Been a fun game tbh right players coming through on offence

He’s so done with that league. Next season might present a bit of a pickle re: where he plays

“He’s not exactly good but not terrible either” is the official mantra of the back up goalie. And there’s no shame in that. But that’s what Comrie is, he’s a back up goalie

Arizona beat Tampa 1-0 in the shoutout? What? Lol

I think I’m pretty resigned to what Comrie can do, but ya, prob the plan

Didn’t notice it on the goal originally, Krebs makes a really nice pass to Casey before he scores. It’s not so much that it’s difficult placement, but he one touch passes it to him really quickly and it helps him find space

Points in 4 straight

Casey!

Interestingly Krebs has more goals than assists Comrie is a victim of never being good enough to seize a starting role in a decade (ok fine, 7 seasons)

This year I have evaluated that we need to score a lot to win because our G gives up a lot Way to go Peyton

Come on, guys. - - - May have to pay the price to get a goalie we’ve been hesitant to pay

Thompson up to 70 points Dahlin nearing 60

Dahlin nearly with his 3rd point

Best period since the 2nd period vs the Jets

Haha good nostalgia

The message was: today we play the ducks

Dahlin Thompson combo goes boom

If only there was some sort of magical device that lumped all these multitude of steaming services, or, “channels” if you will, into one singular contraption what a world that would be.

Honestly, I give up you can yell at me in all caps as a response (“WRONG“) and swear at me all you like. Don’t really need the treatment tbh I’ll stick with this, after editing it to “2” in the last 10 years. Missed the Leafs a couple years ago

We aren’t making the playoffs if we are below deluca. Yes, I get the fact that 110 points guarantees it. I do not care. I do not care how many times you try to correct me on it. I do not care about finding a number that GUARANTEES it. Have explained this countless times. My interest is in the number we need to achieve that represents the first realistically achievable number where playoffs are *more likely than not*. It is VERY statistically likely that a non deluca team misses. It is very unlikely a non deluca team makes it

There’s been 1 playoff team in the east in the last decade to be below deluca 500, 9 years ago let it go

There’s the top 20, then the Next 12 Sabres are currently at the very top of that grouping. Let’s divide the group into 2, though, as there’s a small apparent gap: the top 6 (that the Sabres lead) are all within 6 points. To get from the Sabres to the second group, the lower 6, it’s double digit points. The bottom 3 of that bottom 6 separates even *further*, all 3 teams at 40 points or below, all with 30+ regulation losses, all within 4 points of dead last. The DFL grouping...these are the teams you cannot lose to. Anaheim is in this group (along with Chicago and Columbus). Beat Anaheim.

Good Morning Football? Fun show

It’s gonna be tough. The more teams in the fold, the more unlikely it becomes that there aren’t statistical outliers on either end - we don’t have breathing room, so in that scenario, “there’s nothing for it” if we aren’t one of those statistical outliers, and the one on the most positive end. So we don’t need to just improve to a playoff pace when we have a sample size of 52 games now saying we are definitely, statistically, NOT quite a playoff team (and believe it or not, that’s actually the EASY part), we likely have to outperform someone outplaying that already improved pace down the stretch. This is why it’s just so hard to make up ground. If we get in, we shall deserve it

Wouldn’t call Detroit “trash” personally as we are sitting at an identical 56 points though 52 games
