Eleven Posted February 24, 2019 Report Posted February 24, 2019 That was the best SabreSpace meetup ever. Well, except for the MODO one. So it was the second best? Out of three? @MODO Hockey you need to get here more often. 3 1 Quote
Broken Ankles Posted February 24, 2019 Report Posted February 24, 2019 Can anyone explain why Sobotka was on the ice with 2+ minutes to go in the game? He didn’t make any horrific mistakes....but wasn’t it more probable than not he would? I can see a path to his buyout in June. Quote

CallawaySabres Posted February 24, 2019 Report Posted February 24, 2019 Sounds like it was a sold game. We need to rip off 5 in a row now at least. Heading to Toronto on Saturday Quote
Broken Ankles Posted February 24, 2019 Report Posted February 24, 2019 Leafs had an emotional and physical game tonight against MTL, down 3-0 in the first coming back to win 6-3. But much closer than the score indicates. They are due to have a let down. Continue the momentum in Toronto. Quote
Doohicksie Posted February 24, 2019 Report Posted February 24, 2019 The Pens blew a late 2-goal lead in their stadium game against the Flyers. Come Philly, bring it home. Quote
Doohicksie Posted February 24, 2019 Report Posted February 24, 2019 ....and the Flyers win it in OT. ? Quote

Are the Sabres due for a letdown after a big win against the defending champs? Toronto has established a comfortable lead over MTL in third place, and will be a heavy favorite at home. A loss to Buffalo would not have the same effect as Buffalo losing to Toronto. Buffalo is expected to lose. Just saying that this dynamic could (not will) affect the Leafs mindset coming into the game. If anything, based on recent history and the Sabres inability to string back to back regulation wins I would expect them to follow that trend. But if the team has any mettle, this game (divisional opponent, road game, superior talent) could serve as a decisive rallying point. Before you can win 10, or 5 in a row, you need to win two. If they want to change the narrative, this situation sets up nicely....imho. Quote

In other words, a joke. Quote

What’s your source? Hopefully not the Harvard sports analysis that’s almost 10 years old and reviews only NFL, as does Football outsiders or Aaron Schotz. Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted February 24, 2019 Report Posted February 24, 2019 Nice to log on this afternoon after the emotional roller coast of yeaterday afternoon / evening to see a good win and that the gang enjoyed themselves at the game. And that no one was arrested, although it seems that dark was almost ejected for being verbose. Quote
