So where is stand up Poster of Kim Pegula. You know the one with pieces being taken off as they win! Dont have photoshop any more but one of you wiz kids im sure could!

 Smell steals them as soon as we get them, it's a losing battle, so we just let him have them.

Preds are 6-1 in their last 7, have won 3 in a row, and are 15-0-4 when scoring first

Sooooo.... we got this.

Glass half empty: Sabres tied for last with 47.

Glass half full Sabres just 5 points out of a wild card with 2 games in hand.

 

Still 11 teams within 8 points fighting for 3 playoff spots.

BREAKING NEWS: The NHL is not getting rid of the loser point any time soon!

Unsustainable.  Go get 'im, boys!

 

Yep.  We all know Coney Hotdog was a fan favorite.

 

Give a Honk for the Goose!

What they need to do is go to a 3-2-1 points system. 3 points for regulation win, 2 points for OT/shootout win, 1 point for loss.

 

Yes. They do. I totally agree/wish they would.

 

But I doubt they because there was already an outcry when they added the loser point. If you went to a 3 point system all the point records would have to be thrown out, and the league probably doesn't want to do that.

 

The Capitals currently have 32 wins and a ROW of 31. I have no idea how many of that 31 were OT wins, but lets just say 5 of them. That's 26*3 + 5*2 + 1*1 = 89 points through 47 games played. A 90 point season is now garbage.

I liked exactly one of those players when they were in Buffalo. 

 

One more than most

Unrelated to tonight's game, but I can't be the only one who gets incredibly angry when I see Cy Hgsn's continued cap hit. Can I?

 

Way less angry than I'd be if he was still in Sabres Blue & Gold.

Not as much to do with records as it is keeping the league close so everyone thinks they're still in it even though in reality it's really tough to climb 5-7 points.  Keeps butts in the stands later in the season.

Yep,  It's a money grab, and the illusion is working on us.... a last place team who thinks they still have a chance more than half-way through the season.
