SwampD Posted February 6, 2023 Report Posted February 6, 2023 I feel like I'm out of the loop here. Why aren't the Sabres playing this week? 1 Quote

Because the NHL thought it was a great idea to give proper coverage to the World Dart Championships while the NFL was on break...and not to their own sport - idiots 3 Quote
Doohicksie Posted February 6, 2023 Report Posted February 6, 2023 Doesn't every team get a "bye week" now? The Sabres' happens to be adjacent to the all star break... Is that it? Quote

Yes.  It is in the most recent CBA; there is a five day break for all teams. 1 Quote
thewookie1 Posted February 6, 2023 Report Posted February 6, 2023 Every team had their bye week connected to the All Star break this year. Half had it prior, half had it after 1 1 2 Quote

Half had it prior, half had it after kind of defeats the purpose of a bye week for half the teams to have it overlap w/ the break. a bye week is great if you're injured... but for the other 90% just battling general fatigue, anything after 5 or 6 days off is excessive. what a disadvantage to half these teams including us Quote

Marvin Posted February 7, 2023 Report Posted February 7, 2023 It is sooooooooo refreshing to look at the standings and try to figure out playoff scenarios instead of draft scenarios. 2 Quote

Not sure how I missed that. Bye week was implemented in the 2016/2017 season. It was a concession by the league to the NHLPA in exchange for the players agreeing to a 3 on 3 format for the All Star game. Quote

Like others are saying, just win. If they win a few in a row, the other teams will feel the heat. Quote
