Good lord, pass the Xanax

 

[Gordon Lightfoot]

Lots of calls for MacDermid to play.

Anyone think that has a chance of happening?

 

[cska78]

i think bourque should be scratched, Pandolfo - 4th line, Campbell third

 

[LouJersey]

Really would love MacDermid dressed so Lucic can worry about beating the Sabres on the scoresheet...

Still think there is no way he doesn't go with Scott tonight... You know he wants too.

 

[dup7]

I think tonight is the night we see Seggy break out....

 

[LouJersey]

Very interested to see the line the Sabres start with... Let's see if Ruff has any balls.

 

[Flannelman]

haven't watched a ton of Providence in the last few years - Lane MacDermid - is he actually a decent fighter?

Easy to have when standing behind the bench

I recall a game where he was lined up with, I think Bob Sweney and doing his tough act. Neely was sent out to lineup with him and Lindy didn't want any part of him. Selective 'tough guy'

Well he did good against rupp last year during his call up. Out of the fights i've seen him have in the ahl he can handle himself. Think i'd give him the edge over kaleta, don't know about orr, and scott would probabley pound him. But Lane can also play i'd like to see him in the lineup soon.

yes, he is.. had a couple nice ones in the A this and last year.. and picked up a pretty even fight with Rupp in his first nhl shift as well.

**** milbury gave him a good beating in this. "lindy one the road, ruff at home" someone said in the comments

He would be good against guys like Weber, Foligno and Ott. Scott would kill him. He is in between Campbell and Thornton as a fighter.... A little better then Horton was IMO. In the Glass, Asham, McQuaid range IMO. Not as good as them, but those should be his type opponents. He stepped up with Rupp and did quite well though.

Only read the first page of posts, not too much oozing of confidence in their boys is there?

 

[DevilsHughes86]

So how long until the first fight tonight

Let's go Bruins

Losing to Milbury must be a career highlight

Looks like Lindy threw a slap or two..

 

[DevilsHughes86]

4 seconds.

Would really set the tone

I hope Ott and Scott are on the starting lineup for the Sabres but surprising Scott only has 1 fight so far

 

[Alicat]

I highly doubt it lol.

I say take it to them. No need to sit back and wait for Bon Scott's clown show.

There a fight up when neely was in vancouver.. lindy got him a few times and neely got up and tagged him a few. It was actually relatively balls for lindy.. then at the end you see the ref consoling ruff and he looks injured. Same old same old i guess haha.

This is an example of why I dont want Looch constantly throwing with mutton heads:

Callahan out 10-14 days with shoulder injury
Callahan, who scored the winning goal against the Flyers, was injured early in the third period during a scuffle with Philadelphia forward Max Talbot.

After undergoing an MRI on Wednesday, Callahan was diagnosed with a subluxation of his left shoulder. The forward was dragged down by the arm by Talbot and immediately skated off. His left arm dangled as Callahan went down the tunnel to the locker room

isn't he prone to freak injuries? how many FM's does he have? In other words, does he even know what he's doing when he fights?
