Fack.  If that's all they're going to do, just don't friggin' bother and HOPE that continuity and having a full year under Ruff's "system" gets them some extra points in the standings.

And, yes, that's ALL they're gonna do.

Used to absolutely love Canada Day.  Now it just serves to remind us how far we're removed from the NHL.

I figure 85pts is there max total right now. I figure you need 93/94 for playoffs.

Buckle up boys and girls. Feels like we’re going to need a lot of comfort food today.

Adams is feeling the pressure and won’t get any significant UFAs to bite.

I smell Byram for a lesser Dman and a pick and Rust for Helenius or another prospect we like.

Tomorrow is going to be a pitchforks and torches day on the ol’ interwebs for Sabres fans methinks.

Tomorrow? Time to get those forks sharpened and the torches soaked in oil.

85 is exactly what this team looks like at present.

They need to go into the off-season planning on putting together a team that can win 3 out of 5 games.  (Not even quite that as other teams in the NHL are allowed to get loser points, the Sabres SHOULD be allowed to do that as well.  Get 6 points every 5 games.)  But they put together teams that MIGHT POSSIBLY if EVERYTHING, literally everything, GOES RIGHT get to about 95 points.  At some point they have to realize that the '05-'06 Canes only happens once a generation and it usually ends like the '96 Panthers journey ends - getting frog stomped by the much better team at the end of it all.

Adams is a loser though. He betrays that mentality everytime he talks. He's not a leader.

14 years without a playoff appearance. 19 years since their last playoff series win.  I can’t imagine why the fans would be unhappy.

More pitchforks and more torches?

And more palm trees.
