SABRES RECALL TJ BRENNAN FROM ROCHESTER

from Mike Harrington of the Buffalo News, On the way to Chicago, here’s what I’m thinking after a wacky Monday night in Motown that was easily one of the worst Sabres road games I have ever seen. —-The Sabres have 36 goals in 20 road games. That’s pathetic. Period. —-Ryan Miller gave us more great quotes after the game. Sprinkled in an F-bomb too...

Lindy Ruff's emotions have gotten the better of him at times this season. Look, its understandable. Losing is a painful process. Pain is weakness leaving the body.Today after practice in Chicago, Ruff opened up and spoke about digging his team out of the sink hole that it presently resides in. Ruff also grabbed the back of Ryan Miller. The coach is right, one player does...

Trust me. I'm not Ryan Miller's PR man. I give him the gears when he deserves it. I prop him up when he deserves it. What a sickening spectacle. Ryan Miller's teammates quit on him. They lacked compete and passion. 24 minutes into this important game, the Sabres laid down for their Vezina goalie. Miller was chased from his net after surrendering 5 goals, one of...

Last week Lindy Ruff said that the team was healthy enough to start winning games, and that the injury excuse was not allowed to be used anymore.  Well, one has to wonder what the excuse for tonight’s performance is going to be after the Sabres were absolutely demolished by the Red Wings 5-0. It was the ninth straight road regulation loss for the Sabres – a franchise...

The Detroit Red Wings took a very, very late flight to Dallas on Red Bird II after absolutely stomping on the Buffalo Sabres, defeating Buffalo 5-0 and establishing a record-setting 15-game home ice winning streak before jetting off to face the Stars tonight (:30 PM, FSD/FS Southwest/WXYT). Usually, such an achievement would produce nothing less than elation from Red Wings fans...

The dumb luck continues for the Sabres. Another road game. Another loss. Another injury to a key blueliner Robyn Regehr. Another blast to the face for Thomas Vanek, who sustained facial damage when he was blasted in the face with a puck during the Islanders loss. Vanek demonstrated his "never say die attitude" when emerged from the trainer's room with a cage on...

There were six games on the NHL slate last night, a rather heavy amount for a Monday, and we saw at least one display of fine goaltending in every matchup. We saw three shutouts (almost four) in what quickly turned into a league-wide netminder clinic on Monday night. Amidst all the strong play between the pipes, we also saw two goaltenders that were not nearly up to the challenge...

Holy crap. Been awhile, eh? I run a tight ship around here, obviously. Obviously, I haven't posted since December 28th, closing in on three weeks. I assure you, it has nothing to do with you, and everything to do with a wonderful vacation to Florida to visit my parents. I did watch a Panthers game on TV while I was down there, before my dad changed the channel to Blue Bloods...

The Detroit Red Wings knew that they could do more than earn two points against the Buffalo Sabres on Monday night, but their 5-0 win over the Sabres involved trying to set up good work habits for a back-to-back slate which continues tomorrow in Dallas (8:30 PM EST, FSD) as much as it did with setting each other up for goal after goal against a defenseless Ryan Miller (with the emphasis...

Forward Drew Stafford sits at his stall in the Buffalo Sabres' envy-of-the-NHL extravagantly renovated locker room, attempting to keep his frustrations in check and hopes buoyed.

Henrik Zetterberg scored the first of Detroit's three goals in the opening period and the Red Wings broke a franchise record with their 15th straight home victory, a 5-0 win over the Buffalo Sabres on Monday.

The Detroit Red Wings and Buffalo Sabres couldn't be heading in more opposite directions right now.
