Two good games yesterday, Sabres/Devils and Ducks Oilers back to back were both very entertianing game imo. Interested to see what the Pens do with Sid out,... do they ride it out, do they use some draft capital for someone like Pettersson,...??

Fair enough. They’re at an all time high point for the franchise

I’m not sure they have to make an all in type move, but I think they have to do something to at least try and maintain their playoff spot.

I’m pretty sure they have more draft capital than any team over the next three years,… andcap space,… they can add now without really going all in I think. Dubas has been doing pretty well at adding now while still building for the future, at least in my opinion. Doing both at once ain’t easy. A year ago I thought a hard rebuild was the only way for my pens…

The bracket currently would have Sabres Pens in the second round, that would be amazing and I wouldn’t even mind it if it ended there. Buffalo fans deserve a run

Love the Bills but there's something different about playoff hockey in Buffalo. This entire region is ELECTRIC. I think it's because you play multiple games but the entire week or so is just on a different level. I'm so excited for it, especially because it seems like we're not crawling in, well actually he a firm team. This city will go crazy for playoff hockey and my kids will finally get to experience it.
Edit did some math... Sabres are at 60 GP and 76 points. 94 points is 1 point past the projected need for 8th place to avoid multiple tie breakers. The sabres have to find 9 wins, 18 OTL, or a combo thereof lol. Essentially a 41% winning pct in their final 22 games.
Man this doesn't feel real. Keep stacking points boys!

The divisions are crazy this year,… you take Ottawa and the leafs from the Atlantic and trade them out for the knights and ducks who are atop the pacific, the Sens and Leafs are fighting for first in the pacific and the knights and ducks are swimming near the bottom of the Atlantic,…

Reinforcements should be on the way pretty soon. Anton Frondell and Roman Kantserov should be in the top 6 with him next year. Plus about a 20% chance of getting an instant impact guy in the draft.

They also have the most cap space so expect at least one or two improvements through FA… for now if you’re a hawks fan you’re not that far removed from multiple cups, enjoy the process.
