Game 42: Buffalo Sabres vs Toronto Maple Leafs W2-0

[pnjunction]

Other than that off-setting minor, we took no penalties did we??

Nope.  Good discipline shelters the PK again.

Lots of hard effort tonight! Always nice to beat the Sabres...

Yep it ranks right up there with beating the canucks, turds, and habs

That is how you win a hockey game.

I'm trying this thing where I avoid the boards and posting during the game and it seems to be working!

They seem to really like him. I think I will also.

Boy, it's great to see them string 4 consecutive wins in a row.  In succession, to boot!

 

[sneakyray]

woohoo...6th place!

Solid defensive effort, Komi looked like a stud out there.  I wonder if there is something to be said with this more physical group of 6 d with the likes of Komi and Aulie back in as compared to finesse guys like Liles and Gardiner.  I do like both of these guys though.

Phaneuf, Komi, Aulie, Schenn and Franson are some pretty big bodies and Gunner certainly isn't small and plays a steady d.

Gustavsson's 32 save shutout

13-7-0 2.91 GAA and .908 SV% on the season
4-0-0 1.51 GAA and .950 SV% in January

9-3-0 2.33 GAA and .932 SV% in 12 appearances since taking his job back from Scrivens on November 19th against Washington
9-2-0 2.27 GAA and .934 SV% in 11 starts since taking his job back from Scrivens on November 19th against Washington

It's nice to see the team giving him some goals and a little D support anyway. They never seemed to have done that before - or at least consistantly.

would be nice to see him keep that GAA below 3 ..he really seems like he's getting comfortable in there ..hopefully his heart holds out!

Gustavsson's definitely making me eat my words about him from earlier in the season, and I couldn't be happier about it.

 

[Edeagle]

missed most of this one.. Gardiner a scratch?

 

[crazyperfectdevil]

yeah with komisarek back they've been using Aulie instead

 

[bustaheims]

Tonight's win puts the Leafs 7 games above the .500 mark for the first time since the end of the 06-07 season.

Komisarek did the same for me tonight. He looked great out there.

10 pages is pretty baron, where did all the fans go?

crossing my fingers for a gustavsson shut out

I usually am not nitpicky, but this is twice now and it bothers me for some reason. The word is barren, not baron.

Don't hate me.

Also, take that NHL.  Gustavsson's tied for 29th in the NHL in SV%
