Got one Florida monkey off our back, time for the other. Panthers have owned us.

“The two vets”. I wonder if that means they’ve decided what they have in Comrie and it’s more along the lines of back up whereas UPL the guy where they were actively measuring progress

Good evening children of the ⚔️

BOOSH on a tear! He gets a hatty tonight!

Mildly but pleasantly surprised by the bolded choice.

Hopefully it pays off.

Let's get this before we go on the road to Buffalo.

[Mango]

I’ve been just sort of mapping out the Sabres path to a possible 8th seed in 5-10 game increments.

I certainly knew the road gets tougher come March. But man, I just looked at the schedule.

I thought 5/10 points to finish the month would be quality. But man. I wish we did better to open up post ASB to give us some wiggle room come March. 
 

EDIT: This wasn’t the first time I’ve looked at the March schedule. Sometimes I just try and take stuff in digestible and actionable chunks. This week was the first time I had to fully digest March.

Hopefully after today the “schedule is too hard” stuff gets put to bed

I said it first after the Toronto game that UPL won't play again until home game against Columbus.  If he plays well he stays up with Buffalo. If UPL has another off night he will be sent down to play for Amerks while the two vets make the playoff push in Buffalo.

[sweetlou]

I believe this will be a more defensive, tight checking game compared to what we saw last night.  I believe Anderson know the importance of this game and plays unbelievable.  

I've got 4-1 or 4-0 Buffalo.

Tage gets his 40th, Tuch, Dahlin, and Mitts with the goals.

I was actually hoping we’d start to see Anderson at home. Goaltending has been tough at at KBC, and Anderson has the best number in Buffalo by a decent margin I believe. 

[Slack_in_MA]

I’m feeling 5-4 good guys. Cozens, Oloffson, Dahlin, and Tuch x 2.

 

LFG!!!!!!

Anderson has by *far* our best numbers. I’d play him as much as possible, the other two you are picking between sub 900 sv%s and Comrie in particular is below .890.

It’s a pickle. I think you just play Craig as much a possible and revamp the position in the offseason. Maybe Levi and one steady vet above him

I’m expecting a 5-1 loss or a 5-4 loss in the last minutes of regulation. Both are the most realistic Sabres-like outcome
