  1. Lol he put Scheifele on his arse too
  2. Should be the OG version but that’s the best goal song
  3. Goatheads and being ok with your goalie being your best player.
  4. Hellebuyck being on the bench today will give him a first hand opportunity to learn something from UPL
  5. Right, on the same page then. I’m not resetting/canning KA this summer even if given the choice
  6. much wallowing my winnipeg? me whooping. 4-3 buffalo
  7. This makes me sound borderline insane. Lol I guess? Lol. Didn’t realize it had that “cutting off your ear for passion” vibe
  8. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/vVm8NMgVndwiyQKj/?mibextid=I8mCmY&startTimeMs=65000
  9. I agree with this: but I think there’s a chance he doesn’t make the same mistake twice re: his operations this offseason fool me once..
  10. To what, make it to the arena without getting lost? Probably
  11. Doing something stupid mathematically would he apropos for a team that’s behaved stupidly mathematically for 13 years
  12. I’m not an analytical nerd. A nerd, sure I try to take a wholistic approach to the data/experience It’s tough to divine much from our interactions because it mostly just involves you giving my posts eye rolls but yes, if you are the “my expectation is 2024/25 guy”: great. You’ve called your shot. I respect that
  13. This is ridiculous, and kinda hurts coming from you I make it a point to set expectations before the season and don’t shift: literally quoting you in another thread about how I refuse to back down from what we said was the expectation this year. I call my shots. I refuse not to. If we miss this year, we have failed. Saying I think we can make it is not a flip flop
  14. Devils and Caps both lost today already what are we even doing here? Yes we can make it I’m telling you - the teams above us are objective ass so much of the “math in undoable” stuff comes from thinking we need to hit 95 points. 90 might get in. 90 the math isn’t great but these teams are defying already low expectations! Surely, surely a concept we Sabres fans plenty of training in - - - Peguins have the same amount of points as us. Devils (losing) will have a mere 2 more Caps (lost) have 3 more Islanders have 4 more …if the Sabres win today, we are *two points* clear of ONLY looking up at WC2. Are people just refusing to look at the standings? “All these teams we need to pass.” We will have 20 games to gain 2 points (the amount for 1 win) if we secure the dub today. Would be 1 back of Wash and 2 back of the Islanders. We’d be 8 back of Tampa with a game in hand. We’d be 8 back of Detroit and play them 3 times
  15. That’s not true by points percentage. We’ve gained a fair bit on the 4 teams in between and a bit on Tampa too
  16. I absolutely agree. The math seems a tad wonky to me too. I get the “4 teams to leapfrog” thing but these guys are like 2-4 points up on us now. Coming into season we don’t say, “well, we are competing with 8 other teams for WC2, the odds of outplaying all 8 aren’t good.” If we are better we are better. It’s not exactly that situation with those teams right now but it’s close: they are only a couple points up and there’s 25% of a season left. can we real in Tampa or Detroit? Strictly possible
