Chicago Blackhawks will travel to the Tampa Bay Lightning Wednesday night, 6-3-2015, at 8pm EST. Tampa holds home-ice advantage for the series, which may prove a curse in disguise for the young squad that has struggled at home. The teams played twice in the regular season, splitting the games 1-1. -Chicago won the first meeting 3-2 in a shootout in Chicago -Tampa won the second meeting 4-0 in Tampa Should be a helluva series, tons of offense and scoring chances by two really fun teams. I'll take Chicago in 7.

I know it is far to early but come on we are already discussing this in multiple places. Eichel/McDavid are fascinating prospects with franchise changing potential. We now know we have at least 3 first round picks in the 2015 draft with a possibility of at least 2 lottery shots. So this guy And this guy And that is just the top 2 guys. Here are some names to look up. http://www.draftsite.com/nhl/mock-draft/2015/ O and paraphrasing "You ain't seen nothin yet."

Well, let's get this thing over with. We all know what we have to do, 0-82, right? Auston Matthews is the only hope, we need good players not these guys. The coach sucks, the gm can only win trades, and we have no center depth. Let's be honest, this season is going to be rough, but we'll have our Carrion thread and..... Wait, wait a minute. Wait a goddamn minute. What am I talking about? We have center depth, we have stars, we have a new coach, and we have a gm who's trigger happy to get his guys and gives zero ######. This isn't a year to mourn, to wail against the inevitable and to gnaw our cheeks raw with frustration and inner turmoil. No, my friends, no I say! This is a year to rejoice! To drink deep the rebirth of Sabres hockey! To enjoy GDTs again, to have hockey discussions, and to screw off with Russian avatars, for we will not need them to occupy our time. IT HAS ARRIVED! REJOICE :beer: Watch this, but listen to this at the same time http://www.rickandbubba.com/goodies/legacy-sports-intro.mp3

So, I figured we could have a thread for stats specific to the Sabres, or even the league if you really want. Just somewhere to post all the graphs, charts, and other stats you find that you want to discuss or think sheds some light on what we see on the ice. I brought this post over from earlier to start it off This just in, we're really, scary good actually. But, unbearably unlucky PDO is the sum of a team's 5v5 shooting percentage (the number of goals they score divided by the number of shots on goal they generate) and their 5v5 save percentage (the number of shots their goalies stop divided by the number of shots on goal they allow). ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie “@Classlicity: Scoring Chances vs PDO thru 11/10. blank area "normal" colors very high/low. ” My fave coloured chart. More stuff (should we just make a thread for Sabres stats, or league stats?) Same chart, but analyzes our golies instead https://twitter.com/TSNBobMcKenzie/status/664506813082116097

So, what are your Halloween plans this year? To be honest I'm not really a big fan of this holiday, but my friends really like it so I'll end up going out to the city for the night. Going as Fry from Futurama this year; the foolishness and appearance is close enough, plus it's cheap as hell to go as him So, post/tell us your plans and what you're going as!

Septic 6 showdown in Air Canada Center tonight. Vamanos mis amigos.
