They will make it in!
As a wildcard, yes! Conditional on staying relatively healthy (which is a big ask). One of NYI, Pitts or Jersey will slip.
It's an exciting time to be a Sabres fan!
absolutely subbed this was an awesome take, you nailed so many great points in this video..I feel the same way, the boys are a playoff team just not yet mathematically..what a year this is becoming 😊👍
Yes hopefully they are a playoff team but what would help solidify that believe would be if Adams could aquire a veteran D man like Luke Schenn from Vancouver, Matthew Dumba from Minnesota or Gavikov from Columbus . All are UFA this summer and rumoured to be available .
If Adams is interested in aquiring a veteran Dman then he needs to do it ASAP as the price for a veteran D man on trade deadline day is usually a 1st or 2nd round pick . Florida paid a 1st rounder for Ben Chiarot last spring then he signed with Detroit in the summer, OUCH ! While Mark Giordano cost Dubas GM for the laffs a 2nd rounder but he was able to resign him this summer.
Also some much needed grit up front would help as teams know the way to beat Buffalo is to out hit them like Ottawa and Washington did recently. Added grit to the 3rd line would help their forecheck and probably stop opposing teams from taking so many runs at Dahlin. Forwards who might be available could be Jordan Greenway or Marcus Foligno from Minnesota, as maybe they have too much grit up front and not enough scoring on the wings??
Thanks for the video and didnt you predict the Sabres to make the playoffs at the begining of the year?
In my opinion the sabres are one of the most fun teams to watch. Its starting to feel like the 2005-2007 era when no matter the score it always feels like they have a chance to come back and win.
They’re on pace for 118 points since the end of the losing streak. Very hopeful
I haven’t been this excited about hockey in 17 yrs during the tank yrs it was just depressing the players knew what was going on and u could see there was no passion now watching them u can see the difference a coach who inspires the guys he’s coaching
I feel the sabres could make the playoffs but they need to dramatically improve the team defense and they need a reliable starting goalie. As it stands now if they were to make the playoffs they would quickly be eliminated.
I don’t think we’re making it this year too many mistakes in our own zone and turnovers in the neutral zone/offensive blue line, I say just out of the wildcard then next year if everyone keeps up their play and can clean up those mistakes we’ll be a playoff team next year
I’ve been loving every game I really hope they keep it up!
we don't say it until it happens
We have 5 players on this team that are a point a game players.
If UPL can continue the good play, and maybe we can make a trade for a defensive defensemen – a top 4 guy. That could change the entire dynamic of the defense as long as no crazy injuries occur.
You didn’t mention Cozens…..he’s also on pace for a crazy statical year, point per game
Dude is awesome
UPL the starter rn dudes sick
Literally if they went 2-6 on that 8 game losing streak they'd be 2 points out of a play off spot with a few games in hand as well
Objectively, it's going to be difficult for Buffalo to make the playoffs. There are just too many stronger teams in front of you guys. Furthermore, your goalies are good, your defense is average, your forwards are better but like I said above, the other teams in the East are more complete. But lets play the games and see what happens
Tuch always wanted to be here, found his way home, and has been perhaps the biggest piece of the cultural transition and persistent positivity in the locker room out of all the players, a connection or conductor between the fans and the team that's irreplaceable and oh by the way how beautiful/magical his story is let alone if/when we start rattling off Cup appearances
