6 cupcake teams on his 9 starts, 6k got 2 on his 6 starts
maybe the vet should be playing vs tampa, colorado and toronto


side note, we blew out columbus last night and 6k didn't cry after any of his starts

ALL of our 5 goalies that we have in the pipeline are shatty. Commie, UPL, Anderson, the anthem singer, Houser, ALL are crap.

We need to somehow get a capable starting NHL goalie, I whole heartedly believe that if we got a top 4 D-Man and a NHL caliber Goalie that can make the saves he is suppose to we are easily a playoff team.

No he couldn’t

Loved Marty but he was good for 3 or 4 and that 5th game was always a nightmare. He would laugh about it, even he knew lol

True, I just meant physically he was capable of playing 5 in a row. Andy, God love him, cannot do that

All you have to do is compare us and the Red Wings. We're better everywhere except one spot. Trade Husso and Comrie and keep them both healthy. We're in 2nd place to the Bruins and the Redwings are buried with Ottawa.

edit: 3rd behind Boston and Toronto.

if I am GMKA the one goalie I think I would target is Carter Hart, he is signed for this year and 2 more. IMO he needs a change of scenery. I would send Erik Portillo, Mitts and a 3rd for Carter.

With the Sabres committed to Comrie for 2 seasons, it's hard to see them making a move for a goalie this season unless someone suffers a season-ending injury.

Gotta hope that Comrie gets it together when he comes back or that UPL figures it out.

He's on a pitch count. That's not an excuse for the Sabres because they chose to employ a 41 year old, but they at least realize if they push Anderson too hard, it's gonna be Subban and UPL in Buffalo and ain't nobody got time for that
- Hank Balling

if 6k gets a win in his next start, it would be 9 points for the team in 7 games

which is approx. 106 points over an 82 game stretch

if comrie and anderson did not crap the bed over a 7 game stretch, we would be knocking on the door for a top 8 spot

instead we are 6 points out with the panther, bolts, caps, rangers and habs being the teams we need to leap frog

I agree you could tell Miller had something.. i don't see if from UPL, plus all the injuries and type of injuries worry me about him.

when will comrie be back?
