slow torture here.

 

[Fataldogg]

Lundqvist undefeated outdoor record will fall to lowly Sabers.

As bad as the Sabres are, our top forwards are not as good as theirs. That bothers me.

 

[trilobyte]

Go dirty boys (not Pierre dirty)

 

[I Eat Crow]

...and another two penalties on Buffalo missed. Trip at the blue line and a cross check in front.

 

[Kakko]

omg, shut the f*** up Milbury

 

[Doctyl]

Why the whistle?

 

[JT Kreider]

Lundqvist undefeated outdoor record will fall to lowly Sabers.

As bad as the Sabres are, our top forwards are not as good as theirs. That bothers me.

Nearly every teams top forwards are better than ours though.

Pretty much only Detroit, Montreal and Zona.

 

[nevesis]

Win this in OT. Nothing else.

 

[2Leetch_94]

Another overtime. If this gets to a shootout, someone kidnap Shattenkirk so AV can't use him.

 

[Loff]

This f***ing team.

 

[Ail]

Are you happy AV, you got your point you f***ing slug.

 

[Placid]

And we have overtime. Please win it...

 

[DanielBrassard]

Ive had enough of OT and SO.

 

[Irishguy42]

Splitting the OT into 2:30 both sides shows how comically short the OT period actually is.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Nearly every teams top forwards are better than ours though.

Pretty much only Detroit, Montreal and Zona.

Three teams that aren't going to sniff the playoffs.

 

[rangerlp]

If I was a conspiracy theorist, Buffalo wins this game and the Rangers win the next 2 games vs. Buffalo later in the season...

 

[RangerLifer]

We get at least a point. Don't deserve the second one but I'll love to take it.

 

[nevesis]

Ive had enough of OT and SO.

OT is fun, but shootouts are tired.

 

[NCRanger]

The officiating in this one has been atrocious.

 

[trilobyte]

Just get it done in OT. Shootout? No thanks

 

[Placid]

Why the whistle?

Just the ref who was a little "whistle happy" i think...Hank pretty much immediately played it to the corner, but no.

 

[Chimpradamus]

Agreed...Lehner's stats are phenomenal if you look closely at them. One a team like the Tampa, Lehner's stats would be as good if not better than Vasilevsky's. He's been really good this year but today he's upped the ante....he's been great.

And yes, I do notice quite a few goalies play great against us but I bet if you ask any fan base, they say the same **** that "so and so looks like Hasek vs us as per the norm"....lol

Yup, he's very underrated, he just plays for the Sabres. And yes, I do agree most fanbases say this. Especially the teams where their players are bad at putting in that extra finesse into the shot attempt. NHL goalies are simply too good to allow any standard shots. There's simply no room for players to deke their way out of a bathtub.

And now when penalties are starting to drop after the classic NHL charade of "calling it by the book", we're back to low scoring games soon enough the closer we get to the playoffs.

 

[Mordeth]

I feel like almost none of the lines work at the moment. Nash doesnt flow well with anyone either these days, he holds on to the puck way too much. Ruins any chance of generation anything with plays.

 

[DanielBrassard]

OT is fun, but shootouts are tired.

Agree, but we suck in OT

 

[Placid]

The hell kind of shot was that Skjei....lol
