The #Sabres just recalled goalie Andrey Makarov from Rochester. That's a bizarre one.

Uhmmm.

 

[Clock]

Someone sick...?

 

[BakedBuffalo]

Interesting..

 

[Gras]

I wonder why Hack didn't get the call

 

[ForsakenSabre]

Hasn't Hackett been playing better?

 

[BakedBuffalo]

I wonder why Hack didn't get the call

I think he's playing tonight for the Amerks.

 

[Beerz]

Someone sick...?

Most likely.

But I was shocked at Nolans comments today regarding Lindback.

 

[NEcoli]

Most likely.

But I was shocked at Nolans comments today regarding Lindback.

What'd he say?

[Beerz]

What'd he say?

Just days ago, fans were calling for Sabres coach Ted Nolan to sit hot starting goalie Michal Neuvirth and give wonky backup Anders Lindback some work.

“Everyone wanted Lindback, Lindback,†Nolan said Thursday inside HarborCenter after the Sabres prepared for tonight’s road game against the Ottawa Senators.

Nolan refused to sit Neuvirth, starting him eight straight games before the Sabres traded him Monday.

“How can you justify, wake up in the morning and go to sleep at nighttime, knowing that you’re not playing a goaltender that’s playing well?†Nolan said. “You can’t do it.â€

....

I guess Chad Johnson is too good of a goalie for the tank.

 

[McCauleyChirps]

So Lindback tonight...

 

[NEcoli]

....

Yeah. How do the other 29 teams' coaches, who play their backup goalie from time to time, sleep at night?

 

[Beerz]

Reading it a second time .. It's not as bad as I thought. He was speaking more towards Noidberg than Lindback.

Read it wrong.

 

[Moskau]

Chad Johnson getting some of that Pysyk Flu.

 

[Mattilaus]

Hasn't Hackett been playing better?

Exactly why he wasn't the one called up!

 

[CatsforReinhart]

Most likely.

But I was shocked at Nolans comments today regarding Lindback.

His comments dont have anything to do with Lindback...strange interpretation.

 

[Beerz]

His comments dont have anything to do with Lindback...strange interpretation.

Yes. I caught that when I posted his comments. I read it wrong earlier today.

Probably because you never sit a hot goalie. Neuvirth was hot and didn't look like he would cool off, so you don't sit him until he cools off.

This has been standard for the century, you don't bench hot players.

Playing your back-up isn't benching a player. Goalies don't play every game.
