This game was definetly different from the Bears first game! I never was able to gain any momentum. New York pretty much dominated me most of the game. Shots were almost even(YAY!). Time on attack went to NYR. Both of NYR power play goals were off of bad line changes by me. I need to work on those especially on the PP! In the 3rd period Kyle Quincey ripped one from the point that was deflected by Brooks Laich and it hit the post. Bummed....but very cool! On to the next game!

Another OT winner for the Bears and a shorty no less! I am having a heck of a time scoring. I have yet to score a PP goal. I am seeing some improvement so hopefully I'll start to pick up the scoring. These tight defensive games are fun but man alive, lol! Bure has yet to find the score sheet....Carlson has been huge! Shots were almost even and they beat me again in time on attack.

Buffalo Sabres vs. Washington Capitals

1st Period

None

2nd Period

Buf. - Paetsch (Connolly, Lydman) (SH)

3rd Period

Buf. - Rivet (Lydman, Vanek) (EN)

Buffalo 3 - Washington 1

Three Stars

3. Toni Lydman
2. Nathan Paetsch
1. Ryan Miller

Only positive from the game: Ovie, Backstrom and Tait dominated on about 90% of their shifts. Lots of opportunities but they couldn't seal the deal. I'm starting to get a little frustrated with the lack of scoring. Maybe I shouldn't be playing on Superstar? Still have not scored a power play goal with either the Bears or Caps. I would say I'm about 0 for 20. That's all for tonight....gotta sleep

Updates would maybe be better if it had pictures and team logos

Tough loss to Buffalo, eventhough its preseason.

Thanks for the comments...but...

I mentioned in a previous post that for the preseason I'm not doing any write ups or putting a lot of time into them. Once I start the season I will be doing a much better format with those games.

Thanks for following

Sorry OBG I didn't see this post. Man...Bure had a really good season for you. I dunno if my version will duplicate that. We shall see. So far he's pointless in the preseason
