  1. One point out of the playoffs. Almost February.

    This is what we asked for at the start of the season.

    Also thank gosh the playoffs don’t use a shoot-out.

  2. Great game but tough loss. Would’ve liked that buzzer beater back but we got a point and onto Carolina

  3. If only Dahlin was .1 seconds quicker

    Regardless, 3-0-1 in this road trip is EXCELLENT and we are right in the thick of things

  4. That was a hard fought game at least we got a point. Not sure how people are going to suddenly shit on UPL in the shootout when he got us there in the first place.

  5. Unfortunately UPL just isn’t that experienced in NHL shootouts. However, great road trip, getting 7/8 points against some tough competition.

  6. UPL gotta work on his shootout form. He comes out aggressive but he doesn’t close it down at all just kinda stands at the top of the blue paint which allows guys to deke around him. Very unlucky with the Kaprizov one but dang I woulda liked 2 points here we woulda been tied with PIT for the wildcard spot. Oh well 7/8 points is there on a road trip.

  7. I mean great road trip all said and done. Great job by the boys.

    Krebs on the 4th line is wild to me. Hated it at the start of the year. Thought he was too skilled, not enough grit and it would hurt his devolmpent. Fuck was I wrong. He’s an absolute stud on that line. Completely different player than he was last year, and the skill is still there. Great move by Donny. Great mentorship by Ox and Girgs.

  8. This team has absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. A win would have been nice but they deserve every single point they get. GO SABRE!

  9. honestly i’m thrilled with how this road trip went. especially this game, the last of a four game trip without cozens and sammy. definitely a trip to be proud of

  10. 7/8 points. Fantastic road trip.

    Kind of at a loss on the line combos this game but whatever.

    Shootouts are dumb. Get rid of them.

  11. The Sabres performed admirably on this trip and have points in 7 straight games. There is no need to panic as pittsburgh lost in regulation tonight.

    The Sabres also don’t play until Wednesday so they will have plenty of time to rest up to take on the juggernaut that is the Canes.

    Lets all stay positive! go Sabres!

  12. The effort deserved better than the outcome. I just wish we had another game sooner! This team is fun to watch.

  13. Washington still plays two more times before we even play again! I know we’re only one point back but having so many games in hand feels like an unfair advantage for them.

  14. also I can only imagine how happy this team is to not play until Wednesday then go into the all star break. some very deserved rest for these guys.

  15. Despite his shootout performance, let’s not overlook that UPL made some great saves to get it to OT in the first place.

  16. We did that without Cozens and Samuelsson. Let that soak in. Solid point, tough luck on the extra point. Let’s get on home and get ready for Carolina.

  17. Don’t forget UPL made some incredible saves to even get us the 1 point tonight. He’ll get better with experience he played well tonight.

  18. Given how much time is lost off the clock after every whistle, Dahlin’s no-goal is a bitter pill. The boys beat Fleury a couple other times tonight, but not the post. Bit of bad luck.

  19. Reminder that we did not have Cozens or Samuelson and we went to a shootout with a good team. It was a good effort by the boys

  20. These guys battled so hard and with so much heart. I am so fucking amped on this team right now! Don’t worry UPL, we get ‘em next time. Go Sabres! 🦬

  21. Wild fan coming in peace. Helluva game. Thompson is legit. Fleury didn’t even see his post shot, and that has to be the swiftest SOG I’ve ever seen. Dude is frightening. Good luck in the east.
