elj4176 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Posted March 16, 2012 Ah - I have been on here for a couple of years and have never noticed it. I should have searched the site for it first instead of just searching this thread. Oh well.
LastPommerFan Posted March 16, 2012 Report Posted March 16, 2012 CIGAM Numbers: - The numbers never go up, only down - Each Team's Number goes down for every point they earn - Each Team's Number goes down for every point the Sabres FAIL to earn. - When a team's number reaches 0, the Sabres can't catch them - Once 8 teams reach 0, the sabres are out - If the season ends with fewer than 8 teams with zero or lower numbers, the Sabres are in Rangers: 2 Pittsburgh: 6 Philly: 8 Devils: 10 Boston: 14 Ottawa: 15 Florida: 16 Washington: 19 Winnipeg: 23 Tampa: 26 Toronto: 27 Carolina: 28 Montreal: 30 Islanders: 30 Teams Clinched to finish ahead of the Sabres: none (yet) Since Winnipeg's # is higher than Washington's, we want a Winnipeg win in regulation.
carpandean Posted March 16, 2012 Report Posted March 16, 2012 Ah - I have been on here for a couple of years and have never noticed it. I should have searched the site for it first instead of just searching this thread. Oh well. No problem. The suggestion was still appreciated. It's often just provided as link without actually saying Sports Club Stats, so a search may not have revealed it anyway.
carpandean Posted March 17, 2012 Report Posted March 17, 2012 Jets hold on for the 3-2 regulation win!
TheMadCap Posted March 17, 2012 Report Posted March 17, 2012 Jets hold on for the 3-2 regulation win! Yup! Now it's up to the Sabres to win tomorrow!
JJFIVEOH Posted March 17, 2012 Report Posted March 17, 2012 So Boston now sits 7th in the conference, only 8 points up on BFLO. If the Caps win tonight, they will only be 3 points behind Boston. While highly unlikely, it is possible that Boston could miss the playoffs altogether while BFLO makes it. Boston, a team that went on a 21-2-1 run could miss the playoffs and a team that lost 12 straight road games in regulation, while going almost 3 months without winning consecutive games, could make it in. What a weird and wacky season to say the least. Boston finishes out the season against the Rangers, Senators, Penguins and Sabres.
carpandean Posted March 17, 2012 Report Posted March 17, 2012 Yup! Now it's up to the Sabres to win tomorrow! That was a game-in-hand against the Sabres for both teams, so we really need to look at Saturday (Sabres play) and Sunday (Washington and Winnipeg play) as one set. Best case: Sabres sit one behind Washington and one above Winnipeg; Worst case: Sabres sit five back of Washington and three back of Winnipeg. If it's the latter, then I'd pretty much be ready to throw in the towel.
nfreeman Posted March 18, 2012 Report Posted March 18, 2012 Tonight: Washington at Chicago -- high likelihood that Sabres will get help. Carolina at Winnipeg -- high likelihood that the Sabres won't get help. Most likely outcome at end of night: Winnipeg -- 78 pts Washington -- 78 pts Sabres -- 76 pts All with 10 games left. It's still very, very possible. Go Sabres.
deluca67 Posted March 18, 2012 Author Report Posted March 18, 2012 Tonight: Washington at Chicago -- high likelihood that Sabres will get help.

It's still very, very possible. Go Sabres. Clear you calender for April 7th. The last day of the season. Washington @ NY Rangers Tampa @ Winnipeg Buffalo @ Boston I am taking the 8th off. I expect an intense day of hockey and beer.
TrueBlueGED Posted March 18, 2012 Report Posted March 18, 2012 I hate the Sabres for putting me in the position of cheering for Carolina. Just thinking about it makes me want to vomit.
nfreeman Posted March 18, 2012 Report Posted March 18, 2012 Chicago beating Washington 2-0 in the first!
Randall Flagg Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Chicago with the en, 5-2 1 min. Left. It's over. Win in regulation against Washington, and we only need to out gain them by 1 point.
Wyldnwoody44 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 2-2 Winnipeg and Carolina 9 min to go in 2nd.. Dare I say, let's go Canes :/
tiredsounds Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 winnipeg might beat carolina, but the game itself could hurt winnipeg in the long run. bogosian absolutely nailed nodl midway through the second and got a 5 minute major & a game misconduct for it. he's got to be out for at least a couple more if shanahan has something even remotely close to a brain
wonderbread Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Carolina takes the lead with 1:28 left Canes win.
tiredsounds Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 ohhh carolina stole it! sabres are right back in it now
SwampD Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 ohhh carolina stole it! sabres are right back in it now That was a pretty good game. Staal is somethin' special.
OverPowerYou Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Thank you Patrick Kane and the Carolina Hurricanes! :worthy:
JJFIVEOH Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 WOOHOO!!!! Jets and Caps both blew their game in hand!!!
SwampD Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Can't ask for any more help than that. Eventually, we are going to have to not end up in a shootout.
nfreeman Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Can't ask for any more help than that. And yet, I suspect I'll be going to do so in the very near future... Back to regularly scheduled programming: Current status: Washington -- 78 pts Winnipeg -- 78 pts Sabres -- 76 pts All with 10 games left. Tomorrow night: Sabres at Tampa -- toss-up Washington at Detroit -- high likelihood that the Sabres will get help Potential standings after tomorrow night: Washington -- 78 pts -- 9 games left Sabres -- 78 pts -- 9 games left Winnipeg -- 76 pts -- 10 games left Tuesday night: Winnipeg at Pittsburgh It's all there for them. Are they going to step up and take it?
TheMatrix31 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 I'm not counting on the Red Wings right now. They've been sucking it up bigtime.
