Well, I think they may have added Stanley to get his cup.

The Sabres were frustrating to watch on the power play and entering the zone. For the latter, how many times are you going to try the same thing when it wasn’t working? Puck carrier crosses blue line and then dumps the puck back to a teammate at the blue line with a defender right there. Puck knocked away, down the ice, but let’s try it again. Hmm, didn’t work that time either.

I am thinking I might be in a coma and just dreaming all this. How is a ream that hasn’t made the playoffs for 14 years and was last in the conference in November tied for the conference lead in points in mid-March?

Yeah, I’m with you on Hijack. It started off good but then dragged on. Dark Winds got too weird for me to continue watching. Too many other shows I need to catch up on.

Well, with one week to go, only the 6th playoff spot remains to be decided, with 4 teams still in contention (Labatt Blue, North Buffalo, gilbert11 and Gtown Sabres. The schedule makers weren’t kind to me (gilbert11) and Labatt Blue as we’re both playing one of the top three teams. Meanwhile, North Buffalo gets an easier matchup vs Lord of the Rinks. It will be interesting to see who gets that last playoff slot. Congrats to Beast of the East, PastaJoe’s Ice Holes, Two or less, Dahlin Beef and Gov’t Muel for having already clinched playoff spots.

On 8th goal: “He scooorrrreeeesssss!” and then he goes quiet for a few seconds to get the crowd noise.

Last season he had a career best 16 goals and 20 assists. How is that a black hole?

What about these Robert Thomas rumors? If you’re a playoff team, giving up a couple first rounders don’t matter as much.

Two very good shows I’m watching right now are the 2nd season of Hijack on Apple+ and Memory of a Killer on Fox.

It’s Jarmo Magic!

Thanks!

I don’t recall if you were the one who compared analytics of the 2018 streak to this one, but I see stats that show a difference. In 2018, 7 of the 10 wins were by OT/SO and 2 others were by 1 goal. The 10th win was by 3 goals. In this current streak, only 3 wins were in OT/SO with only one other win by one goal. That’s 6 strong wins. Now, I don’t see how changing the GM in the midst of this streak affected it, but Jarmo is undefeated so far.

Ten wins in a row and that just gets you to the 8th seed by one point?! 46 points in 39 games is like a 94 point pace which last season would get you in the playoffs. Every team in the Eastern Conference is at least at a point per game pace. Five teams in the West are not, but right now there isn’t a really bad team record wise.

Tuch is one of my favorite players but you just can’t do an 8 year deal that goes out to his age 37 season. There’s only a small percentage of players that are still going strong at age 35.
