Buffalo has to score first tonight. 
 

The Sabres have been scored on first 27 of 47 games, and in those games are 4-20-3. They have a first period goal differential of -25. When trailing after the first they are 2-17-2. All are 2nd worst in the NHL only above the Sharks. 

But conversely, they're 16-3-1 when they score 1st.  Which has to be pretty high on the list.

And, basically, we can all turn the TV off pretty early in the game if all that we care about is whether they win or lose.  What, somebody scored?  Guess we can chalk that one up.  😉

Good evening, and I should say night for the East Coasters.  
 

Punch checking in.   Let’s see what they can do?   Will they show up against a struggling team?

I have no idea which Sabre team will be playing tonite. It would be hard to duplicate last night's performance.

[SwampD]

I just want to watch some good hockey. That Jets/Leafs game was great, and there was only one goal scored.

Actually, pretty sure it wouldn't take any effort at all.

The Kings are going to be super tired after all this Kopitar praise.

Again !!??  And so soon.

MUST WIN !!

GO SABRES !!

They probably are staying in the same hotel for a few nights until they figure out the way to San Jose.  

That may be a good thing.

Any of our Southern Californians going / went to the games.  I did not read the GDT past page 3.

I know @pi2000 has ties to the Ducks, or maybe he is making that all up to impress the chickidoodles around here.

Oh, yeah ...

SWORDS !!

[SABRES 0311]

Serious question. How upset is everyone that the Sabres just gave up a goal?

[PromoTheRobot]

Sometimes you have to acknowledge a hell of a play. That was a hell of a play.

Welp, the Kings scored first. I’ll still watch, but won’t fight passing out. Dang, the Sabres suck lol

[YoungsterJoey]

[Bangarang]

I’m shocked we give up a goal a few minutes into the game
