Randall Flagg Posted December 8, 2014 Report Posted December 8, 2014 I honestly have no idea if they actually won or lost after reading that post in this thread They actually won, and CHL-lost. :)
Brawndo Posted December 8, 2014 Report Posted December 8, 2014 Edmonton wins tonight vs. San Jose 2-1 :beer: Voting for San Jose to be the least valuable player of the CHL Actually they lost in CHL Terms!! Sweet none the less!!
WildCard Posted December 8, 2014 Report Posted December 8, 2014 I honestly have no idea if they actually won or lost after reading that post in this thread Apparently I don't either :lol: Actually they lost in CHL Terms!! Sweet none the less!!
Taro T Posted December 8, 2014 Author Report Posted December 8, 2014 Current standings through games played 12/7. Team ----- GP - L - W - OT - PTS Edmonton 27 15 7 5 35 Buffalo 27 16 9 2 34 Arizona 28 15 10 3 33 Carolina 26 15 8 3 33 Columbus 26 15 9 2 32 Colorado 27 12 9 6 30 Winnipeg 27 9 14 5 23 Florida 25 7 11 7 21 Only 1 team (Candy Canes) in action Monday night but they're hosting a team that has submitted an application for CHL membership (Joisey). Could be interesting.
Brawndo Posted December 9, 2014 Report Posted December 9, 2014 Candy Canes and Cats with wins tonight. Not much help with CHL tonight

Rare game where defending CHL champs hosting defending NHL champs. Sabres need to keep to the level they displayed down in FLA.
pi2000 Posted December 9, 2014 Report Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) PHI @ CBJ tonight, hoping for a 1 point game. other CHL matchups include EDM @ SJ and NSH @ COL. An EDM loss or tie combined with a BUF win, would put BUF back atop the CHL. Edited December 9, 2014 by pi2000
Hoss Posted December 10, 2014 Report Posted December 10, 2014 Would've been a good night for a win with Columbus losing in OT over Philly and Washington losing. Jersey got a point, too. A bunch of teams on the CHL cusp with losses tonight... But the Sabres continue to show you that they only know how to ###### up. For the record, Enroth and Neuvirth are really not THIS good. Teams seem to just think they can pepper shots on and have one go in. These are still NHL players. You have to pick your spots and create good scoring chances.
3putt Posted December 10, 2014 Report Posted December 10, 2014 Listening to Ennis' postgame he sounds like they are buying in. They won't make the playoffs but they can seriously screw up the tank with that kind of attitude.

Kings rarely win in Buffalo - Buffalo usually puts up a ton of goals on them. I suppose the way they've played of late, the 1 spot counts as 'a ton'. It's a long season. Sabres being done w/ LA & SJ is good for the tank. They were pretty much guaranteed to lose at least 5, if not 7, CHL points in the 4 games. Now they only have to find 2-3 they should have dropped to be back on pace. ;)

It seems like every series against every team they play is lopsided in Buffalo's favor. It's like we dominate every team but still suck.
pi2000 Posted December 10, 2014 Report Posted December 10, 2014 Sabres getting thoroughly dominated in shots/Corsi yet still finding a way to lose by one goal... EDM and CAR out shooting their opponents on a regular basis yet finding ways to get one goal wins. Things have to start evening out... Right? Right!?

Looking to stretch their lead vs Anaheim.
respk Posted December 10, 2014 Report Posted December 10, 2014 Really hope Murray executes a trade or two shortly. He needs to take the steam out of these wins and get them back to the top of the standings. One or both of the goalies, Stewart, Myers and Stafford would be a start and then see where the team is in mid January. I sure hope they don't screw this up. I'd like to see Myers and a goalie sent to Edmonton. Helps the Sabres and hurts Edmonton tank efforts.

Other than enroth none of the pending ufa guys are doing anything. The best players have been risto, zad, Myers, Girgs, Ennis and moulson. All of those guys may be part of the long term answer. It was mentioned by someone that they heard ted black talk about possibly letting zad play for Russia in the wjc. That could be spun as a developmental move and help the tank over the short term. Not much else can be done except hope enroth falls back to earth.

The games are played on paper synthetic ice, in parents' basements, by snorting guys with slide rules and greasy hair.

Trading him puts this team in the driver seat for DFL.
Hank Posted December 10, 2014 Report Posted December 10, 2014 Good, trade him today. Stupid ###### sabres!

TrueBlueGED Posted December 10, 2014 Report Posted December 10, 2014 As Aaron Rodgers would say, everyone needs to r-e-l-a-x. Relax, we'll be fine.
Derrico Posted December 10, 2014 Report Posted December 10, 2014 I'd be on board with an Enroth trade.
