Chef Jim Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 OK, I have a delimma. I like hockey and the Sabres, but rarely get to see regular season games. So, I hear all year how good the Sabres are looking. Then the playoffs come and I finally get to see them play. Then they lay eggs like they did today. So, clearly, I know I'm a jinx. OK. So, I'll stop watching. They'll win. But, what good is it wanting the Sabres to win, if I can never watch them win? Suicide is the only solution here.
Dan Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 I missed the game - what happened to Vanek?? Took a stick to the knee.
Dan Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 Suicide is the only solution here. Well I did make a post on the PPP board earlier today, so I'm clearly toying with suicidal thoughts.
Doc Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 Took a stick to the knee. Yeah, took a whack and then went head-first into the boards. Pang said that Vanek "lost an edge."
Fezmid Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 Yeah, took a whack and then went head-first into the boards. Pang said that Vanek "lost an edge." Was in intentional....?
Doc Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 Was in intentional....? It looked like he was going for the puck.
Simon Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 It looked like he was going for the puck. Considering how much dirty stick work we've seen from the Bruins in the last 3 days, I'm not convinced that he was playing the puck with that sharp downward hack that just happened to blast Vanek's knee.

meazza Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 Habs lose, Brooonz win. Crap. It's ok to hit a player in the face with your stick as long as you're a Capitals player. Let's see how those primadonna's handle 21K hostile fans at the Bell.

meazza Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 sure homer. So then, Markov getting a cross check in the face in front of the ref 20 seconds before the GTG isn't bad officiating? Can you please cite some examples of how Habs got away with calls? Good luck Marge.

There were plenty of hits from behind, interference you name it. You don't see it because you a habs homer (not Homer Simpson), I don't care about either one of these teams. I watched the game and there were plenty of missed calls both ways.

The slap actually looked to me to be just above the knee on the lower thigh. It may have been the camera, and I did not DVR the game, but I was thinking real bad bruise/charley horse rather than serious knee injury.
ExiledInIllinois Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 Wow... Every series iin the first round is now a 5-gamer... Except the CHI-NASH, which play game 2 tomorrow.
ExiledInIllinois Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 I really like Miller's reaction after the game... He really has his head screwed on right! BFLO was the first team to go perfect the whole season when leading into the third... You juts knew they wer going to get snake bit. The last team that went perfect was the 1994-1995 'Hawks (19-0). Also, BOS hasn't beat BFLO in a playoff game in 7 tries... Since 1992. Again: "Holidays must end you know." Oh well... Hope TV is okay!
