Gameday : Sabres @ Penguins – Pregame Thoughts

Gameday : Sabres @ Penguins – Pregame Thoughts

All right good morning everybody The Boys Are Back In Action as they are in Pittsburgh to take on the Penguins in a big one coming Up for those of you that have given up I feel bad for you don’t give up okay we’ve suffered too damn long to give up that’s one thing I expect Sab fans not to do actually is give up don’t give up guys we there’s not eight games left

There’s more than half a season and a lot can happen in half a season with the youngest team in hockey a lot can happen yes it’s been disappointing yes it’s been frustrating yes they’ve been a yo-yo all year long we know this but it’s the youngest team in hockey and my

Experience guys as a fan over the years you can’t predict a young team you just can’t and as much as we think we can we can’t like lot last game going into Montreal I was telling my buddy I said we can lose seven to two or we can win 6

Nothing there’s just no way to know with these guys night tonight one thing we do know as fans they got to get on a winning streak and they got to get on it soon soon like in the next I’d say 12 games there has to be a five-game

Winning streak somewhere coming or else we’re going to be dust this year all right so um the Sabres they’re last 10 games now folks are four five and one the penguins are 72 and one they’ve got their game together finally over in Pittsburgh and you guys remember not too

Long ago the Penguins were struggling just like us but they’re s to And1 their last 10 at home the penguins are 107 and one they got a winning record at home now also the Sabres on the road are 810 and three the Penguins goals for and against they are a plus4

The Sabers are a minus 16 still a very dismal number there we’ve been in the minus all year it seems there so uh I’m guessing Lucan will get the start guys in this game which I think is a mistake to be honest I think we should go with

Levi in this game but I don’t think they will I think they’ll go with Lucan um as I’m filming this guys it’s about 10:15 in the morning so I’m not sure what time this will get out to you cuz I got to get out of here soon I want to film the

Video ahead of time so apologies if this gets out to you like early evening you know it’s a best I can get it out I slept in I was a bad boy and I slept in I meant to get up early and do this so we go into this game

Guys I better give you that number too before I forget eight points out of a playoff spot the games in hand is not an issue no more that’s good news for us okay it’s really not an issue Philly played 38 games the Sabers have played 39 so it’s it’s not the biggest issue

Like when they had four games in hand you get what I’m saying it’s not that’s one issue kind of out of the way that’s what one win can do it kind of takes issues out of the way so if we can get this one guys we go to 17 and 19 and we

Come home for six games six you know if we could somehow get this win and the sabes are going to have to have their aame to get this one they are and know this Penguins team though what the one good news guys the penguins have scored 116 goals in 37

Games the sabes in 39 games have scored 117 goals it’s a similar offense so far mind you we’ve let in 32 uh 31 more goals than they have so that’s been our issue of course uh we’ll have to see um things can change change guys things

Can change is what I’m saying but if we’re going to do this floating thing you guys know as well as me how frustrating that is as a fan I mean this thing about floating sooner or later you know your raft is going to get punctured and

You’re going to sink so we got to see if they do the Sabres have what it takes to really get it together because you know I was looking at them on the ice when I was at the Bell Center watching that game and I was watching the bench I was

Watching them talking to each other I was watching them really we’re into the game because they know that their season is hanging in the ballots right now very very thin chance to get in and they know they’ve put themselves there put this way guys an eight game

Winning streak you know we’re right back in the playoffs right can we take 10% of the season and take it back like that is the question you got to start somewhere and to get an eight game winning streak you got to win the first one well we won

The first one if we could win this one and go home and I know this is a very very slim hypothetical and sweep out all six games how would you guys feel about the season then that’s my question you know right then I think all of you would

Think we’re getting in that’s what hockey does it does that to you it makes you feel like my goodness all of a sudden the boys can just get in weird things can happen guys so don’t throw don’t throw in the towel yet I’ve seen some Sabers fans saying ah it’s

Over it’s over those are probably younger fans in their 20s that are used to this crap they’re used to this crap this this last decade I feel bad for them to be honest cuz since they’re kids this is what they’ve had as the Buffalo Sabers in their memories they haven’t

Had all those fun years guys you know so we got to be a little compassionate I think also with the younger folks cuz they’ve they’ve had it the hardest really since they kids all they’ve known is misery and um if we could get a a nice winning streak going guys a good

Winning streak then we’re back in this thing but we’ve got to get something going and if we don’t have what it takes to slap together a winning streak then of course they don’t deserve anything they don’t deserve anything but um I wish Adams would just be on the phone uh changing up whatever

Needs to be changed and stop with the uh and I’m not talking guys so much about the goal tending really am not I you know I can hack having the two young goalies for now you know we got to let them develop you know unfortunately this is where

We’re at we’re these these are our future we believe these are our future goalies Rosie what are you doing come here come here hold on guys there we go we have a little visitor this morning guys the amazing Rosie has come to see you to bring luck to all

Sabers fans they’re going to bring some luck today right yes Rosie says they’re going to get it done in Pittsburgh not to worry guys not to worry so if the boys can get this one done I you know I think we’ll feel a little better about whatever you know

But that six-g game home stretch put this way the way I’m thinking of it in my head is when that six games is over in Buffalo okay and this game here so we got seven we got to somehow be 500 by that point by the end of the six

Games that’s where we got to be at least cuz if we’re still under 500 and six more home games are wiped off the schedule less games still a distance it’s not good so we have to get rolling really right now I say the next 12 games but I’m talking

We we have the opportunities there guys if we were ever going to snap out of this home Funk which is around the corner the opportunity is in front of us a home stand is what can do it so we’ll see and a home stand guys I might add

With four teams that we should be able to beat so I’m going to leave it there guys I’m going to see you uh in the post game hopefully if I’m awake I should be awake but I’m just hoping the boys get it done in Pittsburgh because that would

Take so much for us I think not to win three in a row cuz they’re very aware in that dressing room guys they’re very aware they have one had a winning streak cuz really in my books you got to win three to have a winning streak I don’t

Count two as a streak of losing streak winning streak I don’t really count it a streak two you know setback or you know or are you is your team getting their act together it’s one or the other because when you look at this team right now they don’t feel like

Uh we don’t feel like they can do it but once they do it I think we’ll just feel relieved guys we lost eight in a row in regulation last year and still bounced back right so maybe we’ll have to look at that and see what are you

Doing she’s okay she says you’re going to have to get me out cu I want to go out so I’m going to get I’m going to take out Rosie guys um look if we can somehow walk away with this guys I’ll take the cheesy win today e I’ll take

The overtime shootout I’ll take the cheesy win as long as we walk away with the two points is all I care in this game I don’t care this is a game I don’t care about regulation as much I just want to get the two points and get the

Hell out and get back home and see what we can become in that six games I’m looking at that six games guys like a mini six game season that’s kind of how I’m looking at that six games I think that’s where it can change could I stress could not will

Could because this has been a brutal season guys a brutal season and um they give us some gifts every once in a while but you guys know what I’m talking about all right done I’ll finally shut up I’ll see you guys in the post game come on

Boys we need this one we need to have a chance of a of a winning streak coming home but if we don’t win this one guys that just means our evil twin showed up again what can we do see you Tonight

Hey all, the Sabres will once again attempt to win 2 in a row as they invade Pittsburgh to take on the a Penguins team who appears to have finally found their game..thanks for watching 😎
