    Pretty fucking sad when a sports team can't even use correct Engrish in it's 'mascot' name.

    Lack of depth just isn't an excuse come playoff time, On the Canes board we had a whole parade of Buffalo excuse makers. "If this" and "if that." Teams that lack depth come playoff time have only their front office to blame. It's either poor deadline planning, poor drafting, or poor player development. Injuries are the norm when April hockey comes around, and being deep enough to handle those injuries is a big part of winning the cup.

    Sorry if I hurt your feelings. :)

    using your logic (I use the term loosely), the Sabres should have traded (who?) for six solid blue-liners and kept them stashed at Rochester, in the event five would be lost to injury in the playoffs.

    you're a moron

    BWI,

    I am a Canes fan like you, but I have to side with Grid here. The Sabres lost those guys well past the deadline, and even lost McKee (I think) DURING the series with Carolina. Their d-corps was decimated, and no team, not even the Hurricanes, would have been able to withstand that.

    If Buffalo's "D" was even 75 percent healthy, the Sabres could have pulled it out--it wasn't like the Canes blew them away--the series went the distance.

    Henrik Tallinder broke his arm during that series as well.


    fwimfw, McKee was a gamer and blocked a ton of shots, but this guy Spacek is an upgrade, IMHMFO.
