  1. Pretty much do or die at this point. No pressure.

    At least Jason Robertson is a ton of fun to watch.

  2. Time for the 19 game win streak to close out the season and make playoffs, right?

  3. Going to my first game in over 10 years. Here’s hoping the boys fight like the seasons on the line

  4. Excited to see greenway on the first line, he, skinner,and Thompson had one shift together in the first game he played and it seemed like they had no problem controlling the puck the whole shift. Excited to see more meatball magic with this decision. Plus i like the thought of mittlestatd feeding quinn on that second line. Guess we will see tonight what happens.

  5. We’re basically a three game win streak from catching the Islanders in points percentage. And some people are already saying better luck next season? God, I hope the players don’t have that attitude.

  6. This is a game we will really miss Tuch’s size. I think we either win 3-2 in overtime or lose 6-1.

  7. I’m going to tonight’s game after not having been to a game in months. I hope we can win it

  8. They’re not out of it yet but they gotta get the W tonight! String together some wins fellas!

  9. Brian Pochmara is the ref tonight. Whaddya know, sabres have a 1-10 record with this zebra in the last 2 seasons. I hate that I’m so jaded lately my first look ahead of a game is what are the odds the refs fuck us but things don’t look awesome tonight

  10. We’re 10 overtime losses from having the same record more or less as the Stars. This doesn’t seem right to me.
