Gatorman0519 Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 The Sabres have 15 games left. Probably need to win 10 of them at minimum. That’s a tough out. If only we would have gotten more loser points in those 1 goal loss games or won 2-3 more games. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only we would have gotten more loser points in those 1 goal loss games or won 2-3 more games. Was thinking 12-3 but since cutoff could be 91, and we could have the breaker, 11-4 could do it. I can’t see it being 90 but who knows. 89 almost impossible, so if we only win 10, we’d need to lose at least 1 in regulation. 10-4-1, 90 points would have an outside shot of getting in. 11-4, 91 has a reasonable shot 12-3 would almost assuredly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the fact we are sitting here at saying something like 10-4-1 *could* do it shows how much it’s tightened up of late, I think. Winning 2/3 rest of way and mixing in an ot loss along the way is *definitively* not absurd. That’s not a crazy stretch and not crazy long 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
repster Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 For the record, the Sabres have the tiebreaker advantage over the Islanders, Detroit and Washington with regulation wins. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunomatic Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 The fact that we don’t have an nhl backup that anyone has faith in to spell UPL down the stretch falls on KAs bumbling of the position the last few seasons. Thats not in dispute. 2 1 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Present tense, about a past event? Unless, you always have been, and always will be. And your birth is metaphysical insofar as you existing as AI Kevyn.

Broken Ankles Posted March 15 Report Share Posted March 15 Krebs had 7 FO wins and 1 loss. The line he shared with Skinner and JJP had the most even strength ice time. They had the second best XG% and second best CF%. Obviously the Cozens Greenway Benson has been solid but Krebs is centering two guys who were stapled to the bench for seemingly poor defensive play a few games ago. Sheltered a bit with almost all O-zone starts but solid, and appears to be skating faster with JJP and Skinner vs KO and Zemgus. Could this 3C tryout change his stock from Underperform to Hold? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
