I like the STAT line. Skinner Thompson And Tuch. Stuffing the STAT line
At the begining of the year I was hoping we would be in the playoffs hunt at least. Now I want more hahaha
Dahlin deserves it. Arguably one of the best defenseman in the league.
gotta get dahlin in the all stars
Joe, I understand you are excited for your team, and that is the reason you are a big homer in this preview. Objectively though, I think you're underestimating and overlooking the Minnesota Wild. The Wild have a better record than Buffalo, have more points, but Buffalo do have a game in hand. Minnesota goalies are better than the three Buffalo goalies. Buffalo may have an advantage in goals scored. Minnesota scoring isn't as high due to injuries to a few forwards earlier in the season. Minnesota defense is technically solid, and they play an exciting two way game. Minnesota is on a roll now is 100% healthy. Saturday's game should be a fun game to watch.
Another great night on Friday for the playoff chase. I think I would have preferred Florida losing to Detroit, but other than that, a near perfect night for the Sabres playoff odds.
