Partially because Pronmans redraft rubbed me the wrong way. I don't know. He still thinks highly of Dahlin. I don't think it is ridiculous to suggest that in an actual 2018 redraft Dahlin would not go #1 and could fall as far as #4. Also, he improved Samuelsson's ranking to #13 and basically acknowledges he was wrong on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made some money on the Calgary game, maybe I’ll play again. First time I gambled this year, I don’t play a lot and bet ‘peanuts’ but it keeps it interesting.

Regardless of a 2-week sample, the Sabres are probably not better than the Canucks. Vancouver should be properly motivated, and playing in their home opener. Buffalo is young this year and likely to have a lot of ups and downs. The bounces that are so common in the NHL are due to go in the other direction for each team. Hopefully the Canucks are fragile enough and the Sabres resilient enough to overcome that, but there are enough factors to favour the Canucks and justify this, IMO. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that it’s not coming, but it certainly can’t be predicted based on dueness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t change the fact that the Sabres (and many other mediocre teams) tend to lose in this scenario. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Aud Smell Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 I ventured over to a Canucks message board to get a flavour for the team’s struggles. Some interesting stuff there. Mostly, though, I lol’d at the fact that someone posts there as “Blob McKenzie.” http://canuckscorner.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=12566&sid=e2bfd03d8f65a4817c3db42f260a7e54&start=15 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Predictive not determinative.) It sounds like you’re disagreeing with me, but I don’t think you are. Saying that Vancouver will win tonight is determinative (tonight js the night they will win) because they are “due” (not actually a thing - gambler’s fallacy).

As to the game tonight, I think the key for the Sabres is getting up early making the Canucks grip the sticks a little tighter as they start pressing to appease the increasingly hostile home crowd. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 Home opener, first game at home after a 5-game road trip... Vancouver is going to try to win the game in the first 10 minutes. If the Sabres can weather that storm (maybe even get a transition counterattack goal midway through the first... then start to take the game over in the 2nd where they've played so well... they could run away with this one. That's best case scenario. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
