I remember hearing a stat at the time, that no team that was 1st overall in the league standings after American Thanksgiving had ever gone on to miss the playoffs. (and in fact, just being IN a playoff positing at Thanksgiving gives you something like a 75% chance of making the playoffs).
Anyone else hear that stat? Will the Sabres be the first in league history to earn this distinction?
Just one year after making history as the first NHL team to finish a season in 31st place.
But we're sometimes in games heading into the 3rd period! That's progress!
The lack of standards from ownership down this season is ****ing disgusting. I'm getting more and more willing to bet it's going to cause Skinner to walk, so Botts will immediately overpay whoever this year's Ville Leino is.
