By recency bias you mean people being conned into thinking this team isn't complete garbage by a small run of good results every single team has every season correct?

Big picture: We are bottom of the east and 4th from bottom overall. We somehow are out of the playoff race in a year where almost every team in the east still has a shot.

The Blackhawks will be back in the playoffs before the Sabres are.

Mike's plan to make the NHL the most popular sports league in America: 1)Bring back the Hartford Whalers. That is all.

When a player falls as hard as Cozens has the past 2 seasons my first thought is the rest of the league has figured him out and he has no idea what to do.

Yes, then they would have one guy (Ovie) as opposed to the Sabres with 3.

You'll never guess how many players from the best team in the league based on point percentage are participating in this tournament...

I mean it's not like he literally prevented a goal with an amazing defensive play or something... Oh.

The comment is even funnier when you recall the play where McDavid was 1v1 with Dahlin and McD decided he wasn't getting by him and resorted to dump and chase instead of attempting a zone entry.

The idea that an NHL GM would constantly spend well below the cap ceiling and refuse to weaponize cap space for assets/trades of his own volition and not at the behest of ownership IS the insane conspiracy theory. We are a poverty franchise and will continue to be for the foreseeable future (ie: all the cost overruns on the Bills stadium are paid off).

Those teams won in spite of Appert. Leone is getting better results with significantly less talent than Seth had.
