The first half of the game, they did play well. The 2nd half? Not so much. SJ outscored them 3-1 before the Sharks had to pull the G. The empty netter & final goal were not hard-fought.
The 2 points were critical, but I didn't see this as a test at all, given the fact that the Sharks were pretty clearly tired and slow. It seems that the last few seasons the Sabres caught them at the end of a road trip. That's a pattern worth keeping.
Typical.
When the Sabres lose, we hear how they're no good.
When the Sabres win, it's only because they got lucky, or the opponent had an off night, or they're on the end of a road trip and just tired.
Do you EVER give this team any credit at all? As Phil pointed out elsewhere, they're 9-4-2 since Nov 6th. The test? Did they win, or not?
(This is where you respond to say that you're not being critical, you're just telling it like it is. )
You have my sincerest apologies.
I forgot that only ONE type of opinion is allowed here and any descenting or critical opinion is not welcomed and the critic will be berated.
It would be a big help if you would change the rules to state that.
The rule would read:
"If the Sabres WIN, then all is great in paradise, as the cup will shortly be theirs. After a win, you're only allowed to blow smoke up their asses".
Okay?
Speaking of TYPICAL:
Please STOP trying to manage opinions. And DO note that I for one, DO NOT shit on them in GDT's when they fuck up OR rip them a new asshole after a game they lose. I state critiques without hyperbole. Keep that in mind next time. And do I eveer give them credit? Well, READ the post again. Notice where I said they played well in the first half of the game and got a critical 2 points. In this or another thread I mentioned how great Ennis is/will be. Sorry, not gushy enough?
Or would you prefer I be like many others and shit all over them when they're screwing up and blow smoke up their butts(no matter what) when they win?
Is that really what you wnat me to do?
