kas23 Posted February 14, 2015 Report Posted February 14, 2015 Two absolute ###### goals given up by Fasth. This ones over. Edm still has some fight left in them, despite our fire sale. This isn't going to be till it's over.
Hoss Posted February 14, 2015 Report Posted February 14, 2015 The way I look at it when viewing the actual standings: anybody that has more points than we are currently on pace for are unreachable. That's 23 of 29 other teams. So the only teams I see as "in it" are Columbus, New Jersey, Toronto, Arizona, Carolina and Edmonton. The last four being the only actual potential threats, but Toronto is a reach at this point, too. Arizona getting some points recently is HUGE because they are prepared for a late-season run.
Hoss Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 Not a great night in the CHL. Toronto gets a point but otherwise it's looking like a sweep. Edmonton and Columbus already won. Carolina and Arizona on their way. New Jersey tied in the third.
Brawndo Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 Sabres are going to have to take care of their own business in the CHL. Oilers and Yotes exploded for victories today.
LastPommerFan Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 You owe me a new keyboard! never take a sip before reading an X post.
shrader Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 I take umbrage with this. This thread is way more entertaining than a Sabre game. The thread itself is great. That specific conversation itself was the December CHL losing streak.

Sabres need to take the zilch to keep pace w/ everyone else this weekend. Would have the added bonus of pulling away from the Loafs and Phlyers. 1st game post-trade for Buffalo.
LastPommerFan Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) I have tickets to tomorrow's CHL Masterpiece. I cannot attend. The tickets are free. PM me if you are interested. 2 tickets, 300 level behind the shoot twice net. Is it extra sad that they may only actually get 2 shots on that net? Edited February 15, 2015 by Glass Case Of Emotion

Hoss Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 Wednesday March 4th is the only day for the rest of the season that none of the current members of the Carrion League play. I think there were maybe four days the entire rest of the season where there wasn't at least two playing.
Hoss Posted February 16, 2015 Report Posted February 16, 2015 Too tight tonight. Bogosian seems to have given the team some problems in their quest for success. Will it last? We will see.
calti Posted February 16, 2015 Report Posted February 16, 2015 Looks like bogosian will be out with a strained something soon
WildCard Posted February 16, 2015 Report Posted February 16, 2015 Good win vs a middle team here. It's important to pick up these kind of points as our schedule is pretty soft compared to BP Oil IIRC
GrassValleyGreg Posted February 16, 2015 Report Posted February 16, 2015 Some positives to come out of a victory. That's the best we can ask for.
3putt Posted February 16, 2015 Report Posted February 16, 2015 Looks like bogosian will be out with a strained something soonThere are only three choices upper body, lower body or flu like symptoms. Pick one.
calti Posted February 16, 2015 Report Posted February 16, 2015 There are only three choices upper body, lower body or flu like symptoms. Pick one. flu-like symptoms...that's the ticket

Only 3 CHLers in action Monday, but they are all solidly jello - Eulers, Candy Canes, and Desert Dogs. Hopefully , or better yet all, conjure up their inner NHLer and find a way to put up goose eggs. It'll be tough, but it would be awsome.
WildCard Posted February 16, 2015 Report Posted February 16, 2015 I know the chart is right Taro, but it's a little misleading in this case. Sabres are (regular speak) 6 points back from the Oilers, whereas in CHL their 4 ahead. Nitpicking I know, just trying to say our situation is a little bit better than the CHL standings indicate.

Sabres are (regular speak) 6 points back from the Oilers, whereas in CHL their 4 ahead. Nitpicking I know, just trying to say our situation is a little bit better than the CHL standings indicate. That's the point of the CHL standings. The real standings are almost an assumption. The CHL standings are legitimate. We've got a game in hand and need to make it happen to earn the six-point separation. It's not misleading in any way that the regular standings aren't "misleading."
Brawndo Posted February 16, 2015 Report Posted February 16, 2015 Neuvirth is 10-0 in last ten starts, can he keep up the torrid pace?

Nitpicking I know, just trying to say our situation is a little bit better than the CHL standings indicate.How is it misleading? The Sabres have squandered a CHL best 77 points in 1 fewer game than the 73 points the Eulers gave flushed down the crapper. The Sabres can't take credit for squandering the 2 points in hand until they venture to the swamps of Joisey (at the earliest) and actually squander them. It's the same way the Sabres couldn't say they're only 4 points back of the Oilers in the NHL until they've gotten an (NHL-style) win.

Yeah I realize that now, Tank has taught me the meaning of the word "misleading" :oops: Fair enough Just glanced at it quick and got mixed up in thinking about it like the regular standings.
