LET'S GO BUFFALO!

If we win, I'm so going down to Buffalo for Game 7.

Once again, powerplayer comes in and ruins our fun like a wet blanket.

Why are you being such a jerk? Read around the boards. There are comments similar to mine.

You don't find it frustrating that this team only decides to put the pedal to the metal this late in the game (meaning series)?

I have paid mucho $$$ to these guys over the years ($350 just tonight) so I have a right to fucking comment and vent frustration. Who are you to tell me what comments I'm allowed to make?

Whatever man.

It's true though, you do rain on people's parades more than anyone on here.. Plus the guy in your avatar looks like a total tool..

Guys, the Sabres just won a big game in great fashion and we're all Sabres fans here. No reason to snippy with each other when we should be enjoying this for the time being.

WHY oh WHY does this team have to have it's back up against a wall to play inspired hockey?

Why doesn't "just being in the playoffs" cause them to play with such energy and persistence?

So you didn't see them play all out in game 4 of this series when it was only a 2-1 decision?

You know Game three wasn't too bad either, they weren't playing like total shit and they weren't playing to try and give the ruins as many opportunities to score as possible either.

Game two they were inspired before Vanek went down and the second period at least.

This team is in a goalie battle in this series. They've been playing fine without their leading scorer in Vanek, but it hurts and they still can't play the same way as they did in game 1 without Vanek.

Even Washington has to play a bit different without Ovechkin. I mean this year they didn't rely on him as much because they played differently without him. the years before they played the same way without him and lost most of those games because they relied on him too much.

this is the ultimate test now. the garden isnt an easy place to play, but buffalo has to find the mojo. miller needs to be on his a+ game. rask, while stellar, looks ever so slightly more human. also, an extra day for vanek and hecht to get healthy. negative? savard is a maybe. just do it baby. the first mountain was climbed. now, we wait for monday. and we enjoy the win for tonight and tomorrow. sunday, get reved. get up. monday, pray. and if nothing else. if NOTHING else, the offseason was just shortened some more.

Lets go Sabres, you can get this one also. You're wearing them down and it looked it at points in this game. The longer it goes, the better for Buffalo still.

My avatar, FYI, is none other than Jocelyn Thibault. Remember? Former Sabre? It's amazing the shit that mods let others get away with saying to me, meanwhile I get warnings left and right for daring to hurt the feelings of some of the delicate little flowers on here.

Guys, the Sabres just won a big game in great fashion and we're all Sabres fans here. No reason to snippy with each other when we should be enjoying this for the time being.

You're discounting and disclaiming. What I have seen mostly this series is lots of turnovers, bad decisions lost leads and paid scorers not scoring much at all. In the first FOUR games, Boston led a combined total of 19 minutes, yet won 3 of the 4. I want you to think about that. Sorry if my commentary cannot be rosy. If the team is so capable of playing the way they did in game 5, why did they lose a 2-goal lead TWICE in 3 games---against the LOWEST scoring team in the league, no less? Why not play game 2 like it's game 5 and you're on the brink of elimiantion? Boston seemed to be playing that way since game 2. If the Sabres end up losing this series, I'd prefer that they go out NOT showing everybody how good they COULD HAVE BEEN. I get no satisfaction from that. That's the attitude of someone who readily accepts pernennial loss(a/k/a there's always an excuse). Wouldn't mind a cup sometime, but management has to stop talking themselves into the idea that the core of this team is good enough. It's not, goddammit, it's not.
