mjd1001 Posted March 8 Report Posted March 8 They finish with about 80 points (give or take a few). I can't seem them catching ANYONE in front of them, and only Montreal has a slight chance of catching the Sabres from below but I don't think that will happen either. Quote

GoPuckYourself Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 2 hours ago, PerreaultForever said: We aren't tanking but I imagine the mood on the team will be down and they will just be playing out the season with minimal efforts. RFAs will probably give a damn playing for contracts. The losing culture gets deeper entrenched. Vacation plans are probably already in the making. I personally don't care about the draft one iota. So pretty much the same as they have been for most of the season? 1 Quote

GMKA as Brain: What we try to do at the end of every season -- draft 8th. I laughed out loud, very good. But actually to stay true to the trope failing to take over the world every episode it should read, HCDG as Pinky: What will we do next season, Brain? GMKA as Brain: Same thing we do every season: Try to make the playoffs. 1 Quote

I don’t think success here really would mean anything as far as next season goes (as we saw last) Still, I expect them to keep fighting and would expect nothing less. You don’t back down from the expectation to win once it’s installed We have expectation to win installed? Since when?? Why am I always the last to hear of these things??!! 1 Quote
rickshaw Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 (edited) I’m going to Canucks game on 19th and it’s the second of back to back games. I’m gonna get Comrie aren’t I? Edited March 9 by rickshaw 1 1 Quote

Probably not. I think 6K will get every game until Sabres are officially eliminated from the playoff. In that case by the 19th you may get Levi. Quote

I’m in the same quandary. I’m waiting for Kraken ticket prices to drop even further (it’s working!). But which game do they give UPL — Seattle or Vancouver? I want to see the Sabres get a win against the expansion team. Quote
nfreeman Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 I definitely want them to try to win every GD game, simply to try to expel the losing culture that permeates this franchise. BUT if they lose a bunch of games and a weak finish convinces KA to fire DG... Quote
bunomatic Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Once again your Buffalo Sabres go out with a wimper. Please sell this team Terrance Pegula. Quote
WhenWillItEnd66 Posted March 9 Author Report Posted March 9 With some wins we can start to catch playoff teams that are faltering. But........ Quote

Thorner Posted March 10 Report Posted March 10 (edited) We can beat Detroit 3 times, the issue being they probably aren’t the team pacing for WC2 if we do. It’s still possible but is getting ridiculously hard because of the shrinking runway Edited March 10 by Thorny Quote
aristocrat Posted March 10 Report Posted March 10 We beat Detroit twice and isles this week the hope tank is very full. This team needs to play the best hockey they’ve ever played this week. Then we get Detroit again later on. There is a path but it’s narrow Quote
