Buffalo Sabres

lol.

about 5 minutes after I posted that, Niedermayer scored his 1st of the season.

Break The Sky

Yeah, I was pretty stunned about that. I think I said something along the lines of, "If a tree falls in the forest and everyone is there to watch it fall, did anyone see Niedermayer actually score a goal?"

I don't know how much you follow the Portland Pirates, Mayday, but I keep pretty good track of them as well. Mancari has the hardest shot in the AHL, and would have one of the hardest shots in the NHL if he had a chance to stay up here. He's a very Gaustad like player, and I would love to see them work together on a line sometime this season. Cody McCormick has become a staple since he's earned a permanent spot on the team and I think Mancari will do the same. However, there was a point in the game where he was on the bench and they zoomed in on him, and NIckleback was playing in the arena, and he was mouthing the words, so I guess that dampens my enthusiasm for him just a bit. Other than that he's still one of my favorite Sabres-to-be.

Also, I managed to get this stunning photo of Montador out of the game last night. I think I'm going to have it developed and ask him to autograph it at the red carpet signing next season.

Since Pegula has taken over the Sabres have come out of each game with at least a point.

Pretty crazy to not believe that something as high up as ownership has an effect on the players.

#7 in your playbooks, #1 in your hearts.

We will miss you dearly Ricky.

I would take on anyone in the playoffs right now. I'm not saying that because we beat Ottawa, I'm saying that because it seems like this team feels like a team. These guys seem ready to do anything for anyone else on the team.

I haven't been this happy about hockey in a very long time.

Break The Sky

I fucking love this team

Really big day tonight in terms of the Sabre's fate being decided. If Ottawa can beat Carolina and we can beat Montreal, it might be the final nail in the Hurricane's coffin.

There's this website I've been keeping tabs on called Sports Club Stats http://www.sportsclubstats.com/NHL.html that shows what your teams statistical percentage is for making the playoffs. Right now the Sabres are at 75% to make the playoffs, but if we win tonight and Carolina loses, I think it gets pushed up somewhere around 90%.

It's a really cool website, so if you haven't checked it out before Mayday, you really should.

Here's to wishful thinking.

I would just like to put out there I have been the owner of a Jhonas Enroth Portland Pirates hoodie for about two years now. If he isn't splitting games 60/40 with Miller next year, something is wrong. This kid has NHL written all over him!

It is nice, the Sabres can also have this turn sour real quick.

If they beat Carolina this weekend, you can schedule the parade (the one they throw for the teams who make the playoffs).

'looking at the remaining schedule, and how Carolina has looked (especially against Buffalo), Im not too overconfident. They have put themselves in an amazing position especially with where they stood at Christmastime.... but they need to close it.

Eddie Olczyk predicted that whoever wins the game on Sunday will make the playoffs. I disagree, mostly upon the grounds that Eddie Olczyk is a complete moron. If you get to 93 points, you're everything but an absolute lock to make the playoffs. I don't like how we have a back to back this weekend against teams we haven't fared too well against this season, but i'm optimistic. If we can win one of the two, it should be good enough. If we win both, we've successfully taken the pressure off of us and put it back on the other teams. Every point counts, but these games we need 2 points out of every game. Losing in overtime just won't cut it.

I know i've said it before, but this website is great for seeing how our chances change with every single game: http://www.sportsclubstats.com/NHL.html

Without sounding stalkerish, someone with the name timconnolly just joined the 10C on April 2nd at 1am. What do you think the odds are that the Sabres Tim Connolly just joined?

Somewhere, this man is crying right now.

Good riddance Canes. . . I'll never forget how arrogant, vulgar, and obnoxious their fans were during the '06 Eastern finals.

Hope they enjoy hitting the links.

A Detroit win tomorrow gets us into the playoffs. I'm a very big wings fan right now.

Why thank you! However we haven't won anything yet, nor will we most likely. . . this year.

But how cool would it be if we did?
