    B's play NYI four times this month!!
    Wow, 8 possible points.
    Could put us BACK IN A PLAYOFF SPOT!!
    We're only 6 points behind TB and HAR.
    We still have to play those teams too.
    
    (Only half-kidding. Now I suppose someone will point out that
     a first round series against Philly would be a tough one.)
                                     
    
131.2Do what the Pens did to get Mario; LOSE!KAOFS::WATTERSTue Mar 04 1997 12:437
    Isles own the Leafs 1st pick and their own in this year's draft.
    
    If the B's beat them, the Isles are possibly looking at getting the
    #1 and 2 picks (Thornton & Samsonov). The real winner will be the 
    'loser' of those 4 games. :*)

131.3Here's hoping the boys do something rightDONVAN::R_PLOURDETue Mar 04 1997 12:445
    
    sure fire way to get the 1st overall pick in the up coming draft is 
    to lose to the NYI.

    ..."Here we LOSE, Broons, Here we LOSE!"
    
    lose these fer us, willya?  I only wanna see one more "W" this season
    (March 24th, up in ol' Montreal....wouldn't be a weekend in Montreal
    w/ out a "W" (so's the Montreal Gazette can call us "the most obnoxious
    fans this side on the English Soccer League").....

131.5Not quite Mac..ASDG::JOHNSONwraflc::gamesThu Mar 06 1997 09:066
    Mac....English Soccer fans are not obnoxious...they're known as
    hooligans and having sat through several games while in England I can
    vouch for them being hooligans. They make the Ruins fans look like
    choir boys.
    
    Jerry
131.6That's what they called us...ASDG::MCNAMARAstrange visitor......Thu Mar 06 1997 09:2514
    ....well, Jerry....thx fer the info....although 'twas the Gazette that
    called us that 2 years ago on a weekend trip....not me....just stating
    was wuz printed.....if we're "choir boys", what are the Whale-fans???
    
    hmmmmmm????
    
    No onto this game:  I got a 4-letter word for tonight, and it ain't
    "work".....can U say....
    
    "LOSE"?????
    
    we want Thornton....sounds like a nice Irish boy already......

131.7It's all what you compare us toDIVER1::MACHADOCrazy on a ship of foolsThu Mar 06 1997 10:476
    	Well, fans who are "cheering" would look rowdy next to a stadium
    full of insurance company executives who sit on their hands and wonder
    what the hell is going on out on the ice like in Hahtfid.

131.8Lacher! Lacher! Lacher!ASDG::JOHNSONwraflc::gamesFri Mar 07 1997 08:2722
    re: Barry & Mac (sounds like a vaudville act doesn't it?)
    
    Well I'd rather be sitting in the stands in Hartford than in the zoo in
    Bawstan. When I get the time I'll post my last experience in the
    Bawstan Gahden with my son...it's not pretty. So whatever rocks your
    boat etc.....
    
    Onto to last night's debacle....Are you guys sure that that's not
    Blaine Lacher in net wearing a Jim Carey sweater????? Nice move Harry!
    
    But seriously, I caught the highlites on ESPN last night and can't
    believe what happened to Cap'n Ray. They showed him crawling off the
    ice. Now I am proud to be a Ruins hater but Bourque is the only class
    player you have and to see him down like that hurts.....I guess he took
    a shot from a teammate off of the back of his skate. OUCH! Back in the
    summertime you had 3 class players, Neeley, Oates, and Bourque....how
    much longer is Cap'n Ray going to put up with this shit?
    
    And as for the draft.......well I'm betting that Harry will screw it up
    royally for you.

131.9oh, here we go...ASDG::MCNAMARAstrange visitor......Fri Mar 07 1997 09:1520
    ...well, well, Jerry...fellin' yer oats this a.m., are ya?
    
    I've been to Haht-fid many times, and none have been memorable...
    in fact the last time I was there (last year), this guy and his woman
    were giving us the finger all night (unprovoked, BTW)....had beer
    thrown on the guy behind me (again, unprovoked)....the fans know
    more about Jai-Lai than they do about hockey, lemme tell ya Jer....
    and so Carey suked again...he's gonna get better, this year is a wash,
    and rightly so....we needd to rebuild big-time...and if PinHead
    doesn't get it right this time, us B's fans won't put up with
    it anymore, B-lieve me Jer....it's a a boiling point already....
    if ya don't B-lieve me, just tune around the dial (AM or FM), and
    just listen to the anger being spewed....
    
    
    the Whale is only 5-6 "W"'s ahead of this team, so I don't see too
    much to be proud of Jerry...now, if you were a Sabres fan, you'd have
    a legitimate reason to slack us.....please.....

nine replies, all inane drivel, goes the same for the
game last night,, saw the second and third peroid sort of
have hearted watched it..  not really interested anymore,
actually waiting for this long painful season to end..

BUT!!  What happened to Bourque ? Didn't see him last night..

131.11Injured his foot/ankleSTAR::DEAN_GFri Mar 07 1997 12:437
Bourque took a slatshot to the inside of his foot from Brian Smolinski.  It
looked real bad, but the xray showed no broken bones.  Deep bruise is what they
are calling it.

Day to day.

hurting already, and 'now with Bourque out,,,,'
