Wyldnwoody44 Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 I believe the longest regulation losing (winning) streak is 17 straight, 92-93 sharks tied with an older jets team... Could be wrong.... Do we have it in us to compete with history!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be wrong.... Do we have it in us to compete with history!!!! I looked it up and the Caps share the record in 1974-75. I'd like to know what the longest losing streak of an established team is, not an expansion team. Damn, Irbe was on that team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that the jets in their 2nd year went 30 winless in a row and only won 9 games that season. I don't think we'll break history this year, but Damn, we will be close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X. Benedict Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 I think it is time to honor Enroth with Carrion player of the week. 2 starts 13 GA. The stench is growing strong in this one, and he has the right team to press him to even greater lows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stench is growing strong in this one, and he has the right team to press him to even greater lows. I have asked repeatedly why the coach allows his goalies to get pounded. Yesterday, Fluery gave up three goals and was yanked. Enroth gets pounded and he leaves him in destroying his career GAA numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jsixspd Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 I just want to point out that you were wrong when you said the worst they could do over a 10 game stretch was 1-9. Yes, they're 11-0 over the last 10 games. Amazing. ;) I believe the longest regulation losing (winning) streak is 17 straight, 92-93 sharks tied with an older jets team... Could be wrong.... Do we have it in us to compete with history!!!! If we play Hodgson, Gorges, and The Mess for 25 minutes per game, we should be able to do it.

I don't think we'll break history this year, but Damn, we will be close The Sabres are far from being amongst the worst teams in NHL history. Then again, most of the worst were usually 1st or 2nd yer expansion teams. I think one of the most unbelievable streaks was the 41 straight road losses the Senators had in 92-93. Losses............. no ties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you consider the roster, 10% improvement year to year would be considered to me near miraculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derrico Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Carolina down 3 0 late in the second which is great news. Having said that it is against the leafs who have been on a tear lately. They can't join the chl fast enough IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's bad because we want to win ;) because we have such a good ;) roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunomatic Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Leafs are about to blow it up.IMO. If they can get some ahem,cough, stars to waive their no trades they'll be moved for picks and prospects. Can the Toronto faithful stand a rebuild ? Stay tuned. We may have some competition for the shart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like your spirit. I have a nagging doubt planted in my mind probably by a fellow sabrespaceout who said that the league wanted the Leafs to get that coveted #1 overall.

SabresFuture Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 It's looking good for us at the moment. We need to come out of the all-star break and continue our winning streak. Something else to think about: Our ROW is terrible (or great!). We're currently at 8, EDM is at 9, and Arizona and Carolina are both at 13. Some solid ground to make up for them if they want to catch us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabres: Lowest Goals for per game Highest Goals against per game Lowest shots for per game Highest shots against per game Good luck rest of the NHL. If it wasn't for that little winning streak in Nov, Buffalo would be somewhere around 24-25 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it wasn't for that little winning streak in Nov, Buffalo would be somewhere around 24-25 points. Yup, we're the best. There was some level of concern we lucked our way out of the Shart with that little streak, but as it turns out, we're good enough to overcome adversity. The CHL Sabres might be the toughest Sabres team mentally we've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't a normal year, but if the other contenders wait until the trade deadline to sell off, it should be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pi2000 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) My gut feel is that they end up somewhere between 105-113 points. In a normal year, that would win it going away. This isn't a normal year, but if the other contenders wait until the trade deadline to sell off, it should be enough. The deadline is March 2nd. Buffalo has only 4 home games in March... 9 on the road. EDM has a 6 game homestand against TOR, CBJ, PHI, WIN, COL, DAL. ARI has a whopping 10 home games in March, they also play BUF twice near the end of the month. If BUF enters the deadline in the #1 spot, they'll walk away with this thing.
