GDT: #46 | Sabres @ Penguins | April 23, 2013 | Second Battle of Consol Energy Edition

[Ray Shero*]

Ahhhh, nice streak we had going I guess.

 

[Allie Kitsune]

This Team Is Special.

 

[jerome garcia]

oh well, didnt get any bounces whatsoever this game.

 

[Gold Diamond]

Jeffrey makes up for his great game yesterday by ****ing the bed in this one. That's on him.

 

[DoktorZaius]

Sabres = streakbusters. The joke's on them, they're just making their lottery pick worse.

That's true, they're probably not even going to end up with a top 10 pick. If they lost both of their games to us? Maybe they're cracking top 10 land. Why Buffalo, WHY!?!?!?

 

[SEALBound]

I don't blame anyone really for this loss...what more could they have done?

 

[vodeni]

so I guess good news we don't have to play sabres in the playoffs

 

[mr sidney crosby]

Did good tonight, prob woulda scored 7 with a healthy lineup

 

[domaug*]

lousy result, oh well. didn't affect anything except Buffalo's chances at a great pick.

 

[Ugene Magic]

I'm not even mad.

 

[Dying Alive]

Not even mad about the loss. Mad that my delicious pizza streak is ruined.

You know you're spoiled when your team losing feels surreal.

Edit: But hey, the Pirates won!

 

[Ogrezilla]

an easy, textbook dump of the puck

but ya, huge game by Miller.

 

[MtlPenFan]

I don't blame anyone really for this loss...what more could they have done?

Yeah I'm having a ton of trouble blaming anyone. Fleury for ducking maybe. Found that odd, but still. Duper and Letang could have had 3 goals each. Oh well.

 

[Pens1566]

There's no way that was a good goal. None.

 

[Allie Kitsune]

Kind of, but despite the game being meaningless, it still kind of feels like the same old "play to the level of competition", where they're bringing it against good teams, and just kind of hanging around and then trailing off against bad teams.

 

[jerome garcia]

miller stole this one, we shoulda had five or six goals

 

[metalan2]

Pens dominated pretty badly.

 

[AjaxTelamon]

100% on him, terrible play at the end of a shift. He'll be sitting next game.

 

[Ugene Magic]

There's no way that was a good goal. None.

Meaningless game point wise.

 

[Tender Rip]

Wow, that was annoying. Massive mistake from Eaton on the 2-3 goal and just stupid by Letang on the 2-4.

Creeping terror that Bylsma would go with Dupuis with Malkin-Iginla rather than play Kunitz there when Dupuis has been so good with either of the Morrow, Jokinen, Sutter guys, but of course Dupuis could have scored three or four today.

Suppose we just gotta chalk it up to 'one of those things', because we could have easily won this. But Buffalo plays us well, and generally prevents our breakouts well.

Our 4th line was a worry almost all the time in our zone today.

Upwards and onwards.

This team has lost 3 teams since February. They are "beating the competition"

 

[plaidchuck]

Now time for NJ to shut them down so we can go full panic mode

 

[CrozJawz*]

There's no way that was a good goal. None.

Fleury should have had that in his glove and we wouldn't even be talking about an Ott goal...

 

[LGP6687]

I don't blame anyone really for this loss...what more could they have done?

Probably not much. We had nothing to lose, and Sabres players are fighting for their jobs. We didn't play our usual hard hitting game, but at this point, might be for the best.

We don't need bruises, strains and sprains going into the playoffs. Sabres seemed to get all the weird hops. Miller seems to only show up for games against the Penguins. lol

 

[SteelFish87*]

looks like we will most likely be playing the Rags in round 1
