The Kaleta – Penalties Drawn, Again

If you happen to read this on February 28th, you notice that my new feature Time Machine (left sidebar, towards the bottom) shows that a year ago I took a look at The Kaleta!’s skill at drawing penalties from opposing teams. Hitting Behind the Net again to check up on his numbers for this season, [...]

Gameday – Sabres at Islanders

You wouldn’t expect a game against a pathetic last-place team to matter much, but boy do the Sabres sure need these 2 points. Buffalo clings to the 8th and final playoff spot in the east only due to a tiebreaker win over the Hurricanes. Pittsburgh finally gained a bit and sit one point back. No [...]

Lalime Sucked It Up

…and he didn’t suck in the slightest, losing in a shootout (where none of the Sabres scored) and allowing only one goal in 65 minutes. Buffalo did not play the whole game again, allowing the ‘Canes to come back and tie things in the third. The Kaleta had the only Sabres goal, and ‘charged’ Brind’amour: [...]

5 Reasons Why the NHL Is Better Than The NBA

That’s the title to a piece from Mark Ecko’s Complex.com, running down 5 ways the NHL outdoes the NBA. Ovechkin figures prominently, Crosby? Not at all. Nice. h/t again to Alanah at KK. She’s killing it today.

Lalime Era May Be Interrupted

According to Lindy Ruff (via the Buffalo News), Patrick Lalime awoke last night with flu symptoms and did not practice today. He is questionable for tomorrow night’s game. Even worse, all the other Portland goalies are injured so there’s no one for their games this weekend so far. Practice consisted of Jhonas Enroth at one [...]

Gameday – Ducks at Sabres

The (hopefully brief) Patrick Lalime era begins tonight, as the Ducks visit the Sabres for a 7pm game at the Arena. Lalime was actually in net against Anaheim on the west coast swing, losing 3-2 but stopping 34 of 37 shots. He’s played well enough against the Ducks (2.4 GAA, .916 SP) so this might [...]

No Seriously, Thanks a LOT

I laughed at that a lot more than I should have, I think. Unfortunately, viewing that led to this showing up in the related vids. (mind scrubbing may be needed afterwards, beware)

Pittsburgh Museum Fun

I wanted to get the pictures up (especially for cute kid pictures), so I’m tossing these up with little commentary. Thomas and his cousins visited the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh and the Carnegie Museum of Natural History (also in Pittsburgh) this weekend. We pretty much have to go to the ‘chil-seum’ every time, and added [...]

Still Not Panicking

…but I will admit to some nerves. I go away for a weekend, and Miller gets hurt. I knew Mattie was a good luck charm, but had no idea that their luck would be so bad without her. I was in Pittsburgh as I mentioned Thursday, and didn’t get to see either the Flyers game [...]

Gameday – Sabres at Flyers

Buffalo travels to Philly tonight to take on the Flyers, and should have Paul Gaustad in the lineup. That means Nathan “the E is NOT silent’ Gerbe is back in Portland. The Sabres stand 3 points back of the Flyers in the standings, and can move up on Florida, Montreal, and the Rangers also. Chicago [...]
