They have one game in hand. Win today and you're 8 out. Montreal blew a 3-0 lead and lost in OT. Just keep plugging away.
The only race Buffalo is in is for 3rd in the Atlantic.
Toronto 10 points up but we have a game in hand. Montreal blew a 3-0 lead at home and lost to Dallas 4-3 in OT. So that's a small help to us.
The wild card is 6- team frenzy in the Metropolitan. But the 3-seed in the Atlantic is a 3-team (sort-of) race between us, the Canadiens and the Leafs.
Back in October I bought a ticket for Sabres/Canadiens in Montreal. It's a Tuesday night game. (3/24). Sadly no Saturday nights with the Sabres this year but mid week tickets were quite cheap.
Mmmmm-kay. You do know that jersey was the top seller in the NHL when it came out, right? I get you and others didn't like it. But don't make blanket statements that don't make sense. One person could buy something awful, but tens of thousands?
