Dahlin, 2nd in d-man scoring, to within 3 of EK after 2 more points (and the gWg) in nearly 29 minutes of ice time on the road in W. First overall pick is first overall pick. Enjoy the ride. The best player I’ve seen in a Sabres uniform since Hasek.

I thought Dahlin was our best skater tonight

First 3 ten game stretches to start the season 7-3-0, 14 points, 115 point pace 2-8-0, 4 points, 33 point pace 5-3-2, 12 points, 98 point pace .. will the up-down-up alternating nature continue or have we now found consistency? Interestingly enough, we’ve played at a playoff pace in both the 1st and 3rd stretches, and it’s that one streak currently keeping us out of a playoff pace/spot.

Nm they took it away. .500 again. Hopefully we don’t see below that mark again this season. Third was dicey play but pretty decent win on the road.

Thompson somehow gets the assist even though Colorado touched it in between lol

Krebs? He’s pretty thin

Dahlin now with double digit goals on the season, is 3 off his career high of 13. Game 30.

Was gonna mention: the MLB is even moving towards less interdivisional games this coming season, which I think is a good move

The Sabres played at a 33 point pace during their worst 10 game stretch, injury wise Huh...Mathematics?

Ok? It doesn’t change what I’m saying, at all

Probably reads this website

Too much focus on playing the same teams all the time playoff format already slanted that way

I can’t read sheet music

Still room for a bit of development, then. given his track record of having a penchant for development, this is probably a good thing

The penalty differential looks good for such a young age. It’s like the version of Skinner we see today who’s figured out how to pass, but with better 2 way play, and he’s still getting better. Better goal song right now, too, and I don’t even know what Quinn’s is

No idea. Florida is lagging kinda. As is Calgary lol

Forgive me but no, the chart precisely IS my point. Remove the x and y axis definitions and all the numbers. Just look at the logos and forget all the noise. Even just at a glance, where are the Sabres, if you had to say? Somewhere around the middle. Normal. My point all along has been merely that the injuries are, )for sake of argument, here,) more less par for the course. That we haven’t been “hard done by” re: bad lack, unusual circumstance on the injury front, *relatively*. But my point has also been that that ^ is not the same as saying it hasn’t *affected* us more: it has. I think the numbers bear that out. But that’s because our depth replacements haven’t been up to snuff relative to other teams. That’s ok, because we are building depth. But we can’t realistically have expected better results re: injury hand dealt. In future, we’ll simply be less affected, better equipped to withstand, due to the looming depth it looks like we’ll have coming.

Clearly Adams ((or/and?) his team) had it right. - - - ^ on this front, my guy was Lundell and he did have 44 in 65 last season.

Because of the *replacement* thats exactly my point or rather, THE point

dear lord lol this simulation is crazy

I was referencing the Avatar film by Canadian legend James Cameron, you said avatar was a kids show which I assumed was a reference to an animated show I haven’t seen which I THINK was subtitled : the last airbender, thus me highlighting/capitalizing “last” and “bend” in my post. i did not actually google the show so maybe I was wrong lol Civil War remains a top 5 mcu outing and a big part of that for me was Nemo

I was being nice. In truth I have you ranked second last. - - - Pi like McDavid is unmovable from the 1st position due to his strength of avatar

This is the Last time I’ll let you Bend the meaning of my post.

Him and McDavid are power play fiends together, go peep the PP scoring list. The Draisaitl we see sans McDavid is going to fall back into the pack of “other great players” rather than being separate from the rest on his island with Connor. So while he’s better than Reinhart, with the way we were constructing the team around Jack and Sam I doubt things would have been drastically different. He’s not really the NHL’s second best player. That’s Tage Thompson, apparently.
