Sabres vs Leafs (April 2, 8pm)

BG43 · 04-01-2004, 09:37 PM

What a HUGE game!!

Games vs the Leafs are always exciting so we know that a good game is in store. I can't wait until this one gets underway. Buffalo NEEDS the Canes help in beating the Isles.. that would be GIGANTIC. These final two games are winnable.. considering we've had success against both Toronto and Montreal this year. *crosses fingers*.. let's hope we can keep this going. Great win vs the Rangers last night.. I can only hope for much of the same and of course Islander losses.

Buffalo 37-32-7-4.......... 85 points

LET'S GO BUFFALO

Last game vs Toronto: 6-5 Toronto OT win

(5-0-1 record since I started these GDT's)

leafaholix* · 04-01-2004, 09:44 PM

So. Many. Numbers.

woodfeld2 · 04-01-2004, 10:26 PM

Sabres win 4-2 with an EN.
BUF - Satan 2, Dumont, Mair
TOR - Sundin, Roberts
But sadly, I must say my other prediction, 4-1 NYI over CAR.

As for my prediction...
Easiest way for me out of this, since Buffalo needs it more and I do like Toronto too:

Buffalo 2-1 OTW
Sabres: Zhitnik, Briere
Leafs: Leetch

Sabres need a win, and a point can't hurt Toronto. Everyone wins.

Takeo · 04-01-2004, 11:50 PM

3-1 Leafs. Then they get bombed in round 1.

K-Mac · 04-02-2004, 12:50 AM

Sabres 5 - Leafs 2

Think we have good chance if Canes help us out tomorrow. The end with Philly and they need the points still, with players coming back into their lineup. Go Weekes go!

Unlike last time,I feel good about Buffalo's chances. We will win tonight, while Carolina will sneak one out.

Mr Brownstone · 04-02-2004, 11:06 AM

Sabres find the golf course tonight despite a win. I think the Isles handle Carolina with ease. I hope this game is a bloodbath, but the Sabres pull it out.

imyourhuckleberry · 04-02-2004, 11:19 AM

5-1 sabres!

LET'S GO BUFFALO!

GO 'CANES GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have three predictions for tonight.

1. Sabres win 4-3 OT
2. Canes win 3-2 OT
3. I get an ulcer.

Folks,

A word to the wise.... let's keep all posts non personal and hockey related in this thread.

thank you.

Schenn02 · 04-02-2004, 03:08 PM

Go Leafs Go!! Go Nyi Go!!!

Rhett4 · 04-02-2004, 03:27 PM

4-2 Buffalo in one of the most intense games in recent history. I'm expecting a dandy. I doubt there will be many fights (too much on the line), but I have no doubt we will see hitting, grinding, and a heck of a lot of scrumming.

eSabre · 04-02-2004, 03:30 PM

I think the Sabres will get off to another great start, but get the job done this time...

Sabres 7, Leafs 2

BUF: Satan, Briere, Hecht, Grier, Jillson, Afinogenov, Kalinin

BG43 · 04-02-2004, 03:38 PM

Guys, I'm getting really nervous about this one.

Even if we win.. there's a great chance that we'll be eliminated anyways.

I'm hoping for the best.. Buffalo deserves some luck this season..

I'll be proud of our boys no matter what happens. They've made this race exciting and have made hockey a joy to watch this season.

I agree. It's been fun, and in the end, that's all that really matters.

I'll refrain from slapping you only because Agent Orange is a dandy band.

Afino · 04-02-2004, 05:34 PM

Don't worry Agent Orange, I'll be over at the Isles board after they lose and the Sabres pull to within 1

jjricco8 · 04-02-2004, 06:32 PM

2-0 Isles. I am not trolling. Regardless of who scores, I can update here if you would like. As I type...The Canes just cut the lead in half.

I swear, i'm gonna die of a heart attack before this night is over....check the NHL.com scoreboard...its 0-0, listen to the radio, its 2-0, then, its 2-1.
