I guess it's easier to get around up there than I thought! This team is fun to watch and the crowd has really gotten into it a number of times this year already, including tonight. I thought we'd win, but not like THAT. Detroit was really bad in their own end we were really sharp. The mini come-back helped keep it interesting, but overall, a good win. We need to keep the streak rolling here. It would be SO MUCH more fun if we could get into close range of a playoff spot and STAY THERE for the duration of the season. 1 Quote

Well we're 8 points back with 4 games in hand. Maybe the 2 NY teams could slump that would help. 1 Quote

I was thinking of going to the game tonight thinking tickets would be like $20. The cheapest tickets are $100+. It's a random weekday game. Every time I see a game on TV the arena is half empty. What am I missing? Fewer season ticket holders mean less secondary market tickets. Also this Sabres team is worth the price of admission. But you can still find deals if you look at mid-week games against bad western conference teams. Quote

But it's nice to see this outburst of scoring from multiple Sabres, no doubt. If we had rock solid goaltending (we don't) and continue to tighten up team defense (will we?), we could do damage in the playoffs THIS YEAR....especially with the PP humming as it is. I still think we have a very outside shot at playoff hockey this year, but next year we will be there, and then we'll be there every year for a long time. We gotta get a goalie. 20 hours ago, I am the egg man said: My season ticket friend sold all his games. I snagged some and got a few games still. Surprising that he would sell them all NOW...we FINALLY have a team worth watching for the first time in over a decade. No joke. Quote
T&C Posted December 31, 2022 Posted December 31, 2022 Sabres playing the Bruins tough... 1-1. This would be a sweet win, esp. in Boston. Quote

Nextmanup Posted December 31, 2022 Posted December 31, 2022 That was a REALLY GOOD hockey game made even better by the late goal and the huge winner in OT. I would have been OK with a loss, especially with the penalty trouble we got into in the 3rd...then that 3rd goal came and I was thinking "Oh come on! Just get it to OT and take that point!" And then we WON it with Bergeron and Marchand ON THE ICE. Dillon Cousins was awesome on that play and what a nice goal from Tuch! Nice to see his mom down low in the crowd to enjoy that one. Big shout out to UPL as well, who had a very solid game, kept us in it at times. This team is a lot of fun to watch. 2 2 1 Quote
TBBills Posted December 31, 2022 Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) How the *****!!!! That was some crazy Goaltending and an amazing block and pass by Dahlin. Edited December 31, 2022 by TBBills 3 Quote
