So I haven't posted/commented in a while, but it is not for lack of reading.  I am using a new web browser and it seems to go wacky when I try to log into SBnation (google chrome) so I have to load up Internet explorer to post something and well I am just lazy, so I read more than comment now

 

However, I am curious as to the depth of our goalies down the stretch...namely Lalime, I know his play has increasingly gotten better over the last couple months but his sustainability is the question in my mind...he is 3-8 as a starter and the team usually seems flat when they play with him in net (though they have been flat for the first couple periods of the last few games) regardless...I think we need a spark at back up to make this team complete and give us some depth in the playoffs (I for one think that if Miller gets injured we are done) esp since Miller is the starting goalie for the olympic team...So where does this leave us...

 

Well now that the Islanders have Dipietro back and seem to be keeping Roloson...what about aquiring Biron...he is still a fan favorite in Buffalo and a great back up...getting him back with Miller could be the tandum we need

 

Just a thought...feel free to discuss...and what would we have to give up to get him

Hey guys...I realize this is a long and tedious off season and we are trudging through it any way we can...so I was look at the bills blog Buffalo Rumblings (as I am a Bills fan) and apparently our boy Maybin has been tearing it up in pre-season workouts...I couldn't be happier for him and I hope he makes the starting line up...

 

It got me wondering how is the rest of this draft class panning out...and not just the draftees how about the "walk on's"...I know that Sargeant is also a Bill but not much has been mentioned about him (though I have great expectations for him)...but what is going on with the other guys  Norwood, Butler, DWill, Evans...ect

 

WE ARE...

Ok with the trade deadline looming...I was wondering if anyone was hearing any rumors floating around...I am down in NC right now and Buffalo news is not the hot topic you thought it would be...so I was hoping that some one could shed some light on the subject

 

and for S&G's lets make our own wish list...now let's keep it reasonable ya know

 

I was thinking Lalime and Afinogenov go to St Louis for

Roman Polak, Chris Mason, and a 3rd round pick

 

just throwing that out there...

of Our's Bring Shame....

Though I am not able to make any road trips this season or actually any season...I would ask, as a PSU alum...Please be respectful when traveling into enemy territory...Yes I know it's easy to taunt and get into "pissing contests" with the other team (especially if they're choc full o' nuts) but let's remember that we represent PSU as much as the players on the field

now I am not saying that we should cower like dogs when confronted...we need to show our strength if we have to but there is no need to act like idiots and fools...remember the team from 1912, go out there and give it all you got (support the team) and don't let them get to you just hit them where it hurts and let them lick thier wounds and go cry about it

Just keep in mind you not only represent yourself but an entire school and alumi fan base...You Stay Classy PSU

 

WE ARE

 

BTW Mike I love the PSU history I think you should post more of it when you get a chance....RUTS and Kevin your posts are kick ass as well...Hats off to BSD keep pumpin out the good stuff

I just got NHL center ice for this year and I am getting pumped...the Bills are actually winning...PSU is kicking ass....and now I am ready for some hockey baby....so my question is what has been going on with the team...Yes D.O. i have been keeping up with the blog but I need more, who is in Ruff's dog house, how is Maxxy Pad doing is he stepping it up now that they threatened to trade him, who is showing leadership for the captaincy, and please tell me that our back up goalie is showing up b/c we need to take pressure off of miller

 

Let's Go Buffalo

This is a great page showing how over rated laurinaitis really is...he has horrible positioning and jumps on anything going down to the ground...one of my favorite pics is when he is getting man handled by #71 and gets turned and is facing the total opposite direction of the ball...to me that just screams Butkus award winner

 

get ready for the love fest b/c he will be an all american this year and will win every defensive award imaginable....disgusting

Yeah baby

Thank you

 

Now is a mornful time to be a Sabres fan.  While a handful of eastern team still remain in the on going quest we sit at home and wonder what could have been.  As our team has been "temporarily" disassembled to play for thier respective countries, lesser NHL teams seem to be playing for a chance at Lord Stanley's ultimate prize.  Though it hurts me that we are only one year removed from watching our team dominate, to some extent, there is still hope out there and there is still great hockey being played.  I for one am not ashamed to admit I have been watching and cheering for a young and energetic Pittsburgh team that has been nothing less than dominate this post season.  I have no qualms cheering for the Pens as we (the Sabres) usually have pretty good games against them, and they are not in our division.  At first I was happy to see them demoralize Ottawa in a four game sweep, mainly to prove just how special this Sabres team was 1 year ago.  Now they are about to take out the increasingly desparate NY Rangers, another possible sweep situation, and I could not be happier.  I have to say I am not a fan of teams that try to "buy" a cup or any sports trophy for that matter, and with the way the Pens are playing I think they will prevent that this season.
