Could The Buffalo Sabres Make The Playoffs? 

UPL has been absolutely dominant the past 3 months!

Adams knew the impact of trading Mitts was far less of an issue, than the impact of adding Byram. Brilliant trade imo. And already, since the trades, they're getting a whiff of it!

UPL played second fiddle yes, but he was our most consistent goalie last year as well. Even better than Craig Anderson. I believe he had the most wins last year of all the goalies. Battling injuries, not enough net time, jumping around into the minors, and really no faith in him he needed. Not to mention he is in his early 20s, and like defensemen, goalies take along time to mature their games and adapt to NHL caliber shooters. As long as he continues to get stronger and less injury prone, I believed he was always going to be in the conversation of future 1st string goalies for the team. Nobody but Levi also holds that level in my mind. A UPL and Levi Tandem will make this team elite. Levi is going through the same song and dance that UPL did. Goalies need reps and time. I can hear the LEEEEEE and LUUUUU chants now

Was waiting for your apology on the Bo Byram trade lol

Moved up to an 8.5% chance to make the playoffs. Let's see how this road trip goes!

Up coming road trip is HUGE ! After the must win game in Detroit the boys go to Seattle Vancouver Edmonton and then Calgary. Hoping they can Win at least 3 of those games. Last season I went to the CBJ game in feb and the Sabres were terrible and lost in regulation! When I left I said this loss could cost the Sabres a playoff spot and as we all know they missed the playoffs by 1 point last season ! I just hope the two earlier losses against Anahiem dont play a part in costing them a playoff spot this year . Thanks for the video !

The boys r gonna get there

I really going to miss this guys, especially Okposo good on scoring and a really hard player.

It's crazy to even think that

They will make it.

Apparently, they didn't want it enough

I wouldn't get my hopes up. They will grab defeat out of the jaws of victory

Yea, they could win out rest of season and still the odds are against Sabres making playoff. To damn bad. My feelings are if they don’t start next season playing at high level in first couple months to make a big move with coaching. Otherwise a lot of prospects and top players will be gone again. ..and the cancer will kill off the rest.

I have hope though.. no matter what happens, this season was a fail. KA shelled out huge contracts for potential 1st and 2nd line centers who both took a step back. Progression in the nhl is not linear, and perhaps cozens and thompson will grow this offseason, but without big jumps from all their top 6 forwards and consistency with the rest of the roster this team will be fighting for wild card spots and not truly contending for the cup

Didnt ya just lose in Detroit this weekend? As Colorado fan-im pulling hard for Bo,& you guys.But we LOVE Middlestadt-hes EXACTLY what we needed so far.And Walker fits what we needed better in the immediate.But as I said when the trade was made-this is gonna be win /win for both Colorado,& Buffalo,& eventually Bo will be the best player in these trades-if he can stay away from the concussions. But we need to go for it now while Mckinnon,Makar,Rantanen,Nichuskin,& Toewes are at the peak of their powers.

Uhhh next to no one saw UPL as the 3rd string to start the season

No way. Too little too late. They should have made moves last year instead of keeping the same roster, starting with Okposo.

Keep playing like they did the last two games and playoff chances are more like 50% than 8%.

Mittelstadt was only the top scorer because Tage, Skinner, and Tuch have been injured. Mittelstadt is not a team top scorer unless key players are injured. Okposo was not leading the team in the right direction. We are seeing the Sabres salute the fans again after wins. Also, we saw this last year with the Sabres making scratching and clawing for points at the end just to be a point behind. I'm not holding my breath this year.

yall need to speed up to catch up with bo

It’s crazy how they collapse in big moments. Wings game was pathetic and why it’s hard to keep it positive when things never change under Donny. Sabres will miss the playoffs again

No.

This happens every year. Glimmer of hope and then they crap out. Youth, goaltending, soft play. Can’t wait to hear this seasons excuse.

Lololol0olol

Way too dramatic. You quickly become a bore.

I love how they are playing for sure and hope they can get one of the final spots. Just wish 3 to 5 more wins before would have us sitting pretty. But a late push is better than no push. Go Sabre's !!! 😎👍🏒
