Boyes is our ONLY shootout shooter right now that Vanek is out.

It was one hell of a game. I was sure if we pulled out the win, the roof would have blown clean off the FNC. Still, 1 pt closer and I'm digging this team as opposed to the one that started that road trip. Keep it up, guys!

Pominville hasn't been that bad this year.

yeah, the call on Ennis was major bullshit. That was a good solid hockey hit. Girardi's back wasn't even exposed on contact

3 pipes say differently. When the chips are down, where is he? Can't wait until he's gone. He's just pretty useless unless they start calling penalties that will open up the ice.

Its time for we as fans of the Sabres and the Bills to focus on results. I don't care anymore how good someone is in theory or in history....what have you done for me in the present.

5 PPs, no goals.

I thought you meant in terms of shootout shooters

Thats true. So when TV is back they should automatically start Boyes, TV, Pommers in the SO :D

Sorry wasn't clear. Just really bummed as other teams have players they can depend on to make plays. I live in Boston, MA, and its like a different player every night. Here...we have guys like Roy and Boyes and Stafford who fail more than succeed.

I'm really, really disappointed that Ruff didn't give Roy a chance in the shootout. When a guy fucks up... when one of the guys you rely on to score fucks up... you give him a shot at redemption.

He was sitting on that bench during the shootout praying for Ruff to tap him on the shoulder. I think it was a big mistake not letting him go.

+1... Roy instead of Leino.... I still liked Gerbe, Boyes, Pommers.... Roy should have been the 4th shooter...

Lindy hasn't made good decision during shootouts all season. With him being such a huge disappointment this season I have no issues letting him sit there. If he proved he could score a little more then I would be more upset about it. I would feel the same way about Boyes if he wasn't a more proven shootout goal scorer.

Plus Roy really kinda sucks at shootouts.... He averages about 20% a season in SO's

No, roy should have won the game for us, negating the need for a shootout. Dude isnt focused, he needs to gtfo imo.

How do you know redemption wasn't being given to Leino for, you know, eating bags upon bags of dick the first half of the season?

True true. And he had a solid move. It was just a few inches from hitting the five hole... Oh. Well best game this season so far. Keep it rolling ...

you know, loss aside I really enjoyed that game. It felt good to be excited and actually give a shit about a Sabres game. That was some seriously good hockey from both teams.
