I should keep track of points this team blows. I'll bet we can point to this bucket of missed opportunities at the end of the year when we finish 9th, a point or two out of 8th.
Last night we had this game. I was digging the effort after two periods so much, I wrote this entry praising my favourite whipping boys. Maybe that's what did them in because the third period became a shootout and the Sabres caught us from behind in overtime. That's one more point we had in our hand but failed to grasp.
It was damn exciting though. When Kilger scored those two goals, I leaped out of my seat. Unfortunately, Bryan McCabe is lobbying to become my new whipping boy. He might just get the gig.
