Let's string 3 wins in a row and get to 20pts in 20 games and work from there

You don’t think 8th seed ends up around 94/95 where it’s currently at? Frankly it IS pretty likely the sabres need to play at the pace suggested to make it

Have the Sabres and Bills ever gone 2-0 for a weekend?

He scored on both teams, pretty impressive.

We need 6 wins in a row to put us back on a 95-point pace. Oh the red wings definitely pissed it away.

It we’ll be massive I’m sure

Ok. The Sabres won a game!! better? 😂. I’m happy they pulled this one out of their *****. I watch and post because I ***** care even though the owner doesn’t.

Fair enough, was guilty of reacting without seeing it as I was in Bridgeport watching the Amerks.

I don't think Greenway deserves that kind of description so soon after just coming back from the type of long injury he just had. How about we give him a little more time to get back to the role he played for us in the past when he was healthy. OTOH I couldn't agree more about Quinn. For someone who was supposed to be a goal scoring sniper he consistently disappoints.

49:40. It's nothing. Tonight continues to suck.

When has the Sabres ever showed they could play at that pace? If Detroit didn’t ***** the bed like they did in the 3rd, this would have been another loss in regulation.

Malenstyn? This is a great post. It's exactly how I saw the game.

Weird game. Looked like it was over at 4-1 but the PK came through and Detroit made a pile of errors. Giveaways and shoddy D on both sides. Thompson with the physicality that would make him a true superstar if he would bring that every night. Nice to see how excited Ellis was with winning. That's a guy happy to be in the NHL and doesn't have the stink of losing on him yet. You have to like it. If we could somehow smoosh Quinn and Greenway into one player we'd have a very good one, but as is they both suck bad. Timmons looked pretty bad tonight as well. Hope that isn't going to continue. That assumes all the teams above them (in the playoffs) maintain their current pace. That won't happen either. Not likely.

What's the taxpayer ask going to be?

If you clench your butt cheeks at just the right moment, no puck can hurt you. Every decent strength and conditioning guy knows that.

What a sweet win. There were more than a few positives to come out of this game tonight. It had to be Tage's strongest all around game in a long time. Same for a few of the other players we rely on to come up big when needed to do so. It was refreshing to see the extent of the jubilation by the coaches when Samuelsson scored. It was almost the type of joy you'd see by the coaches on the bench when a team wins the cup in game 7. They were so ecstatic (or was it relief?) that I have to wonder if maybe they thought their jobs could finally be on the line tonight depending on what the outcome was.

Anyone notice this lady after the Sabres win?

Right because no team in the history of the league has ever played at that pace. The math speaks. yeah, this team doesn’t have it in them, but for at least once can we spare the woe is me crap? I have no idea why so many of you continue to watch/post.

What does that have to do with getting hit by a puck?

They would have to play at a .617 pace to reach 95.

"Mathematically" eliminated means there is no combination of their own wins and any other teams' losses that can result in them being in the playoffs. Considering the season is only 21.9% over and the Sabres could still earn 128 more points - no, the math does not say they are done. Being in last place at nearly the 1/4 is not a good scenario, for sure. Rags on pace for 95 pts ... Sabres need to play at 0.617 to reach that. 8 teams played at a 102 pace for the entire season last year - 25% of the league. Far from "near impossible". For the Sabres? Yeah, I would agree they are probably not making it.

Levi was rough early. 3 goals on 11 shots and 2 were not good. Settled down and made those saves like Leone wanted.

They are almost mathematically out of it right now. I believe I heard today that they need to be at 102 (give or take) point pace to get into the playoffs which is near impossible.
