In one ranking of draft eligible prospects, Strome has now moved ahead of Eichel? Really?

I'd love to read the reasoning. Regardless, Strome will be a great player. He's not seen as NHL ready and he doesn't have the speed and elite skill the other two have.

Ran it 100 times and...

Buffalo 13 at 13%
Arizona 10 at 10%
Flyers, Jackets, Oilers, Avalanche 9 at 9%
Devils, Sharks, Leafs at 8%

What I got from this is that we 100% end up with Eichel!

Risto not on the ice this morning. Ennis on top pp unit.

So many dominoes. Just so many.

Edit: Risto is sick, likely out. Should/Could help

Kootenay down 2-1 in their playoff series. Game 3 was an 8-7 OT loss for them, and Reinhart had 2 goals and 1 assist. That sounds like a crazy ass playoff game!

any word on the goalie for tonight?

makaroon?

The Sabres have the easier schedule to end the season with
Tor
Chi
NYI
CAR
CBS
PITT

Arizona has
SJS X2
CGY
VAN
ANA
With the caliber of competition I can see ARI going 0-5 easily The Sabres have games against 3 teams that are out of playoffs and 2 of 3 are below .500 while the other is right at the .500 mark. Arizona does not play against a team that is below .500 if they get a split at the home and home with the Sharks we have a good change but anything worse than a split and we should be worried.
The Sabres are playing bad but Toronto and Carolina are just trash shows right now, if the Sabres squeak one win from a team they shouldn't then we are in trouble.
The good would be the fact that they last 3 teams that ARI plays are in the playoffs for sure and should be locked into spots so hopefully they rest some players.

Only advice I could give is let's just play it day by day. After all, the Yotes beat the Wings.

we are worse but we play a much easier schedule to finish out.. it may come down to the wire.. i wish we would have at least gone to OT on monday.

Lindy first off

Crap.. i was hoping for Makarov.. oh well he is bound to have another bad game. Any word on what is wrong with Risto?

Columbus has been on fire and Carolina has been playing well.

Toronto also just beat both Ottawa and Tampa.

The sky isn't completely falling?

Is the schedule that different though? I haven't looked, but assume that's the order in which games are being played. If Arizona is playing Anaheim to end the season, Anaheim is likely resting.

San Jose will be missing the playoffs and have a good chance to slump in those games.

Buffalo plays the current #4 and #5 seeds in the East (Pitt and Isles) and Chicago, so that should be 3 assumed losses. Columbus and Carolina are still better than the Sabres (i know, EVERY team is), and if they beat only Toronto then who cares?

But NOW they're motivated to beat these teams because some fans cheered the loss to AZ? Lame reasoning, but could be the variable that derails the tank.

You are all effing nuts.

Since when did Buffalo turn into world beaters?

They are in 30th for a reason.

I think you need to get away for a bit. It seems to be causing you great concern. May I suggest a nice beach chair on the coast?

They have no 'Integrity' so you never know what hey might do

And i see us going 1-5
- Smittyx36

If the Sabres go 2-4, they still "win" 30th.

2-3-1 and Arizona gets to OT once, the Sabres "win"

One win for Arizona and Buffalo has to finish 3-1-1, to pass them.

People are acting like one point from Buffalo and they are doomed.

Both teams play 3 teams currently in the playoffs in their final games. its the same schedule.
