The Sabres would not survive any game of the playoffs I've seen so far this year. They would be beaten into oblivion. 

Pretty much. They need an element they lack at the moment to play in the playoffs

The fourth and fifth goal looked like total domination. I felt like I was watching the 80’s Islanders.

Fun, fast game. I think the Golden Knights will have an answer for them next game.

And not the ridiculousness they resorted to tonight, smh

Reaves is a piece of shat that shouldn't even be in the league. Should get 10 games, probably gets 2 or 3 and he will appeal it.

The thing is, Vegas gets better because they will replace him with someone that knows how toplay hockey.

Boston is really playing Bruin hockey now. They've completely smothered the Isles for the last several minutes. I don't think the puck has crossed center ice in ten minutes. They might not win, but they're absolutely dominating right now.

Not that he is going anywhere, but I’d love JG Pageau on the Sabres,  and I’d kill for a 4th line like Clutterbuck, Martin and Cizikas. 

They'll need the equivalent when they make the playoffs.

We aren't nearly good enough of a team to have Martin or Clutterbuck. I don't mind Cizikas though.

Yup. Earlier in a free agent related thread I was saying we should try to land Cizikas if he'd come, which I doubt. 

Was a really good close game. So many hits, and speaking of 4th lines we could have (snicker) did you notice how this Curtis Lazar guy throws the puck in and plays hit the D man first a lot? Guy likes to throw his body around. We could use a guy like that too :)

 

and just SO glad the Laughs did it again.

Interesting comment I saw on twitter. Only 1 of the top 10 salaries in the NHL is still playing hockey in these playoffs, and that is Carey Price.  

Proof that the superstar model doesn't work in a cap league? 

This is more along the line of proof that good teams lock up their star players early to team Friendly deals. Tampa, Colorado, Carolina, and Boston all fit this mold. Not only do they all have multiple star players better than our unhealthy Eichel (and arguably out healthy Eichel) but each and every one of them comes with a cap hit less than Kyle Okposo (dont fact check that statement). It’s what teams would have said about Reinhart if we had half a brain anytime in the last five years.

Proof that the superstar model doesn't work in the playoffs when they don't adhere to the established rules for calling the game

FTFY.

Also, Crosby and Malkin say "hello"

I think what it proves is that there is more than 1 successful model in the league.
