you guys won't have to worried about the Oil,Hall is coming back next game I believe,the Oil will win probably another 6 or 7 games from the remaining games.

They won't win that many but I think you're correct that we don't have to worry about catching them. The Yotes are the team. They don't score.

Tonight's win means we need the Yotes to win a game against a good team at some point.

I like their chances against the avs and sharks

Good thing he is still winning games because of all world goaltending.

We have watched the worse hockey the last two years. If they don't finish last, EVERYONE SHOULD BE FIRED. I know for a fact,everyone in the front office is tanking. They had no intention to get out of last place all year. If they don't finish last,they all get fired

They either need to win a game against a playoff team or beat the Sabres both times they play.

The Leafs could lose every game and we wouldn't come close to them.

Darcy REGIER ruined this franchise and now he will stick it to us. We will not finish last. The yotes have bought in, murray is still drunk

All depends on the Oil goalie,if Schrivens is letting softies in then yeah they won win that many but if he does stop the puck enough then the Oil can score enough to win lots of games.

I would absolutely love it if we finished 29th and won the lottery. The 48 hours between would be epic to look back on

B/c if we lost in regulation tonight , even back to back losses against the yotes would still have us 2pts up, not so much now
- bberkey1



If we lose both Arizona Games , they will be up 7pts, but if we had lost tonight we would be clear by 9pts.

I'm not following your logic?

It's a hot stretch but i don't think it will last. This is basically the sabres at their best right now, once the law of averages kicks in and we face a desperate enough team its going to come crashing down hard.

Underrated part of this victory is it not being a regulation/overtime win. Could very well be a necessary tie breaker.

What's the deal with mediocre goalies who all of a sudden become Hasek-like when they play on the Sabres? How many games have we been brutally out played this season but somehow we have snuck out a win due to unbelievable goal-tending? It has to be at least 10 by now. With the way things are going, if Murray told Hackett to play every game for the rest of the season, they would probably win half of them.

We have a coach who is not on board with the organizational vision, most likely gets fired, and probably wont be offered another head coaching job in the nhl.

Good thing he is still winning games because of all world goaltending.

I will let everyone in on a little secret. In Nolans contract murray CANT tell him who to play. The Sabres front office is tanking and Nolan ISNT and 100% will be fired and your coach can't be told who to play. How dysfunctional is this organization

My bad I thought you said oilers as I had typed a post about them previously.

In any case, those two gimmie wins against them ( I still think we crush them) will allow the oilers to slip past us

He's done this with three different average to below average goalies this season. We've stolen so many points from goalies standing on their heads. I bet even Ochotanko if he could play would look like a Vezina winner about now.
