All you can do is laugh (or cry) at this point
So we made a video a couple of days ago talking about how the playoff race in the East is really heating up and it’s going to be fun to keep an eye on it down the stretch you’ve got a bunch of teams fighting for that last wild card spot notably Detroit Washington the
Islanders Buffalo and New Jersey the one team that this hits completely different for compared to all the others though is the Buffalo sabes look we spent plenty of time talking about this on this channel I don’t want to go all the way down this road again but you know the
Drill they’re trying to break a 13-year playoff drought which is one of the longest active streaks in Pro Sports despite trading franchise players fully rebuilding even tanking and getting tons of first and second over all picks and then also trading some of the players they got with those picks the drought
Lives on it’s been death taxes and the Sabers missing the Playoffs for over a decade now that’s not why I titled this video what I did though I mean Sabers fans they’re used to missing the Playoffs at this point it’s that annual second half of the Season surge that the
Sabres routinely seem to go on like this tweet sums it up perfectly for the Buffalo Sabers like I’m aware kylo poso wasn’t one of the top players or leading scorers on this team so losing him and trade didn’t exactly have a massive impact on the ice but off the ice I’m
Sure was sizable I mean you trade away your veteran Captain with a ton of experience he’s known around the league to be a fantastic top-notch person off the ice he gets traded to Florida and instead of folding the sav go out and they win three games in a row including
Dominating two of the teams they needed to catch in the Islanders and red wings those were massive four-point games for Buffalo and it brought them right back into the playoff race coming into the rematch with Detroit on Saturday if they would have won they would have only been
One point back at the last playoff spot instead you know what happened Washington and Detroit have been winning even though Buffalo dominated Seattle in their last game they came in yesterday four points back at the last spot Detroit beat Columbus in overtime thanks to the same guy who iced the game
Against Buffalo a couple days earlier and he’s from Buffalo so this game in Vancouver got even more important for the Sabers coming off a back toback playing against the top team in the league they battled really hard last night you got to respect them for that Devon Levi played great Rasmus Dalene
Was well Rasmus Dalene the hockey gods are still getting to kick out of torturing the Sabers though when pucks like this are trickling their way in in this fashion and your team loses by one goal all you can do is shake your head actually after this one I was thinking
About the Pedro Pascal Meme and honestly that’s all you can do if you’re a Sabers fan They’re Not Dead in the Water by any means and I this has been said about this team for years but it’s true the future looks bright in Buffalo I mean Dalene power Byrum and samelson alone on
The back end should make you excited Benson is developing really nicely you’ve got Matthew savoire I guess he likes to be known as Matthew seavoy he’s going to be a real player and then in my eyes the brightest spot for the Sabers this year I think he’s their MVP this
Season he’s been phenomenal in 2024 he looks ready to be a true number one goenda and their fans but man it feels like that was their chance their opportunity to grab that second wild card spot that game against Detroit and because of how poorly they started the
Season they need to win more than a team like Detroit who won a bunch to start the season so that game against Vancouver felt like one that they needed to have like I said they’re not out of it right now but they need a lot to go
Right here like first of all they need to win a lot and they need to hope that Washington Detroit and the Islanders all suck basically their biggest glimmer of hope has got to be that Washington has a minus 27 goal differential and the Islanders minus 23 that usually doesn’t
Happen on genuinely good teams but that’s still such a tall order you need the Stars to really aign here and you need some serious help from a bunch of teams everybody that’s going to be playing against Washington the Islanders and the Red Wings let me know how you’re
Feeling sabr fans cuz Hey I mean there’s still a lot to like with this team especially going forward I just want this playoff drought to be over for that fan base man I can’t even imagine the people who’ve been watching this day in day out for 12 13 years here give me

As a Sabres fan all I can do is laugh and cry at the same time about my team. Same thing EVERY SINGLE YEAR, play terrible till late February and then turn it up in march and early April
Aloha bah(Hawaiian bro) 🤙🏾
GO CAPS!
The fact that this will be their 13th consecutive missed season in the playoffs is wild
Granato is wrong coach for that team.
Is the voice slightly speeded up or has some1 spiked my drink. Sounds like a fast forward button wants to fully kick in, that or i'm slowing down in molasses?
This is not the drought on my mind. I'm Canadian and all I want is to see a Canadian NHL team win the stanley cup
I remember the oilers playoff drought. That was a sad sad time as an oilers fan. 10 seasons.
I’m glad to hear the Oilers are no longer the playoff drought kings, But to hear 12 seasons coming from buffalo is just…. Yikes
If buffalo misses the playoffs again they deserve it they should play more consistently at the beginning of the season. It proves that every game counts
as a pittsburgh fan, im going to go ahead and start asking for coping pointers from buffalo fans.
The Sabres are still the yougest team in the league. They only got younger at the deadline. Still have a very bright future.
They were massively out played by the Canucks last night !
As a Leafs fan…its basically impossible for me to feel any sympthathy for any team down on their luck… life is pain, get used it. 😉
What is that laughing/crying meme from? Id love to see the original video.
bad teams tend to play well when nothing is on the line. thats why they always choke
As a long suffering Sabres fan you've just got to set your expectations at zero every year. That way your aren't disappointed… again!
Levi played insanely well yesterday, should’ve been 9-0
Buffalo fan here—the only qualm I have with Granato is how “challenge happy” he gets sometimes, I don’t like that about em, trying to challenge every little thing is ridiculous and makes him seem cheap tactically!
I’ve always hated the “coaches challenge” in the NHL because I think that the game has become oversaturated with its usage—I am a traditionalist and human error part of sports…just play the goddamn game already!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤷🏼♂️
You speak way too fast! Slow it down!
The close lose against Vancouver hurts last night but there’s still hope
Im 33 and was not 21 the last time the Sabres made the playoff. Last time they won a round I did not have my full driver license yet. I have watched or been to 90% of the games in the drought and sure watched them before. They are my only team and sport
Last season: All we need is goaltending
This season: All we have is goaltending
Canucks fan here I was legit cheering for the Sabres last night. Hope you guys make the playoffs.
The score didn’t reflect the nucks vs sabres game the nucks dominated the game levi just stood on his head
Bro, trust me, nobody sane in Buffalo even got their hopes up during that little 3 game winning streak. 1) They had played 2-3 more games than the teams ahead of them… so it really was NEVER close. And 2) most people considered this team eliminated long before even Christmas. It’s been a failed year from the start.
And with all due respect, you can take that “bright future” stuff and shove it up your arse. After 13 years, we’re not buying that positivity head in clouds BS anymore.
Ya Buffalo is the only American team I do like in the NHL, Not only that they came in to the NHL same year 1970 as Canucks! They put up a good fight but as always fall short? GO CANUCKS!!
I’m a leafs fan and I’m almost rooting for them… you know it’s bad when. It’s like torture
The Florida Sabres South:
Reinhart, Okposo, Montour
Dear Sabres fans:
You're welcome.
Sincerely,
Leaf fan (Buds beat WSH 7-3 today).
As a Sabres fan I’m desperately hoping for a miracle the last time they made it to the playoffs I was in 1st grade. I’ve been graduated for 2 years now
@Johnny Hawkey Were did u find that Ukka peka lukenen clip like the short vid that you put in the vid were did u find it?
Get's go Buffalo!!. Go play golf that is…..
Canucks dominated that game btw. Even if it looks like it was a one goal game.
