  1. Luukenen should be the Sabres number one goalie now! He has earned it as he has given solid performance after solid performance. The game in NJ, maybe worst recent loss, he did not play. That bum Comrie started and Levi finished. Luukenen returned next game beating a frustrated Rangers team 5-1. It will be interesting tonight. Binnington vs Luukenen.
  2. Granato should have gone with Luukenen who earned the right to start with a solid performance and yet Granato is hell bent on starting Levi? We lose a game we had. OT so a pt. Big deal. Thompson and Quinn are needed big time. When they come back I believe the Sabres are good enough to go on a run. But not until they are back. Granato must realize Luukenen is our best option in goal until dumb ass Adams gets us a goalie maybe as good as Donnie Edwards! Miller and Hasek is probably asking too much.
  3. Islanders at Edmonton tonight. Once upon a time, 1980’s, this matchup was special.
  4. Blown out by Dallas last night were the Wild. Sabres shut out in Pittsburgh by a goalie that has been hot, but they should have done better catching them returning from the West coast
  5. Im not too happy with my team either. This thread sure woke up the forum at least. LOL. Got some blood pumping in some.
  6. The better team does not always win in this sports where lucky bounces can make or break you.
  7. I just watched Marty Biron's take on the Edmonton Oilers and he says this is not likely to be fixed overnight. Having arguably the best two players in the NHL as he said, the rest of them are non existent. Who saw this coming? Sure, maybe you can kick my Sabres around some, but not this much
  8. I will flip this post and say we, meaning the Buffalo Sabres, can win this game with fair to good goaltending. Vs an underachieving bunch in Minnesota. They scare me not!!!!!
  9. I usually worry about East coast teams first game or two on West trip, jet lag. It’s a long day , seems endless as you go some that it’s 3 hours earlier.
  10. How the hell did you guys get Peterson? You sneaky slimey little weasels! Kings rung his bell twice as I type!
  11. I’m sure JR is as mad with them as I am with Sabres. Who’s in goal for Flyers tonight? I suspect they had to call up someone from AHL?
  12. Killed by Flyers, couldn’t watch, no feed. Now on to Toronto to get our arses steamroller! No clue if Levi or kid from Rochester? Can you believe Edmontons record? Surprised
  13. Comrie injured long term. So if Luukenen plays vs Flyers, this Cooley(whoever in the Dickens he is), gets thrown to the wolves tomorrow in Toronto if Levi isn’t quite ready? I feel bad for the Sharks who are now the worst team in hockey ,! It seems they quit on coach last night in 10-1 debacle at home vs Vancouver. I imagine the boos rained down
  14. Yes we were badly outshot. And the scoreboard looks like Sabres beat them handily. Luukenen has proven to me last two that he should be our number one goalie. I assure you the Sabres will play harder on offense at home Friday. I hope your goalie is ok. If the Flyers have to use a backup for any extended time it won’t be good. We have a back to back Friday/Saturday so expect Comrie to play Friday. A trip to Toronto looms Saturday and Luukenen likely gets that task
  15. Both teams off to decent starts. Could be better. If we had realized Luukenen might be our best guy moving forward? Levi injured. Not sure how long. But I would be shocked if Luukenen is not in goal tonight. He has earned the right. I think I might be able to watch on this new app I saw advertised? I looked it up. April 5 next meeting. So spring. By then they likely both know their fates.
  16. Luukenen likely has earned one of the starts vs the Flyers who are up next. What this team really needs is Jack Quinn. I wonder how close he is? He is going to really help. No doubt he will be with Paterka. Once Quinn returns then we know what they can do.
  17. Maybe Luukenen is the answer at least short term? But I’ll be cautiously optimistic as Pittsburgh, and I assume Jarry, blanked them game before. But this Colorado team has been good on offense most games, led by McKinnon of course. Comrie has been decent and played in a tough 5-4 loss to Lindy and his Devils. I hope Luukenen continues to play well.
  18. It should be more than 30 when you consider how Patrick Roy won that series for Montreal all by himself! That was one of the worst teams to win a cup in my lifetime.
  19. Just saying Buffalo played well in both games and Montreal only escaped with win due to an unusual stellar performance by Allen. I see your boys beat a good team 3-0. A needed win after a not so great start. They should win next game easily, can’t remember opponent but not a good team
  20. The Sabres deserved a better outcome vs Montreal but next night win in Ottawa. Hopefully a good sign of things to come? They outplayed Montreal but Jake Allen was hot. I can’t believe Teresenko now plays for Ottawa. I didn’t know this until last night
  21. Yes. And he is in California now. He called in during an Orioles game last year as when he left ESPN he did the Orioles games. Bill Clement, the retired Flyer, was very good.
  22. Gee we won one. With the worst hockey announcers I have ever heard. I mean, remember when Bill Clement was the analyst and the announcer who used to also be the Orioles announcer was very good? I just cant remember his name, but they were ten times better than the lame ass crew that called last nights game. I turned it off with the Sabres up 2-0. Figured if I kept watching they would lose.
