Game Nine Open Thread: Senators at Sabres

According to a comment left by twoeightnine, Weber hopped a flight from Portland earlier today, which means it’s possible Tallinder is out tonight. If my damn phone works, I’ll update from the pregame skate tonight in comments.

    Which first: Mair or Peters fight or Sabres’ goal? None of the above?

  2. vtTom says:

    what’s really terrible is we’ll have to watch ottawa have their way w/ the sabres all season long. they’ll push the sabres around w/ no recourse and score lots of goals – go fuckin figure

    hey what was the call on weber? hitting the guy w/ the puck?

    NHL network gets boners when ottawa makes a play, just like TSN

  3. Wolf says:

    Chris Neil takes a puck in the face? Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy!

  4. boots says:

    Oy Gevalt! This game blows! :-(

  5. Wolf says:

    FUCK FUCK FUCKITY FUCK FUCKING FUCK FUCK FUCK!

  6. Kevin J. says:

    Yeah, this is almost as bad as the Flyers.

  7. keller says:

    Who is in net Thibault?

  8. Wolf says:

    UGH! Peters is SUCH a fucking pussy. My mom fights better than that!

  9. Kevin J. says:

    That answers my question.

  10. Kevin J. says:

    Well, that explanis a lot, Wolf.

  11. what a freaking horrific game…

    and i guess the answer was…ding ding ding…a peters fight!

  12. Wolf says:

    Alright… enough of this. I’m going to go find something productive to do.

  13. Scoop77 says:

    @47: Did anyone notice Vermette’s cheap shot at Vanek in the Sabres’ end a minute ago? I don’t see anyone running him. Same old Sabres. No self-respect. A bunch of cream puffs.

  14. susie says:

    mmmm…comeback? *voice dripping with sarcasm* although, it is possible…never give up on the Sabres.

  15. Brendan says:

    Kukla’s Korner has something about Mair possibly being suspended. Anyone else hear anything?

  16. TheTick says:

    I imagine the league will look at both he and Neil as they both got misconducts in the final few minutes. But I haven’t seen anything official.

  17. TheTick says:

    *just read the kukla bit*

    ‘Mair being reviewed’ and yet Neil wasn’t in the dressing room yet either. Hmm! When do they play next?

    “You gotta protect that guy all year, he’s a fucking joke”

  18. trevor says:

    Anyone who thinks mair should be suspended for that obviously wouldn’t want to have seen the Grade A fight in the hallway during one of my high school hockey games.

  19. Matt S. says:

    Mair fined $2,500 per TSN.

    It’s the maximum allowed under the CBA.

  20. Brendan says:

    From WGR (I laughed out loud):

    Mair was fined the league-maximum $2,500 for an incident in the hallway connecting the Sabres and Senators dressing room after Buffalo’s 5-2 loss to Ottawa.

    When asked what he was trying to communicate to the Senators, he said, “We don’t play those guys until January, so I wanted to wish them a Happy Halloween.”

    What did they say back?

    “I think they said Merry Christmas.”

    The Buffalo News’ John Vogl asked if Mair was trying to talk to Chris Neil or Jaarko Ruutu?

    “It’s Halloween for everybody, John.”

  21. PA Pete says:

    Hear he was going after Neil and Ruutu and Sens’ PR guy got in the way ….

    $2,500 fine? what a joke? Mair pays that in parking fees for the year … I mean, why bother?

    Look! Up in the sky! Not a bird….not a plane…it’s a Goose!

  23. trevor says:

    well how about that? my first prediction of the year turned out right. i know, big surprise.

    my next one: *I* will play for the sabres before tim connolly does this year.

    seriously, ‘homo’ is too manly for this cat.

  24. Matt S. says:

    Speaking of Mair, I have to share this with you guys. I got this off the Puck Daddy blog on Yahoo.
