frustrated

Yes, I know my hometown team the Buffalo Sabres have an Eastern Conference best 74 points but its hard to summon up anything other frustration after they yet again blew a lead to the New Jersey Devils last night.

It seemed like the only player pouring his heart out there was Chris Drury, the rest of the team looked lost and confused going into the third period; now becoming the death knell of this team. And then there's Ryan Miller. How can someone look so brilliant one moment look completely average the next? He seems shaky and too emotional to be in net right now.

This team is obviously going to make the playoffs, they probably will finish first. However, its difficult to look ahead and see us beating teams who are just hungrier. Then again, this could all be paranoia.

Atlanta is next and I am sure they are licking their chops.
