Pre-Game Talk: Early game in Buffalo. Friday 4 P.M.

[peate]

Just a heads up tomorrow's game is a late afternoon affair. I assume Niemi gets the start, and we might see Alzner, not that it'll make a world of difference, but anything helps at this point.

When Sabres have some compete, they manage to f*** over the Habs in the most creative, painful, and annoying way possible. Way more annoying than Boston, who we can embarrass and humiliate plenty of times no matter how good they are.

OT loss or regulation, folks.

Plus, it's an early game, so we will not be prepared.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

They won 7 straight, won't be easy

 

[SirClintonPortis]

And I'm glad Tyler Myers had to suffer in his career in Buffalo. Bitch took out Gomez and had no restraint is trying to knock out our players. So Subban breaking his f***ing leg was some sweet karma.

Niemi stats are awful. Look at that save percentage. I know the D is terrible but he need to be better. How many goalies in the league manage to have 4 wins in 6 games with 88,7 save percentage?

Sabres are playing great, gonna be a tough one

Eichel and Skinner have been so good. That ROR was awful, but their gm really had a good off season.

What?? How dare he touch our golden boy???
Trade him already!!!

Those tweets are so lame. Also everything described in that snippet is a penalty.

I forecasted a good game vs washington... They got one point and were entertaining

I forecasted a difficult game vs NJ... And it happened

I am forecasting another loss in Buffalo

... And a win vs the Bruins Saturday.

He's also allowing at least 3 goals/game hence why I name him Ni3mi

Great news
Sooner the better for the team.....as long as it's safe for him.
But that tells me that he's ready but don't want to let him play 2 games in 2 nights.

Unless there's injuries, we should have some off ice actions in the next 4 days.
Waivers, Trade, Buyout....something must happen before Weber can start his season.

 

[David Suzuki]

... And a win vs the Bruins Saturday.

After this we play what should be winnable games all at home. With Weber coming back hopefully we can win at least 3 of 5.

I remember a game against the Sabres back when we had Gorges (maybe 2011-12 season). Not only did we lose, but as well, we lost two or three players due to injuries in the first half of the game. It was one of the saddest games I've ever watched on TV.

Dress Weber! A couple days more rest wont mean squat. The guy is ready. I cant believe they didnt dress him against Jersey. Theyre going to get creamed by Buffalo and Boston if they dont.

Tuesday. Seriously. They need him now.

Weber will help the current situation but I don't think that he is going to be the miracle that many of you are hoping for, he's just not that kind of player.

Markov was. Weber never was. Now, if it was Ryan Suter instead of Shea Weber, that's a much different tune....

The guy is still regarded as one of the best in the league. How does that not help? 26 minutes of Weber instead of Ouellette, Benn or Alzner? Id call that a big step in the right direction.

I’m not from Quebec, but I love how we always seem to get scheduled for American holiday afternoon games..

Relax. It's not that deep.
