Game Thread: Wild VS Sabres - 7:30PM EST - The Return Of Pominville

[IPostedWhat]

Sabres 0 for 4 on the PP tonight, and I don't think they even had a shot on net on that last one?

Why don't more teams just fire the puck at the opposition's bench during line changes? Is it an unwritten rule not to?

Beats me, but why did the refs have to talk it over for over 3 minutes before deciding Buffalo gets the penalty?

7 Games - 7 Losses....and they have only scored 7 goals.

Next game is going for a Franchise Record of 8 consecutive losses to start a Season.

Congrats to the Wild and their fans. Good game.

Good night all.

At this point I really hope they don't win a game at all. If you are going to be bad, might as well go down as historically bad.

I have never seen a team so inept before. They make losing look like a work of art.

At least the Buffalo Bulls are winning.

I'm guessing there must be some rule against it, since you don't see it very often.

I don't KNOW but it does seem a reasonable assumption.

So the Wild did win?

As the grandson of a Minnesota native I was hoping they would, but couldn't get the game on my cable set-up.

Pommers must be happy as fuck right now?

1st trip back to Buffalo, he wins the game for the Wild, and his team is going in the right direction.

Kerry Fraser tweeted the too many men wasn't called because the puck hit Stafford's skate - it was because he engaged with a Wild player before leaving the ice (checking, initiating body contact, etc)

I didn't see it, but RJ and crew was saying that Stafford was being impeded by a Wild player when he was trying to get off the ice.

7's across - That's a winner in Vegas

Damn, I feel sorry for Buffalo fans... They deserve a winning team.

I saw Jeff O'Neill tweeted that the sabres were "classless" because they didnt have some sort of welcome back thing in the rink for Pomminville

i see he deleted that tweet ... was it because they actually did do something for Pomminville or because O'Neill was taking shit for talking out his ass again?

Buffalo News reporter wrote an article complaining about the same thing, so it's apparently true.

Not sure why he would have deleted the tweet though.

Somehow I don't think the Flames will have a "moment" to welcome back Jay Bouwmeester...
