This one was painful to watch. I had the luxury of watching it live from the second row of the 300 level of the HSBC Arena and it was not a fun game to watch.

From a malfunctioning HD camera that didn't provide the league the necessary replay to properly review what all 18,000+ in attendance could see was a goal in the first period to Alfredsson and Spezza tearing us a new asshole this game was a disappointment of huge proportions.

We tied it up in the third and it looked promising but too many cutesy, putesy plays and too many giveaways cost this team a game they deserved to win for 40 minutes of and lost it based on the middle 20.

With 3 minutes left and a 2-2 tie I had a guy feeling that this thing could only end bad. The Senators claimed yet another win from our grasps and continued their 10 game winning streak.

What was a 13 point cushion a few weeks ago is now a slimming 3 point lead with still two games in hand. Mike Grier and Tyler Myers were the two best players on the ice, unfortunately neither one of them can score you the goals you need to win and shouldn't be expected to.

Myers was one of one or two Sabres to jump Chris Philips after Philips plowed over Ryan Miller, why all five Sabres didn't jump Philips is beyond me, instead the 20 year old rookie went in and dropped his gloves.That should be a much different response.

Now is the time Darcy, find a move that will improve this team. All but two players at this point are off limits, Tyler Myers and Ryan Miller are untouchable, everyone else can be had if the price is right.

Make this team better Darcy!.
