Do you believe 2+2=5?
Do you believe 29x2=62?

Your Canadian style math assumes games are worth two points but that’s not true. Wins are worth two points but many games carry a three point value.

Yes, they have 62 points. But they also have a losing record.
How is 31-30 losing?
They don't have a 29-32 record because that's only 58 points. They now have 62 points.
4OT/SOL is equal to 4 points. Or two wins. 2 losses when reducing the overall record down to just wins/losses.

No they don't. Again the OTL's are there to give them a point for going to OT...and losing. They're still 29-32.
They are 31-30 = 62 points.
29-32 = 58 points.
As of today, Sabres have 62 points.

No. The "4" is OT losses which count for a point but are still losses. So they're 29-32.
I was wondering about that 4OTL/SOL
Okay. But you're wrong.
They have 62 points.
29-28-4
29×2= 58 + 4 = 62
OR: 31-30
+4 points instead counted as 1/2 wins 1/2 losses. Why can't that reduce down to:
31-30 = 62 points.
The Sabres now have a winning record!

Great game but not a winning record yet. Someone mentioned earlier if they had the scoring from last year with the goaltending from this year we'd be in a real good place.
They are one game above .500 now.
29-28-4

Stanley Cup Chumps. Easy Western Conference teams... Beat the Las Vegas Golden Showers in first game 5-2 earlier in season. 😏
Same thing in that game, Sabres poured in 4 3rd period goals back in December.
Can't we play the West all the time!
Gotta winning record!

Thank God the bulk of this was underground:

Yet debunked here:
And modern vehicles have EVAP systems. Charcoal canisters to collect vapor. You still run risk of FUBARing thar system if you top off tank during heat of day.

Wait....Aren't there above ground fuel tanks in South Korea?
We just dug up our diesel/gasoline tanks at work and put them above ground a few years back.
They hang the pumps too:

Also temperature sensitive. Why they have awnings over pumps. NOT just to keep you dry in rain.
You really shouldn't buy gasoline during the day in hot summer sun, you are getting ripped off, less then you're paying for. The awnings help mitigate this temp, expansion issue.
Remember the old glass fuel ⛽️ pumps. Pump in and fill the amount you can see.

Are you complaining about the complainers? 😆
Not a good look. 😉😜

Nice summary of the 90s...the last great decade in my opinion
Opinions are like arsholes, everyone has one.😉😜
Every generation has a decade.

But they have 62 points, not 58.
You said their record is: 29-32.
They don't have 32 losses. They have 28. OT/SOL are not regulation losses. YET, OT/SO WINS go in win column. Like our benevolent Canadian lover noted. Nice Canadian math. 3 point games, not 2. So, when determining a pure win/loss record, one would think the 4 points would be split. Which... Keep the equation balanced with 62 points.
The fair thing to do is call it 31-30. A winning record.
And anyway... 29-28-4 IS a winning record! 😆🤣
