Yes. I believe she will make the playoffs but I’m not sure about her T&AA (play on GAA). Regardless, she will probably go deep.

Oh, I wasn’t suggesting any “stronger line-up” wish.  I have no answer for you in that context.

The thought occurred to me as the crowd roared its appreciation for the Sabres and their effort.   I remember Weber enduring the pain and ignominy of the hometown fans cheering Sam Gagner’s’ overtime goal in Buffalo during the tank.  Front offices tank, not players.  Weber, the warrior, suffered that most terrible double pain of the wound, itself, and the knowledge that it occurred during an unworthy pursuit.

My fantasy for Weber?  We beat Arizona, take Dylan Strome 3rd, improve to the point of not getting Dahlin, and Weber’s on the third pair during last night’s win.  An old school honorable route to the same place.

Full disclosure -  while i didn’t cheer Gagner, I was sure glad we didn’t screw up the tank, once it was underway.  I would confess to Weber ... once the die was cast, I sold my soul.

Ah -- I was being snarky. But it's true --- Weber didn't deserve that; none of our veterans did. We should have moved him as soon as we moved our other vets to springload the tank.
