inkman Posted March 4, 2019 Report Posted March 4, 2019 (edited) Our furious race to 9th place has begun. The worst part is even if they spiral out of control and lose the majority of their remaining games, there are 5 teams they have almost no chance of surpassing in draft order.

CallawaySabres Posted March 4, 2019 Report Posted March 4, 2019 Maybe the crowd can start the McDavid chant....a la Takeo Spikes, and when he has finally had it with the Oil, we can trade our whole team for him Quote

Doohicksie Posted March 4, 2019 Report Posted March 4, 2019 2 hours ago, New Scotland (NS) said: MUST WIN!! Yes, I'll root for them to win, but the loss to Toronto the other night cemented it for me: I no longer harbor any hope that the playoffs are within reach for this team, this year. It isn't just that the lost to the Leafs twice recently. The Leafs are a better team this year and while I would like to see the Sabres give them a run for their money, we're just not there yet. But what the second Leafs loss made me do is go back and look at recent games. Since mid-February, the Sabres lost 4 games to the teams just behind them in the standings. 0-4. And look, the Sabres are 8 points out of a playoff spot. If they could have taken care of business against lesser competition there would be hope for this team, but when other teams are surging trying to make the playoffs, the Sabres are swooning. So yeah, they're not mathematically eliminated yet, so MUST WIN, but they lost their shot over the last three weeks. go sabres. 1 Quote

In the end IF (and I suspect you are correct that they won't) the Sabres don't make it ... the bolded statement was their ultimate undoing. That said, GO SABRES!! 1 Quote

That Aud Smell Posted March 4, 2019 Report Posted March 4, 2019 Obliged to attend tonight for something sorta work-related. It's a Monday night. I will likely try to find an excuse to leave early. Or maybe just pull an Irish goodbye. Quote

CallawaySabres Posted March 4, 2019 Report Posted March 4, 2019 Edmonton win could get them closer in draft standings. The desire for playoffs has left now that we are 1 point from 12th in the conference. Wow, what a freaking implosion that was..... Quote
