The fact that the sabres failed to answer the bell has really upset me. Granted I dont expect Vanek to fight, but Myers and Gaustad were on the ice and neither did a damn thing. Myers is young, and needs to man up.

Yeah I was surprised at Buffalo's lack of retaliation after that hit. I'm sure the game on the night before Thanksgiving will be a real physical one.

I heard this morning that Miller got a concussion from that hit. Hopefully he has speedy recovery.

Gertner 11-14-2011 12:34 PM

Lucic has a meeting with Shanny today.

The fact the Sabres did nothing basically proved they show no confidence to support Miller as their goalie which is strange considering about a year ago Miller was getting praised as a star in the NHL and the US due to his performance in the Winter Olympics.

I could see if the coach was trying to do what Philly did last year with all the pulling and changing of goalies but the biggest difference is Philly had crap for quality in the net while Buffalo has good quality.

Gertner 11-14-2011 04:12 PM

Tyler Myers is a healthy scratch tonight.

weather vane 11-14-2011 05:04 PM

I think that they believe in their goalie... Miller is one of the best goalies in the world. I think it was just a lack of judgement on the part of the Sabres. Gaustad said it will not happen again.

Also Lucic did not hit him in the head and he let up... the NHL is becoming so pussified...

Hanso Amore 11-14-2011 05:10 PM

No suspension for Lucic. Due to....wait for it...Lack of Intent.

You can tell me it wasnt a dirty hit and he shouldnt be suspended, but dont tell me there was a lack of intent. Lucic did EXACTLY what he wanted to do.

Shanahan either needs to be consistent or stop suspending players.

Miller now has his 2nd concussion this Calendar year. Who knows how this plays out.

Myers has been a fucking train wreck this season. Its like watching a baby Giraffe try to walk. He needs to sit down for a bit and get his head on straight.

Gertner 11-14-2011 05:11 PM

I'm really hoping Rosehill or Orr runs Price for their midget running Reimer.

I dont fault Vanek, Pomminville or Sekera for not throwing down, but Gaustad was ON the ice. Horton held him up...so fight Horton. DO something. That is your role on the team. He is the only big body that can throw fists, and he watched that all go down. Really not earning that A on his chest.

Since miller has had a rough few weeks, now the local Media insists that there was no retaliation has a message to Miller.

Meanwhile, Lindy refuses to talk to the Media as he is so pissed that no one did anything.

Going to be interesting in Montreal tonight, as well as the next Boston game.

He got a penalized for exactly what he should have been penalized for. Nothing more, nothing less. If Miller gets a concussion from that hit then maybe he should think about retiring...

Gertner 11-14-2011 06:01 PM

Hall of Fame induction tonight! lol I once helped Doug Gilmour move boxes from the Maple Leaf Gardens to his car.

Huh? Lucic saw Miller and he had no chance to get that puck. He made no effort to get out of the way. He should have been suspended. I can't believe the Sabers didn't make a run at Thomas. They must be scared to fight. I can't wait to see someone fuck Chara and Lucic up. Sabers should feel like a bunch of cowards right now.

weather vane 11-15-2011 04:38 PM

For sure.

Gertner 11-15-2011 04:43 PM

Leafs vs Phoenix tonight. They'd better fucking win.

Emperor Smeat 11-15-2011 09:44 PM

Tough game but 6th win in a row for the Bruins although the streak of 5-6 goals per game was broken by New Jersey.

Bruins managed to leap frog over Ottawa, Tampa Bay, and New Jersey for the 8th seed right now. 4 points away from the division's 1st place Toronto and Buffalo.

Corndad 11-16-2011 01:32 AM

Saw some sick goals live tonight. Malkin is a beast. Letang had a sweet goal as well.

Av's Duchene had an amazing goal tonight too. Worth to check out the highlights of tonight's Pens vs Avs Game if haven't seen yet.

weather vane 11-16-2011 01:42 AM

6 in a row for the kids!

weather vane 11-16-2011 01:46 AM

As I said in another thread, Dan O'Toole and Jay Onrait are just killing Movember on TSN.

Gertner 11-16-2011 01:49 AM

Best duo in sportscasting. Fucking hilarious.

Arashi Kage 11-16-2011 11:19 PM

I watched the "Islanders unveil 3rd jersey" video on nhl.com - Despite what he says, I get the feeling that Moulson doesn't like the new jerseys. :rofl: It just seems like he's trying to say "something nice" about them.

weather vane 11-16-2011 11:23 PM

Not really a fan... Don't hate them though.

Gertner 11-16-2011 11:49 PM

Better than most third jerseys

RP 11-17-2011 12:29 AM

Eat dick Canucks. Hossa is amazing

SammyG 11-17-2011 03:16 AM

lol @ 7 rounds during shootout

Gertner 11-17-2011 10:33 AM

Leafs playing tonight with 3/4 of their team injured lol. Should turn out well.

Hanso Amore 11-17-2011 11:14 AM

And somehow Tim Connolly is healthy...

Sean 11-18-2011 01:00 AM

Steamroll team after team and then the Columbus Blue Jackets take the B's to a shootout.

Jesus Christ.

Sean 11-18-2011 01:01 AM

And there isn't a team in the league that can match the physicality of the Bruins. They'll have their way with every opponent because no one will answer them.

Intimifuckingdation.

weather vane 11-18-2011 01:01 PM

7 in a row for the kids!!!! Keep it going in Jew York boys!

Gertner 11-18-2011 01:03 PM

Anybody catch the Rosehill vs McGrattan fight last night? WOW!

Hanso Amore 11-18-2011 01:14 PM

That was good. 2nd best this year that Ive seen behind McCormick vs Glass

For those interested.

Hanso Amore 11-18-2011 01:51 PM

How McGrattan didnt break his hand with all the Helmet shots he had is amazing.

Nigga Drinks his milk.

Gertner 11-18-2011 02:10 PM

I can't believe Rosehill took all those shots and kept throwing. McGrats is a tank, but the last of a dying breed unfortunately.

Literally.

Gertner 11-18-2011 02:34 PM

Lombardi and Komisarek now out for 3 weeks each. This is getting ridiculous.

Gertner 11-19-2011 04:23 PM

The leafs forward line up for tonight

Londoner 11-19-2011 08:44 PM

Brilliant, thank you espn for making me having to put up with this bullshit. Enjoy just having college fucking football and nothing else. :mad:

Emperor Smeat 11-19-2011 10:07 PM

:D 8 in a row

Next 2 against Montreal and then Buffalo are going to be tough because both always seem to give the Bruins the most trouble in the division.

El Fangel 11-20-2011 12:02 AM

Chicago is getting barebacked in the was by Edmonton.

8-2 going into the 3rd

Hall 2g
