Postgame: 1-3-10.

I was planning on posting something else today, and then I remembered there was a game yesterday. Oh yeah.

One of the most boring games in existence but a win is a win, correct? That is how I felt after the Pittsburgh and Atlanta games. No matter how they get the points, I will take it. Ryan Miller was stellar in the net once again and got a shutout which I think he needed after what happened against Pittsburgh. A good confidence booster. He's now tied with Ilya Bryzgalov with the most shutouts in the league. Good job Ryan! Do any of you remember when it used to be a miracle when Ryan would get a shutout? Not the case this year. I would also like to mention that the defense has been awesome this year too (most of the time) so Ryan should say thank you to them too. A shutout is a group effort!

There is now a three way tie between Thomas, Timothy, and Clarke for the leader in goals on this team. Who is going to break that barrier first, hmmmm? Honestly I don't care as long as SOMEONE is putting pucks into the net on this team. WHOA, I JUST FOUND SOMETHING OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF TYPING THIS. Clarke only has ten goals! Okay, Thomas and Timothy have to fight it out now. As I said, as long as we're scoring goals and we're winning, I
don't care. There are going to be people at the end of this season though if Thomas has a (god forbid) low point in his career for goals and they'll ask why we're paying him so much. Everyone, just chill out. We have him for four more years after this. Get a grip.

Afternoon showdown.

It's not often we see three o' clock starts with the Sabres, but today is a whole lot different. They're taking on the Habs in about two hours at the Bell Centre, and the next time they pay them a visit, Tamara & I (with two of our friends) are going to be invading. Let's hope they can actually get a decent amount of shots on goal in the first period today.

Go Sabres!

I'll be honest with you all - last night, I was falling asleep during the game. FALLING ASLEEP! It was an entertaining game to say the least, and it was hard for me to stay awake. I'm at least glad that they won and are now four points ahead of the Bruins in the Northeast Division. We all know who they see on Wednesday...oh boy.

What about that clock mishap, huh? Most Sabres fans would have been furious if a goal had been scored during the time the clock stopped, and thank God that didn't happen. Tamara and I didn't even realize the game had ended because the clock was stopped at eight seconds and then when they changed the clock time, it was supposed to have ended already. I'm sure Habs fans are finding a way to bitch about it but whatever. It was just nice to see the Sabres not completely collapse and lose two points.

Clarke MacArthur is now leading the team in goals. Stop the presses. I'm pretty cool with it as long as Thomas can keep it up in other categories because to be honest, I like the balance scoring happening on this team. This team has been lacking it for the past two seasons, and if it means that his goal amount has to go down a bit? I'm okay with that. He's said it himself that he's just happy if the team can win, not about how many goals he can get or whatever.

Heeeey, the last time the Sabres played the Senators was when we went on our Ottawa trip. let's hope it doesn't turn into the same kind of game it was last time.
