It'd be pretty cool if we get Neuvirth vs Mrazek. Two Czech goaltenders on Hasek's jersey retirement night.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

We can win this one, right?

 

[EichHart]

We can win this one, right?

Well we are retiring Haseks number...So maybe....















Nah...Let's keep this losing streak rollin!

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

Come ONNNNNN. This one's special. This may be the only win in January

 

[Gras]

Should sign Hasek to a 1-Day PTO Contract and let him take warmups.

 

[DJN21]

Detroit always seems to keep us back pedaling I have a hard time seeing us walk outta this one with a W special night or not

 

[Tapu Coco]

We can win this one, right?

Not if Nolan hasn't figured out Detroit's PP yet

 

[moomoosoup]

Not if Nolan hasn't figured out Detroit's PP yet

Let's see if Detroit can get up to 5 PP Goals this time around.

Huge humiliating defeat for the Wings

These are the Mini #Hasek Banners all fans attending tonight's game will receive. Please be in your seats by 6:45pm.

Matt Ellis recalled.


Didn't think this was thread worthy news.

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

Looks like NHL Network is going to show some Hasek highlights at 5:

Easy. Don't take penalties.

 

[tsujimoto74]

Easy. Don't take penalties.

Kind of hard not to when you get hemmed in your own zone as often as we do. Penalties are inevitable when the other team dominates puck possession, which DET should.

 

[haseoke39]

Hasek's aura alone might get the sabres a shutout tonight. How about a classic 2-1 win with the sabres being out shot 41-17? I wouldn't be surprised. Nights like this one, to hell with what's supposed to happen.

Sounded lighter in my head. But a lot of our penalties seem a result from lazy stick work IMO. That can be cut down on

In other news, the Sabres will scratch defensemen Tyson Strachan and Nikita Zadorov tonight against the Detroit Red Wings. Winger Chris Stewart skated this morning but is still feeling sick, Sabres coach Ted Nolan said. Stewart will likely sit. Matt Ellis has been recalled from Rochester.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

Wtf Nolan :/

 

[SabreOil]

Wtf Nolan :/

He's pro tank

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Hey there, Rangers fan in peace. Let's rather say with the highest regards towards the best goalie ever!

Is there a possibility to watch the ceremony live? Gotta pay respect to Hasek.

 

[Tapu Coco]

Why do I get the feeling that Nolan is going to absolutely fall in love with Ellis's kumpeet and keep him on the roster for the rest of the year, much to the dismay of my eyes?
