GDT / Islanders @ Sabres, Thurs 3/14, 7pm MSG, ESPN+ & WGR Radio

[HOUSE]

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — Approaching the end of the warmest winter on record, Buffalo’s playoff hockey drought might be starting to thaw.

After scorching Detroit 7-3 on Tuesday night at KeyBank Center, the Sabres (31-30-5 — 67 points) are now within a few wins of the Red Wings (33-26-6 — 72 points) and New York Islanders (29-21-14 — 72 points) for the Eastern Conference’s last wild-card playoff spot. Improving to 7-3-1 over the past 11 games, Buffalo hosts New York on Thursday before going on the road for Saturday’s rematch with the Detroit, which have now lost six in a row.

The Sabres are only 27 points behind the Panthers so this rebuild is clearly working

 

We're only 5 points out of a playoff spot. Baby steps bro... Big game tonight, nobody seen this coming 3 weeks ago.

I dunno, man.

Pre-Roy Islanders were a bad matchup for the Sabres.

And now? I don't have high hopes.

Let's go, Buffalo.

He's already better than Dahlin. He is large and in charge.

This was my thought as well.

Robinson or VO (or maybe Rousek if dressed)... if the Sabres win, one of them plays a key role tonight.

[Slack_in_MA]

Magnificent Winnebagos!  LFG!! Need this one badly!

[OverPowerYou]

I feel like I’m in an alternate time line. The weather is in the 60’s, the Sabres are playing meaningful games in March. Something will go wrong soon
