What would the vibes be if Buffalo had won on Wednesday. Sigh. 

NHL .500! Pour the Champagne of Beers.

Sheevyn would've hung the Mission Accomplished banner.

I'm not surprised by this. It's happened many times before. A complete garbage game, coach yells at them, they win the next one big. I really didn't think they played all that well though. It was a wide open game and they love those always. Zero physicality, no D anywhere and Chicago coming off a demoralizing controversial loss. If you get excited by this you are a fool. Nothing has changed with this team. 

Starting UPL also tells me this team is not serious about winning this year. They are still showcasing/deciding and they don't have a clue on what they are doing with the goaltending. 

But hey, lots of goals, win better than a loss. So enjoy it while you can.

The Sabres are still 6 games under real 500 and have the worst winning % in the East at .476   They have to climb over 8 other teams to reach a playoff spot.  

Yeah we beat the hell out of Chicago.  That in no ways makes up for losses to Stl and Calg. This team still stinks.  Seriously why do they have to sink so low to get the motivation to play hard?

Terrible power play. 

I think they made up for it. 😜

I just watched the game. I had a high school football game too call. (Bedford NH made the finals.) What can you say? Maybe the Blackhawks didn't take the Sabres seriously? 🤷‍♂️

At the time of the trade, if someone said Doan would practically replace Pererka's scoring you'd call them delusional.

No, I expected a win as I said. 

I'm just not about to break something jumping on and off the bandwagon. 

A beer league team could have beaten Chicago tonight. they were horrible.

I’m happy they won, but one game’s worth of effort doesn’t erase the 10 games of little effort that has this team at the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings.  

Until they put forth that kind of effort night in and night out we aren’t going to see real progress.
