Thrashers, Hedberg Continue Dominance Over Sabres
Posted on 2 Apr 2009 by Tim Anderson.
Perhaps it is the most fitting end to a season filled with disappointment. The 3-second shot of the look on Ryan Miller’s face told a 6-month story of a team that still lacks an identity of their own. It told the story of a man who has tried to take a leaderless team on his back and carry them to their first playoff birth in the post Drury/Briere era. It also told the story of a man who...

Is our New Found Hope Blind to the Road Ahead?
Posted on 29 Mar 2009 by Tim Anderson.
Is it hope, frustration, or anxiety that kept me from getting a good night's sleep last night? There's no question that, at least mathematically, the Sabres have scraped and crawled their way back into the Eastern Conference playoff race. That said, try to keep the excitement to a minimum, because by “back into,” I really mean “barely alive.” Nevertheless, wi...

Fat Lady Waiting… Getting Sweaty
Posted on 26 Mar 2009 by Tim Anderson.
With the fat lady waiting in the wings early in the 3rd period of last night’s game against Florida, the Sabres introduced a new kind of controversy. I just love clichés, and for anyone who spends any time at all writing on sports, there are an endless abundance of them to chose from. However, for me there are only two weighing on my mind this morning; “Too little, too late&...

Two Losses I can Live With
Posted on 22 Mar 2009 by Tim Anderson.
Another crushing weekend that has put yet another nail in the coffin has me less distressed than I've been in quite some time. Why? Perhaps it's because I've been to hell and back over the past 72-hours, suffering from a seemingly new strand of flu that has not only taken the life out of me (which I thought had already been accomplished courtesy the 2008-09 Buffalo sport's ...

Loss in Ottawa Begins to Answer Questions
Posted on 18 Mar 2009 by Tim Anderson.
Despite the picture the standings paint, the outlook is far more discouraging. And if you're looking for reassurance, stop here! There's just no other way to describe it. For me, the only rational way one can explain the sudden collapse of the Buffalo Sabres, is to surmise that they clearly possess a high propensity for apathy. We can talk about the lack of leadership, which I th...

Annual Tease, or Something to Write Home About?
Posted on 13 Mar 2009 by Tim Anderson.
It wasn't pretty, and often times it seemed as though the Sabres were hemmed in their own end for minutes at a time, however the blue and gold dug deep inside their flu-ridden bellies, and for the first time in weeks found a way to win a game in which they were outplayed. The Florida Panthers certainly looked like a team desperately desiring some breathing room, the same breathing room t...

More of the Same, and the Same Aint Good
Posted on 11 Mar 2009 by Tim Anderson.
It's what I expected, it's how I suspected, and it's why I believed the Buffalo Sabres' season came to an end last Saturday night when they were shutout by the hapless Islanders. When you have a schedule as daunting as Buffalo's, it's a necessity to win the games you are supposed to, and as I've gone over and over again, they aren't doing that, an...

If You Want Something Done, You’ve got to do it Yourself
Posted on 10 Mar 2009 by Tim Anderson.
There's no one out there who's looking to lend the Sabres a helping hand. Since Friday's win over Phoenix, a victory that put Buffalo only 2-points out of the #5 seed in the Eastern Conference, the floor has collapsed, leaving them in 10th place. And they have no one to blame but themselves. Their loss Saturday night to the Senators left them calling for help, however nothing b...

We’re the Only Ones not Taking Care of Business
Posted on 8 Mar 2009 by Tim Anderson.
While the rest of the teams around them in the standings took care of business tonight, Buffalo once again fell victim to the Ottawa Senators. I'm at a loss to understand why it is the Sabres cannot handle an Ottawa team that has already packed it in for the season.It's hard to fathom how a group of players that have nothing to play for can handle a team that is fighting for their pl...

Two Down, One to Go
Posted on 7 Mar 2009 by Tim Anderson.
So far, so good. The Sabres, currently in a situation that I believed would require a 3 of 3 performance this week, is now on the verge of coming to fruition. A win tonight and Buffalo will reclaim their long held playoff spot among the top 8 in the Eastern Conference.What a wild race it is in the East. The Sabres, currently sitting at 9th in the standings, are a mere 2-points out of ...
