40 shots should be enough to win

They way that Risto has been used isn't why he's making bone-headed plays. He'll still make boneheaded plays even if he plays 10 minutes a night against 3rd and 4th lines.

My Dad had partial seasons at The Aud, in the blues, near center ice... went to probably 7 or 8 games a year from 1980-90 until I went away to college.

Yeah I expect them to pair up tonight.... probably early too... packed house, first home game in a while, will get the fans fired up and spark the team.

Which is why there is fighting in hockey. I actually talked to Kevin about the Gudas fight last night and he legit does not like the guy, it's personal and he was planning on fighting him before the game even started.

How does a guy who was a healthy scratch for the past 2 weeks find himself on PP1 in his first game back? Besides, why isn't KO on PP1?

I understand they're on a six game winning streak and sit near the top of the league standings, but for the sake of the fans and their perception of this team, this is a MUST WIN on home ice.

I don't see any resemblance, sorry. This current team is unique in every way.. from coach, to personalities, to age, etc...

Consider there are infinite parallel universes. In at least one of those universes Buffalo has won six straight against some of the leagues best teams in dramatic fashion and sit in 4th place overall with a whopping +5 team goal differential. As strange as it sounds, we live in that universe.

I saw it but I still don't believe it. Dahlin a -2. Risto a +2. What type of bizzaro universe are we living in?

Dahlin has more even strength goals than Patrik Laine.

Closing in on legendary status.

I think it was early in the third, Dahlin made a stretch pass out of his end from behind the net over a stick or two right on the tape of Sobotka speeding accross center ice. It was nifty AF.

...and a lottery pick in 2020!

Dahlin is a threat every time he's on the ice. Seems like the game is starting to slow down for him. Risto, who else. He got his well deserved minus.

Petersen makes 34 saves on his way to a 2-1 shootout victory.

It's fun to watch and feel like they have a chance every game instead of just waiting for the collapse. Props to Housley for getting his guys to keep playing and pushing. Haven't seen this from a Sabre's team in years.

Wheeler looks weird with no beard.

Girgensons-Larsson-Thompson My Three Sons?

Next season. He's 18. If you give him too many minutes this season he'll struggle in the 2nd half due to mental and physical fatigue.

Must not get embarrassed.

Former Sabres prospect, and Notre Dame alum, Cal Petersen will make his first career NHL start tonight in Chicago for the visiting LA Kings.

Risto, Larsson, Girgensons and Pominville

I'll make a prediction th
