Brawndo Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 They have a game scheduled, whether or not they show up and play is a different story. The season is almost over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pi2000 Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 I, for one, am super excited for this game because Housley is amazing. Botterill just needs to replace the entire roster with 23 McDavids and our Lord and saviour Phil Housley will have this team on the precipice of the playoffs next season. I just love how he has these guys competing night in and night out. Makes it fun to watch when you know they're emptying the tank each every shift because they have so much respect for their head coach and don't want him to lose his job. They really give that extra effort, nobody wants to let up or face a benching. He really has everyone buying in, pulling in the same direction... what a great leader of men he is.

While I think you are putting too much emphasis on Housley here I do like your new positive outlook on the team. It's a step in the right direction, keep it up. Another game... sweet. Hopefully they play better tonight. If not I am sure I will find something else to do pretty quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Right back up on that horse. This is a very winnable game, so they better. GO SABRES!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pi2000 Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 I love it when Pi focuses in on a whipping boy. Let's hope it turns out the same way as Austin Matthews..... btw, my Matthews prediction is right on schedule.... https://forums.sabrespace.com/topic/25138-this-season-im-most-excited-for/page-2?do=findComment&comment=970044 ...2 years in, he's clearly not even the best player in his draft class. http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/draft/nhl2016e.html But lets stay on topic here boys! This is a GDT. I'll make a prediction... these are the games where BUF wins big. The laid an egg at home last night, going on the road they'll play like playoff contenders. Maybe Housley can stay on as the road coach? Bring in Bylsma to coach home games... they won 40 home games under Bylsma's watch the two seasons he was here.

Mustache of God Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 This is a big game that will have monumental ramifications on the CHL standings (is that thread still active?). I'll come out an say it: I want the team to lose tonight. We have to work under the assumption that the lottery odds will bump us 3 spots down the list and I want to draft no later than 4th. Must lose boys! (I'm fully expecting them to win in some act of cosmic spite). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabre fan Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 don't matter cause the NHL'll knock us down to 4 or 5 selection but it is kinda interesting how we can beat the Bolts twice., Boston and Toronto then serve up a late Thanksgiving turkey. I do think we'll beat Ottawa though I hope we don't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Line 1: Crap Line 2: Crappier Line 3: Crappiest Line 4: Jordan Nolan - Danny O'Ragan - another piece of crap. D pairings look similar. Lehner in net.

R_Dudley Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Now this is a different GDT. Ok then, I'm in with the majority. This is a must lose game. Need to hold on firmly to that last place finish..... Now if this goes like the season has so far, when we all wanted wins we got losses. So if majority here is hoping for a loss I fully expect they'll win... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 I hope they get blown out again, they don't deserve to win Deserving is game-by-game. They deserved to get crushed by Calgary based on how they played. But if the Sabres come out and play like they have against Boston, then they'll deserve to win. Let's win this game! If we finish last, that's fine, but the draft order percentages and the picking for each of the top three picks... finishing last isn't nearly so important as it was for McJesus/Eichel. Let's win, let the ping-pong balls fall where they might, and take our guaranteed top 6 pick and move on. Let's win and have some fun. The GDTs are more jovial when we win.

So if majority here is hoping for a loss I fully expect they'll win... Nope. Win what they can & let the chips fall where they may. Dahlin is the true prize & there isn't enough of a difference in odds between 31st and 27th to justify losing out. This team has to start winning at some point. Tonight's as good as any to start.

Crusader1969 Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 wont come as a surprise but I will be hoping Ottawa wins tonight. Samson with a 3 point game but a loss would be best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
