lazy26 Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Nice work! I love the statistical information. The boys need to come out flying like they did against TB. The Sabres should be tired from last night. GO HABS GO!!!! Also, someone needs to take out Gaustad right off the bat. Nothing dirty, but just to show him he can't walk all over us like he did last game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brobin Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 I hope our 2nd line can start producing. Gainey is riding the super line, but at some point he needs to know that Pleks and AK can help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbhatt Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Great opportunity tonight with the Rangers already having lost to the Pens. Gotta capitalize on it and get two points tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Minister Koivu Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 (edited) I think that this game is our test. Have the Habs really made progress? Are Koivu and Kovalev really playing to their potential? We always have trouble with Buffalo. This game will answer a lot of questions for me.

Time to prove me wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We always have trouble with Buffalo. This game will answer a lot of questions for me. +1000 This is the real test. A team that is trying to make the playoffs and can beat us easy. What I really want to see is the other lines contribute and get more time, to know we can beat a team without constant PP time with all our top players playing constantly. That will never last. I also want to see Price have a good game. The last two games our goalie was a non-factor for the most part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brobin Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 good save by Price, but he is still making stupid plays with the puck.. he needs to use his D and stop tossing it to the point when he doesn't have to. I swear he wasn't this bad handling the puck last year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobRock Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 (edited) I'll give him an A for effort, but I just can't see why Kotsopoulos drops the gloves. I can't remember the last time he even looked good in a fight, much less won. Edited March 28, 2009 by RobRock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafikz Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Wait... Sabres are fighting for a playoff spot, and they have suspended Afinigenov because he spent 2:20 min on the ice ? Or did I miss something ????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoZed Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 LOL, Kost.. 0 for 1,234,345 fights... That must be Rivet's first fight since the 90's... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
