GDT: Game 51: Columbus vs. Buffalo | 1/25 7PM EST

[Mayor Bee]

Looks like it's about to be 4-1...

 

[NotWendell]

OK kids. The object of the power play is for US to score!

 

[Samkow]

The way Buffalo is clutching and grabbing...Jacque Lemaire would have tears of pride in his eyes watching this game...

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Captain material right there by Dubi. Great job.

Wonder who scores their next shorty

 

[Robert]

He's a bit slow but no worse than RJ me thinks. He'll be a wanted man, personally, I rather we throw the checkbook at Vanek.

Vanek is another Rick Nash.... I want blue collar guys like Moulson...

 

[punk_o_holic]

3rd times the charm or Buf goes 3 for 3?

Score here and it would be huge.

 

[aRussian]

Decline. Decline!

 

[Columbus Jack]

Can we decline the PP? 4-1 sounds pretty hard to overcome

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Figures

 

[Columbus Jack]

Wiz has been BRUTAL tonight

The way Buffalo is clutching and grabbing...Jacque Lemaire would have tears of pride in his eyes watching this game...

Derian Hatcher is contemplating coming out of retirement.

 

[HockeyGuy1964]

1 time for Bobcat.

 

[Columbus Jack]

Most frustrating game ever.

 

[DJA]

Sabres seem to collapse on goal on every shot attempt/rebound and there's no room for any follow up shots, ever. Frustrating.

 

[CharlotteJacket]

McBackup had 4 no sweat saves in 16 1/2 minutes. How are we losing this game?

 

[NotWendell]

Kristian Huselius spotted in Columbus!

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Going to take one hell of a 20 minutes to get the game tied.

 

[teamkory]

very frustrating. miller is playing good. so that looks good for USA... but oh well still 20 mins to go.. we got this

 

[Jyrki]

them bounces, man.

 

[Dednimnepo]

These are the games that test resolve and mettle.

 

[Iron Balls McGinty]

Most frustrating game ever.

CBJ has controlled most aspects of this game except the one that counts. - goaltending.

Buffalo has blocked 23 shots through 2 periods according to the stat boards.

 

[JACKETfan]

I'm in.

 

[DJA]

Another reason for frustration - Sabres 23 blocked shots, CBJ have 3.

 

[Robert]

Well folks.... this is a good test of what winning the cup is all about.... gotta win games as this, especially at home...

To win the cup every part of your game must excel... I’m still confused as to why our defensive was turned into a drama tonight.... (only five)

Someone in CBJ land screwed up before this critical game tonight, JHC, a sellout crowd at home and the news of the day is weather and 5 defenseman....??

 

[NotWendell]

Let's call it a near-sellout or just a good crowd.
