Nope. It's been 16 since the moment playoffs was clinched.

And for anyone wondering when the Sabres had enough points to ensure this countdown to 16 would begin this weekend, it looks like they didn't need to add anymore points after they beat Seattle in the shootout on March 28.

They wouldn't be hosting the B's, they'd be heading down to Carolina, but it turns out that even losing out after that point they still would've been in front of the WC3 Captials.  And even losses to other contenders such as the Aisles and BJs after that point wouldn't have been enough to propel any of them above 97 points.

Actually no. The magic number is a complex algorithm that includes 16 wins, but requires understanding the differential bayesian formula for cosine, specifically the Portugese school of thought, which frankly I find dull and lackluster.

This is all very obvious.

NOW it is 15.

[JujuFish]

It is indeed 15 now.

It took a while for the Twitter link to load up. I honestly thought you were going to say 420 in honour of today.

I like the fact that they are thinking Cup or nothing, that is every team’s ultimate goal. Day to day goals are different but keep your eye on the prize at the end of this tough journey.

Ruff has enough experience and has his finger on the pulse of this team to prevent time travelling. The past is done, don’t worry about it. The future adds stress, don’t worry about it. The present is what you have control over, do it right.

What the heck is going on with the puck placement on the board? Counter clockwise from the 10:30 position is absolute madness to me. 

[DarthEbriate]

Ruff started it... with... a convenient location? Maybe.

Dahlin had no plan until he got up there. He panicked. Maybe they're thinking quadrants?

They need someone to step up and either go for a flange bolt sequence or just embrace arbitrary placement.

Had to clean up from dinner and wanted to say some things about the game before having forgetten those.

Sorry.  Won't be able to post the next one until very late Tuesday or Wednesday AM because cell reception in the bullding is horrible once there's more than a couple thousand people in it.

You've earned it Taro, it won't be official until you're ready.
