VGK shut out by MIN 3-0.

Pretty much every sports site publishes weekly power rankings that bear a remarkable resemblance to the league standings that week. But shouldn't a power ranking tell you what team is hot, or not, that week alone? So let's put our minds together and create a SabreSpace Power Rank. The difference is only the last 10 games played will be considered. That means teams like Montreal or Arizona might be in the Top 10 one week while the Vegas Golden Knights could be in the bottom 10, all based on their last 10 games played. And where can we easily access those numbers? My question is what metrics should be used? Ideally this ranking will be strictly metric-based. No opinions. No popularity contest. Obviously wins, goals scored, goals against are the obvious ones. What are some other ones you'd include?

Just a quick PSA: Still way too many tickets left for the Rick Jeanneret banner raising April 1. But games before that are looking fuller than ever.

Supposedly we were ready to do a 3-way with Florida but the Panthers couldn't close the deal.

Adams speaking now. Sabres FB page. In a nutshell: offers weren't enough to break up a team that's trending up. Why mess with chemistry? Colin Miller: injury affected interest. Anderson: respected his wishes to move to only certain teams. Still happy to stay. AHL roster: Krebs, Muel and Fitz sent down (on paper) to become playoff eligible.

Losing 27.8 points means we were a playoff team. I don't see that. I'll give you 8-10 points tops, mostly from missing Anderson.

A 3rd Harmonic?

He went to high school just down the road from me. @PA_Ath

I wonder if Adams put a claim in?

Adam's asleep. And trades keep getting announced well to 4pm

Even for a playoff run?

Or Anderson.

So no Owen or Devon for the Amerks playoff push.

Unless we are getting a 1st for Anderson, I wouldn't trade him.

Offsides challenge.

F### yeah! And lava lamps too! No mention of my Mittelstadt and Hasek jerseys?

Here's the view from my couch tonight.

Why wait, guys?

I'm sitting here watching other NHL games on ESPN+ and I'm noticing other teams get their postgame shows, specifically the Hurricanes and Coyotes. Why not the Sabres??

Northeastern and Michigan, of course.

Found out my buddy has an extra ticket for the Frozen Four in Boston. So I'll be there.

Who starts in goal and can we assume the goalie not playing is the one getting traded Monday?

What happens when we retire Cody Eakin's jersey?
