JG Pageau...healthy scratch a few times late in the season and now playoff shutdown defender. 

I really liked that Bergevin quote from the other day. Something like "there are players that get you to the playoffs, and then their are players that carry you through them." 

Speaks to the whole culture/style/direction stuff from other threads. Pageau was dominant in the face off circle against Bergeron. Quite an accomplishment, but of course face offs don't matter 🙂

It always baffled me, cause the stats don’t tell half the story with regards to faceoffs.

But anyone who’s ever lost two defensive zone draws in a row and chased possesion, knows.

It's two different games. It remains to be seen who will step up and into which role for the Sabres in the playoffs but they definitely need to sign some of this year's performers to build a playoff roster.

The Habs - almost certainly the worst team to make the playoffs this year - have not trailed in a game for something like the last 337 minutes according to SportsNet.  In spite of being a Sabres fan, sometimes the NHL is fun.  Or maybe funny.

I told people before this series the Habs would win. The Habs aren’t the worst team the Jets are

Jets look lost. They really have no answers.

Cuthbert is great.  We're stuck with Adam somebody on NBCSN. Last shift really shows how Winnipeg is so lost.

Two Jets try to drill Perry at the line and he simply pulls up and lets them run into each other.  Hilarious.

OK - Habs > Jets.  But the Jets swept the Oilers.

Yeah.  Not sure who Adam is, but the color commentator is former (briefly) Sabre Dominic Moore.  They are truly bad, but at least now they aren't trying to pleasure the Loafs with every passing breath.

Though, did get a kick out of their "Willie Nylander is their best player."  "Why, oh, why, won't they play Spezzz more."  And, "This is shocking.  Truly shocking."

The entire division is bad the Habs just know how to play playoff hockey

It is definitely looking like their "built for the playoffs" comments were not just words. There is perhaps a lesson in this for KA to learn.

It’s gonna be near impossible to score 2 more on Price this period, I don’t care how many Appletons you have 

Well, they aren't getting 3 more.
