    Huge game for our push to finish 1 point out of the playoffs

  2. HarvesternC

    If I’m not mistaken, a loss would officially eliminate them or pretty close. Not considering tie breakers they could not get more then 85 points and a couple teams fighting for that last spot will have 85 points after tonight.

  3. JohnnyAD23

    Today feels like a good day for the team to go on a winning streak longer than 2 games

  4. cool_school_bus

    Dear god – please don’t let the Sabres give up 3 goals in the first 5 minutes
