Worst case scenario.
Detroit was up 4-1 , gave the leafs a point

- Boss34


same with Philly. They came back and squeaked out a point as well. I can't believe im already scoreboard watching in December #parity

Yea but they still managed to get a point after being down three in the third.
- Pegullaville


I'm rooting to keep 8 teams behind the Sabres from here to the playoffs.

Is this the right approach?

Ok, were on the same page:

Clearly root against/ with no loser points:

NJ
Phili
Det
Ott
Isles
Fla
Rangers
Car

If they lose constantly it will lower the playoff threshold. Hopefully to 90-92.

Detroit's now in 9th with a fake +1 over .500 in the win column

There probably on a 85 -87 point pace

Correct strategy. To me, we will be fighting it for the 8th seed with Carolina and Philly. These are the teams that I am watching the closest. Here's the teams in the playoffs in no particular order:

Toronto
Tampa
Boston
Pittsburgh
Washington
Columbus

and 2 of Buffalo, Florida and Philly.

The rest of the teams (except Ottawa & NJ) will hang in there until Feb but by then it the top 9 in the east will start to separate.

At the end of the day we opened up enough of a cushion that we decide our own fate. Start getting back into the win column and we’ll see what happens. I just like seeing the other teams in the East around us lose.

Blow that team up

Also, Chicago. Blow that poop up LAST year.

We are going to add 4 solid players in the next two years. I believe in this scouting department. Mittelstadt has started slow but has given me no reason to believe that he won’t be the 3rd best player out of that draft behind Pettersson and Heiskanen
- Pegullaville


Nobody goes 100% though

In Botts time as AGM in Pitt,
they were 2 for 6 with their 1st round picks

I wouldnt mind CM and Skinner together. Sheary is a game changer and could work with Jack better now than at the start of the season.
- CoHo_to_B-Lo


Huh?
He’s ok, but i can’t see how anyone would describe Sheary as a “game changer”
He’s done none of that this season

Might be sam?

Eichel
Mitts
Skinner
Okposo -ntm

Dahiln
Risto
Pilut

Ullmark

What happens if another young guy breaks thru?
Or we trade for someone else?

Or both?


Depends on how they structure the new expansion draft.


I'm not saying I want that to happen.

- Boss34


If we’re only protecting 3 defensemen,
then we can protect 7 forwards

If we want to protect 4 (or more defensemen),
then we can protect a combined 8 skaters between forward & defense

I sometimes feel like I'm the only person in Buffalo who likes winter/snow.

Except snow in March. Really, March in general. (frank) March
