If you think this is bad, you should see what happens on TBD. Some mods over there are on serious power trips like the dudes who got bullied in high school that are now cops taking it out on everyone.

That would include the Bandits, Knighthawks and Sabres... https://www.hockeyfeed.com/nhl-news/reports-that-terry-pegula-has-sold-the-buffalo-sabres

Everyone needs someone or something to push them when you get to that level. Even if you think you don't. Michael Jordan used every insult or slight, real or imagined to fuel his unquenchable fire inside of him. And his coaches tapped into that side of him and don't believe for a second they didn't.

Red Wings and Pens eliminated last night after Philly pulls the goalie in a tie game since they needed a win in regulation to make it in...had they went to OT and won they would have been out but the Red Wings would have been in...tough way to get knocked out of the playoffs...especially after scoring with 3.3 seconds left to send the game to OT and then win it...

not at all. Might be taking a little longer than expected and experiencing more bumps in the road than he'd like but I don't think it will matter once it gets airborne and stays there over several years after.

20-30 goal scorer most likely. Probably turns into a good assist man...maybe 65-80 point seasons regularly with a few higher and lower.

He was excellent at them last year as well. One of the biggest drivers of the Sabres offense last year was Power starting the breaks up ice with those long passes out of his own zone. The offensive numbers with him on the ice versus off the ice last year was a pretty large gap.

Quite remarkable the Sabres have promoted so many young players to the NHL including Benson, this years #1 pick and STILL have the best prospect pool. Literally sitting on an almost embarrassing amount of prospect riches at this point. Wouldn't have been 13 years if Murray had been a little more patient and not traded all the prospects and picks for players that left the cupboard bare when it didn't work out. He set us back 5 years at least.

Another game where the Sabres make the opposing goalie look like Hasek in their prime.

Probably several.

Still irritating to see the Flyers and Caps with negative goal differentials holding the last 2 playoff spots at -6 and -27 while the Sabres and Red Wings at +3 are both outside looking in right now. Islanders also ahead of the Sabres at -20. WTF...

Only good thing is they have 2 more games against the Wings and Caps, and 1 more against the Devils, Flyers and Lightning(last game of the regular season). IMO, those are all almost must wins in regulation at this point. Cannot afford to lose or give up any loser points to these teams.

even more pathetic. How the hell can you have a higher points percentage with a -34 goal differential?

Sad we are tied in points with the Caps right now with 69 even tho they have 2 games in hand, but have a dreadful -32 goal differential.

Sabres are now +2 in Goal Differential this year. Currently they are the only team with a positive goal differential not in a playoff position. They are tied with the Caps at 69 points, but they have 2 games in hand even tho they have a terrible -32 goal differential. Mind boggling honestly.

Meh...the NHL's model seems very flawed if not completely broken. How can half the teams or more lose money but yet the salary cap goes up year after year? Makes no sense. Making the kind of revenue they are making NO TEAM should be losing money. Literally the entire salaries of the NFL are paid from their share of revenue and not out of the owners pockets. They pay for signing bonuses up front but that's up to them if they want to do it. NFL pretty much prints money so it's usually not an issue.

so effectively, 90% of their games are against teams in their own division? WTF kind of weird schedule is that? Guessing trying to limit travel distance and costs? I mean they are playing them each like 10x?

3 guys actually...their other brother, Pat, is the one who started it and they all co-own in. Opened one in Toronto a year or two ago...next time I get up there I am checking it out 😂 I wonder if they have "Good Vibrations" on loop inside the restaurant...🤔

If hockey doesn't work out maybe he can buy into the Wahlburger's franchise? https://wahlburgers.com/

for the second game in a row. Plural. And got lucky with at least 3 or 4 posts during the game the Sabres hit also.

Power is 21 years old. 21!!!! The amount of hate people have on this board borders on craziness for a player who is so young and still has a ton of room to grow.

Neither does Erik Karlsson.

Jost did have one, it was just offsides...again.

At the end of the day, talent wins out. It may take a little longer, but we have far more talent coming thru the pipeline than they do. Like the Bills in the mid 80s to late 80s...eventually all those HOF players they drafted just realized..."we are simply better than these other teams and we are going to kick your ass", and then they did. Sabres may not have any HOF players but they likely have a lot of really good ones. Only a matter of time before they are simply better most nights than the teams they are playing.
