GDT: Sabres @ Hurricanes -- Jan. 11, 2019


North Buffalo

Recommended Posts

Important game tonight.

We have 52 pts in  43 games and Carolina 45 in 43.  The Canes have been playing good hockey lately (6-4) and the Sabres only 4-5-1.

A win by the Sabres will make the spread 9 points and bring us to 54 pts with 38 games remaining to earn 44 more points to secure a playoff spot.  20-14-4 ought to do it.  If we win and make the spread 9, Carolina would need to earn 52 points in their remaining 38 to catch us.  Something like 25-11-2.  Good luck with that.

Named?  That implies that he was NOT voted in, but is a replacement for someone ... OV, perhaps?

They would replace someone within the division, so it couldn't be OV.

Mostly small sample sizes, but from an analytics point of view, this might the optimal Sabres forward lineup?

I’m getting peeved about how people are talking three-team race for last two spots. Win tonight and we are ahead of Montreal, NYI and Columbus and tied with Boston and Pittsburgh for 4th.

Concede nothing. Time to pillage the south.

Yes, bad sample sizes. 100 minutes is usually good so we gotta hope this sticks for a bit so we can analyze it.
