…even after which we’d need to play at a 109 point pace over final 36 to hit 94 points. It’s possible, don’t mean to be the bearer of (obvious, I’m sorry) bad news, but the math is a little more daunting than some are letting on. Another thing to keep in mind is that even math isn’t free of unconscious bias: you have to remember that if you are penciling in a 3 game win streak, that means you aren’t pencilling in a 4 game win streak, meaning you have us losing that next game. Because we need to factor that in, we’d actually be at 46 points after 47 games: which actually would need us to play at a 112 point pace after that streak and the game that ends it Otherwise, if you want math better than that, for the final 35, we actually need a *4* game win streak (or at least to lose that 4th one in OT) That the team needs to streak is only half of it, that’s the part that sometimes falls by the wayside. It’s the fact that even after you make up ground, the rest of your games have to statistically reflect the streak more so than the bulk: and that’s very mathematically unlikely. Combined with the multitude of teams you need to leapfrog in the process, it’s why you get playoff odds calculated at like 6% when you are “seemingly only” 3/4 games “out”

Good is relative and we played Ottawa so. You do the math

Aim higher Snap Well said

Because they aren’t

Increasingly incensed I guess, but this board is full of posters who realized exactly what we’d miss by not replacing him but overall, there’s no denying Quinn a represents a huge advantage for us going forward. Good player will, imo, be out best F

Is this AI? The opinions on this account seem to 180 daily. Actually asking

You make a good point I hadn’t considered..

Broke: Brady T. Woke: T. Brady

Good crowd here, prob a sell out

Maybe the turn around starts today. As good a time as any. Go Sabres.

Haha We want guys who want to be here

Marek did say the classic Sabres logo was among the best all time in all of sports and he’s definitely right

URGHHHH BOBBY!

I love hockey primarily because I love the Sabres. It’s fun to watch the occasional game but the true passion for the product, the best memories, the reason when it comes down to it that I watch at all.. it all comes back to my rooting interest in the Buffalo Sabres, rather than specifically being enamoured by the game itself. And I’m not from Buffalo. Have never even been, so not a local team thing

There’s a better embedded version

Just hit play I would highly recommend watching and listening closely from :20 to 1:00

Even a handful of adjustments (if they are of a seriously legitimate nature) might look like a smorgasbord, relative to what we’ve seen from KA, should you be correct the moves get made. …Wait, you are going to be at *thirty* games live in person, just this season? …superfan, more like.

ANY sort of use of the word “bandwagon” should be taboo imo

What happened to him? A career year is what happened. He’s still really good. It was never more likely than not that he would truly stabilize among the game’s top 10-15 forwards, as his output was reflective of that season. I think we can probably get better than we’ve seen, though. Good news is his contract is fine for what we are seeing I think

And therein lies the rub perhaps the real fandom is the friends we’ve made along the way

Do you post on any bills message boards?

The fact you started a thread in serious contemplation of your own mindset is pretty solid evidence to the idea you do care, though. If that helps
