I'm at work, so that's good news for the Sabres

Damn it, I knew I should have skipped out of work early to head down to the game. Really good seats were $35-$40.

It's only a 3 hour drive too

Quite the opposite. It's 30 games. Florida has also had serious injuries, and have had their franchise D have an off year.

And it's being blamed solely on the "philosophy"

We are in our 2nd year of building, and we are to be patient.

Panthers are on 32 games of a "philosophy" and it's already deemed a failure?

So you use floridas injuries as an excuse,but when people were using it for the sabres you beat the good teams overcome injuries drum.

I'm saying that wasn't mentioned in the blog. Just like the good FA's and trades weren't mentioned. Just "oh hey they like analytics, and there record isn't great, 2+2=4."

Also, have I said the Sabres should have never missed a beat without Eichel? Pretty sure no one said that ever. I'm pretty sure it was more, we shouldn't be the lowest scoring team in the NHL, even without Eichel

To be fair the injury thing was more of a junior beating the drum about good teams overcoming injuries.

But looking at the standings, the Panthers and Lightning both are struggling with injuries and it shows in the standings...

Eichels first hat trick, ristolainen 6 assist and the unsung hero Molson with double hat trick... sabres win 4 -1.
