So, how good is actually Buffalo? That's my question.

Better than last year. No dead weight really. Hutton looks good.

WC contender

We have a winning record for first time in over 2000 days. I smell the Stanley Cup

 

[gallagt01]

Buffalo is probably a bottom-10 team still but they're very clearly improved on some level.

 

[sabremike]

With the victory the Sabres have an above 500 record (real or NHL version) for the first time since 2013.

 

[Name Nameless]

So, anyone found out what stuff Mr Schmidt tested positive on?

The important thing is to have contact with the field. Score goals and all...

Tonight's game against the Red Wings is 25 years to the day the Mighty Ducks played their inaugural game. Props to the schedule maker for working this out for our anniversary season.

Enjoy the spectacle that was Disney....

 

[Claypool]

Watching Karlsson trying play defense is always entertaining.

 

[Sansbacon]

Until they prove otherwise they are trash. For too long they have been absolute garbage wasting everyone’s time.

Sounds like some of the comments I’ve read in this thread...

You could just as easily be describing the Islanders with that comment....

 

[Panthaz89]

If Hutton continues to play this good a WC is actually possible.

 

[LongWayDown37]

It’s nothing personal man, but people been hyping Sabres with Eichel and all and had nothing to show for it. I gotta see them do something before I respect em.

Ironically hilarious coming from an Islanders fan “wasting his time” with this on a thread.

Columbus Day

Still not an official holiday

It was a big win for the Sabres. VGK are one of the better teams in the NHL. This is a great confidence booster for the Sabres. It's a long jam for 1st in the Atlantic.

yeah I'm surprised no team has pulled away in the Atlantic yet. I wonder if it's because there have only been a handful of games played

 

[Theo Von]

Am I the only one who thinks the scheduling for the first week has sucked across the league? Some really bland matchups and too many days with just 3-4 games on hand.

Yes absolutly you are not alone on that...Oilers and Devils have been MIA since Europe which sucks for both fan bases as well as Tampa and Florida for reasons unknown.

Probably because Tampa has played only one game. It would not surprise me they are the class of the Atlantic. Regardless, Montreal and Buffalo look improved. And Ottawa has already beaten Toronto. Going to be fun.

 

[Mez]

Seems as though the Eastern conference has quite a bit more scoring than the West. 26 more goals scored by teams in the East so far. (95 vs 121)

 

[LongWayDown37]

Explain the irony

Think hard islanders fan, taking time to complain about the Sabres wasting his time. There are a couple of points of irony in there.

 

[JerseyMike34]

Alright time to get a good look at the Ducks!
These jerseys are sweeeet

 

[Woodrow]

Am I the only one who thinks the scheduling for the first week has sucked across the league? Some really bland matchups and too many days with just 3-4 games on hand.

Yes and this Friday has no games at all scheduled.

 

[theanomaly]

For sure, these Ducks jerseys are a beaut.

 

[HanSolo]

Holy shit they look so much better on the ice. Absolute beauties.
