GDT: Sabres @ Dallas 8 PM EST TV:MSG Radio:WGR550 - Go Through the Motions

Yeah, it says we don't have Chicago, SJ and Anaheim to rack up points on

Don’t be too sure about that one. 0-2-0 on the season…

The Islanders have defeated the Rangers, and Washington has defeated Detroit. Anything less than a regulation win eliminates the boys.

Might as well go balls out in the 3rd and pull the goalie early if nothing on the scoreboard changes

Is that true? Without looking at remaining games schedule, TSN.CA shows WAS with 85 points with 4 games remaining, BUF with 79 with 3 games remaining. If BUF wins out and WAS loses out, BUF will have 85 points and the first tiebreaker with WAS. Common opponent games may not be factored in.

State media every bit as bad as you would expect. Marty Biron makes me want to turn off my TV a la Elvis, f***ing gutless weasel.

I'm not going to get mad at Marty for doing his job. I won't watch either, but this is what he is paid to do.

I officially stopped watching after the first period of the Detroit game. But I will ask anyone who suffered through it -- how was Krebs? He got less than 10 minutes of play...

DeBoer matched one of his top 2 lines against Skinner/Krebs/Greenway all game. They didn't generate a whole ton of offense, but also weren't overmatched.

Krebs was himself -- looked semi-dangerous at times, ultimately resulting in nothing. Yeah, he got a point -- but it was a secondary assist on a Dahlin shot that really should have been stopped; had UPL allowed that goal, it'd still be being talked about.

Still mathematically too soon to present Donnie and KA with the 13th consecutive:

Not too early. Tomorrow's game for Pittsburgh vs Detroit will bring one of the teams to 86 points, which will be more than what we can get in our final 3 games (85 points).

thanks. As I said, I didn't check common opponent games, so makes sense.
I can't get NHL.com standings to load on any device so don't know what they show re: elimination.
TSN should show it correctly. English-metric conversion doesn't apply to possible points math.

They don't show eliminated teams on the Standings (only playoff clinched) from NHL.com. I only know that they are officially eliminated because I've been keeping tabs on the teams we are fighting with for a spot, and looking at their schedule. But some media outlets may wait until the outcome of THAT game to officially show them eliminated.

Did anybody catch Marty Biron calling out the team postgame? Heard some people talking about it but I turned it off well before then

 

[Howie Hodge]

She's an "instagram model" whatever the hell that is. I think it's right up there with "influencer"...I wonder if Dallas' coach tells the players that they're doing extra laps if they get caught eyeballing those things. Must be distracting as hell especially for those very young players

Hell, I'm an old man and she's distracting!!
