Ross Rhea Posted April 15 Report Posted April 15 What sucks is somebody is getting in with 91, 90 or less points Quote

We knew they wouldn't change in season... But for tonight.. they can enjoy one last game. Not sure I will bother. More like waste management. 🗑 We will be sewn false promises and deliver zilch. 1 Quote

inkman Posted April 15 Report Posted April 15 I’m happy this ***** show is coming to an end. It may be the single most frustrating season I can remember. At least the tank years were by design. What has this abomination been? 3 3 Quote

Not good enough for the playoffs, not bad enough for a top pick. 1 Quote
FrenchConnection44 Posted April 15 Report Posted April 15 2 hours ago, PromoTheRobot said: Let's talk draft position. A Sabres win locks up the 11th pick. A loss and they could be anywhere between 11 and 8. NJ, CGY and SEA could jump past us. How does that impact lottery odds? 11 = 3% 10 = 3.5% 9 = 5% 8 = 6% It's also weird that the NHL regular season continues for 3 more days after Buffalo is done. Gotta Lose. Once we were eliminated (really even before we were technically eliminated as we were a couple of games prior to that for all intents ..), I’d have brought a bunch of guys up and let them play. And I would not care about winning too much. We want the best draft position possible. Even if we decided to trade it for a vet the higher the pick the better. Quote

I think the playoff race in the AHL prevented that. The Amerks can earn still the #1 seed in the conference. 1 1 Quote

Not good enough for the playoffs, not bad enough for a top pick. I know why you say this but I think everyone was expecting a solid playoff year. It was doomed almost immediately. Every key game was lost. Anytime they absolutely had to have it, they fell on their face. I had no expectations until this season. Quote
Pimlach Posted April 15 Report Posted April 15 4 hours ago, Mustache of God said: The only thing worth watching for tonight is to see if Kucherov can hit 100 assists on the season, which is pretty dang impressive. I just glanced at the scoring leaders and the Sabres point leader is Alex Tuch with 59 points. That ranks him #90 out of all skaters. Let that sink in, there are 89 other players who have more points than the Sabres top scorer. Here's to hoping that this is Donny's last game. Hey, but he taught defense this year. 1 Quote

I look forward to watching his moves though. Quote
