About the only good thing was entertaining audio from Ruff and Rivet afterward.....
Rivet's comments are really pissing me off. Craig needs to call someone out and it's the man in the mirror. He has no credibility, along with our other "leaders" (e.g. Goose, Grier, Tim "*****foot" Connolly).
The Pirates should get to play the Sabres for a game, losing team goes to the minors.
Tomorrow's game is going to suck if they stay the course. Losing to the Habs in our own arena and having to endure the soccer chants is a pretty grating experience.
Jack Edwards apparently isn't done hating Buffalo. Now he's calling out the stats guys.
Point the first: Jacky-E can eat a big fat dick. And then go to bed with his Kaleta blowup doll. Not necessarily in that order.
Point the second: The stats really are a joke, but that's certainly not limited to Buffalo. The league should have stat-keepers that go around the league like the refs do. And while we're talking about misleading numbers, the league should also measure weight and height officially, instead of just letting teams put whatever they want out there. Either do it right, or don't bother giving us the numbers.

Are you kidding me? Out of anyone interviewed after that game, Rivet's interview was by far the best. I had a much better understanding of why this team is sucking after listening to Rivet. He let us know that certain players are making too many mistakes, and why they are making the mistakes, but he didn't take a chicken-**** route by directly calling the players out. He may not be Gretzky but the guy still gets it.
You stick up for your teammates no matter what, even if you're last in the league. If you don't then I guarantee there isn't a team in the league who would want you in the locker room.

Yeah, stat keeping is a big problem around the league. I just find it funny he picks on Buffalo first.
Sort of OT, but Ottawa seems to be playing like a playoff team again. Now Ottawa, Montreal, and Boston seem to be playing well the past couple of weeks, while Toronto is slipping. We're the only team who has sucked for the entire year so far.
i think this team should run three offensive lines and one checking line. Connolly would be an ideal third line center for an offensive line. Put gerbe and stafford on his wings and let them see. i dont think connolly is the issue with the teams woes..but he isnt helping.

Having Grier, Nieds, McCormick, Kaleta & Gaustad on the roster limits that, at least the way Lindy makes lines.
Two of them have to be on the same line, which limits what it can do...I'd like to run 4 lines that can score...here's what I can come up with:
That's in no particular order and done relatively quickly, but I feel like you could run all four of these lines evenly (they're all relatively off/def balanced) in any situation, something that's been our strength in the past.
