Remember in the movie Stand By Me where the main character is having a nightmare after his older brother dies of his father looking at him and saying “It should have been you?”. That horrible feeling that in his biggest moment of pain and need he felt like he could never live up to his big brother and that the wrong son died?
The wrong Buffalo sports team’s season ended. It should have been them
Anything less than 5 of 6 points on this CA trip downgrades their playoff chances from lottery ticket to impossible, imho. 6 teams and 9 points separate them from WC2.ANA is well behind Buffalo in the standings. If the team (players especially) truly believe they are a competitive, playoff quality team, this is a game they MUST win in order to gain traction in the standings.
Players should be prepared to play tonight. If they do their normal no-show for the start .... well actions say more than words.
Agreed. 6-2 Sabres.This one could get ugly
3-2 win. Sabres sleep walk through an ugly 1st period but UPL saves their bacon.
Is UPL confirmed for tonight? Because frankly I'd rather go with Levi tonight and roll UPL tomorrow against the much, much better opponent.
So, no, its not reliably confirmed.Harringbone has said it's UPL tonight and EJ is still out.
