Well, that was fun while it lasted.

See...where is this team that we're watching right now usually? WTF?

If there's any knock against Phil...if Booloo turns out to be what the Sabres need. Jeez.

Dahlin is an 18 year old beast.

Yay, team.

Spike's Magic 8 Ball says "most likely" on a Sabrez win. So there's that.

That attendance has to embarrass the NHL.

So, I went to a few chatbot sites to see if they thought the Sabres would win. Even a purported psychic chatbot. Not a one of them understood the question.

Google medical advice. Luddite.

80% of the conversations on this site are "whataboutism". This one is no less valid. If Phil and the coaching staff are making decisions based on flawed data and analysis then that fills in a lot of holes. Alternately, if Phil is getting accurate data and analysis, does he grasp it all or does it make his head spin? If so, then that fills a lot of holes, too. I think this might be slightly more important of an issue than it seems.

You'd think that the Sabres' doctors, with the video of the hit and KO's behavior afterward, and the same access to Google medical advice as LGR, would have concluded that it was TOO DAMN SOON FOR HIM TO GO. Maybe I'm asking too much of people in 2019.

So, what if the Sabres' analytics dept. is inept and feeds the coaches flawed data and analyses? What then?

Interesting responses on Twitter, but this one echoes perhaps the most important question:

"Dr. Joe Early" has to be one of the greatest TV drama names ever. Another fun fact: Troup wrote "(Get Your Kicks on) Route 66".

This thread desperately needs this to go along with the OP:

Forget the rumours, let it be real!
