yeah Tied on a great pass and shot by las vegas 2-2 I don't fault the goaltender on either of Vegas' goals. Sabres can still totally win this game

Yeah, Knights are missing four forwards. I don't care. We are rolling them.

Time for the storied end of season charge to 9th place, but at least they are entertaining again.

the long time fans are just sick of unfufilled expectations. I totally get it. Entertaining works for me for now. We dont have much choice as fans. watch or move on to something else. I am happy too have hockey back in my life especially the Sabres. And I'll watch the cup series too I think.

 

 

 

 

 

ROLLING THEM INDEED 💃🏿🎉😎 6-2 yay 🙂

 I was just telling the wife this is like deja vu all over again....

 

I'm enjoying the games and hoping to see a memorable end of the season run.

Keep fighting, keep winning, got to break through one these years

Goallll on cue😄

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!

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

 

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!

Irrelevant, really.   The issue with the Sabres is not reaching the playoffs and as the now 25th best team in the NHL they are BURIED behind 5 teams for the last wild card and 4 of those teams have games in hand on them.   As was mentioned earlier in the thread, they are just playing better because the pressure is off.

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.

FYI in case anyone is interested  on Page 1 of this thread there is a link with Sabres game schedule 2023-2024 on it. Since I am here anyway it saves  time from needing to search elsewhere. Easy to find Post one

 

March game schedule is a bit wonky.

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.

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.
