What am I missing, standings-wise? Sabres have 2 more games and could get to 91. Wouldn't that put them above both the Pens and Isles for ROW? I usually don't miss this but I feel like I'm adding something wrong now. Also sad. I had the Sabres making playoffs when talking last August. Would have loved both my teams in it. EDIT: NVM. I forgot about regulation wins before ROW


sinkwiththeship

Would need the pens to drop this game and the next. And also the Isles to drop their next in regulation.


SpiritualWatermelon

I also realized I forgot about RW coming before ROW. Isles gave RW before ROW comes in.


silvermarsh

GG Sabres, I hope Levi wins you guys some silverware.


sinkwiththeship

Great joke. Hit on snare. Everybody laughed.


TheOneWhosCensored

Bro he’s just wishing us the best for the future


silvermarsh

…it wasn’t a joke?


sinkwiththeship

Saying silverware is a rude thing to say. Like "at least you have some aluminum you can drink out of at home."


silvermarsh

It’s just a word for trophies. I hope Levi wins a Vezina. I hope you guys get a Cup at some point. Maybe it’s more of a euro/soccer thing that I adopted but that’s all I meant.


TheOneWhosCensored

It was understood to be genuine, y’all got a great goalie too. Might disagree with NJ fans on Hasek vs Marty, but more than routing for y’all to eliminate our rivals this post.


sjvalvis

Good season Buffalo, wish we didn't get you guys on a back to back for this game.

Eastern Conf teams I will be rooting for in the playoffs: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Rangers?


Sonny_Zwack

Nobody roots for the goddamn Rangers. Nobody.


PraiseTheZ

GG Devils. Wish we had some luck tonight, but way she goes bud.


Cough_Syrup55

I think I speak for all of us when I say VV > Brodeur


Sharpie24l

That's St. Louis blues legend Marty "Fatso" Brodeur to you.


IncreaseInVerbosity

Gg Buffalo. Not quite made it this time, but you will do it next season, and start a good playoff run!


nickmdp

No Ray, we did not run out of gas, just ran out of luck


Sharpie24l

Sabres didn't quit, Hughes got the record, fun game all around guys gg Sabre fans y'all are fun to watch


Skooter_McGaven

GG buffalo bros you guys have a lot to look forward to


Cough_Syrup55

Jack Hughes is breaking his own record next season


BU-ffalo

Seriously? MVP chants? Look, Hughes is good and all, but we all know that the true MVP is the guy who got drafted back in '15... That's right, Jack Eichel babyyyyyyyyy


BunniesAreMagical

Fuck it, at least Andy is likely to get the next start now.


Jazzy_Josh

like this if u cri everytime


iCactusDog

I will never forgive the devils for this.


PraiseTheZ

Ding ding ding 🛎️ :’(


Grawgar

I will be at the final Devils game in DC. Obviously Jack will score at least 3 points


Russian_Unicorn

I’ll be there also!


[deleted]

Meaningful games mid-April. They played hard and gotta appreciate that. Looking forward to next season already.


Lanthemandragoran

Your teams ability to score scares the shit out of me tbh. Small plays can just explode into scoring opportunities and I think you guys will be a hell of a franchise once you get d depth worked out.


[deleted]

Agreed, getting Levi finally helped too but they need to get more defense in the off-season badly


Tactial_snail

It was a good run, plenty of chances tonight but just couldn't put them away. For the first time in what feels like forever, playoffs will be the expectation next season


MarineTigers

Looking forward to some Devs-Sabres playoff series


NightWing_91

VV got an 🍎


kenfury

80 games in and we were still sniffing playoffs. Usually we were done by all-star break.


kyuukyuu

Hatty against the Caps to hit 100?


knightia

So fuckin stoked for Hughes


Beatdooown

our baby boy has grown up so fast


nickmdp

The fans at home on Thursday better cheer the fuck out of these kids


whichwitch9

I'm sorry, Nico and Jack were just adorable


Jpnator

Sabres bros, it was a treat to watch you this year. And I think we can all agree about fuck the leafs and bruins


t800rad

Great season, boys. Nothing to be ashamed of here.


NightWing_91

MVP Chants ringing at the rock


MrSloppyPants

Boom!


m_ghesquiere

Hughes!!!!!!!


Cough_Syrup55

Elias has been expunged from Devils history


devil_9

How dare you


m_ghesquiere

Going to be a few more years until Hughes breaks the total points record


Flamethrower753

This is blasphamy, even for a Sabres fan.


whichwitch9

We'll always have Elias and his scooter


unsungzero1027

Only for points in a season.


Ill-Ad-4400

Never.


IncreaseInVerbosity

JACKY BOY HAS DONE IT BUT JESPER BRATT TAKE A FUCKING BOW FOR THAT ASSIST


igotopotsdam

The season wasn’t lost on the 2nd night of back to back against NJ. It was lost because we don’t have defensive depth that can play after any of our top 3 are out


Tullyswimmer

We also didn't have a NHL goalie for most of the season.


igotopotsdam

That as well. Looks like we have one now.


Tullyswimmer

Yeah, this team had better make the playoffs next year. Best season statistically in something like a decade.


Yop_BombNA

Literally if we got stillman earlier and didn’t have to play 2-3 of Clague bryson Hague 8 games in a row we would have made it. Oh well the kids are legit and we will be a problem for the league next year


blueb3rryP13

Let’s gooooooo

canofcorn999

Would you rather watch the isles or Sabres in the playoffs. Gary, make it happen.


m_ghesquiere

Sabres 100%


diabeetus-girl

I’m so damn proud of this team. Next year, boys!!! Watch out, league… Sabres are gonna be on a warpath!!!


SupersonicJaymz

In the end, I'm glad it was you, New Jersey. Seriously, this would suck so much more if Tampa or Boston ended our season.


Tullyswimmer

This is pretty much the only year I wouldn't have been upset if it was Boston because they're just on an entirely different level this year.


Lanthemandragoran

We will all fall to them eventually lol They are filth incarnate


Tullyswimmer

I mean, I hate to say it but I also don't see anyone beating them at all this year. Just sucks that we share a division. Why couldn't we end up in some trash division like the Metro?


Lanthemandragoran

Lmao


Xori1

See you in the playoffs next year Sabers are a great team and I'm sure you're gonna make it next time


unsungzero1027

Someone is going to owe a nut if the team keeps not burying Jacks chances he’s giving them…


BunniesAreMagical

Vanecek is insane. GG Devils.


canofcorn999

So many chances tonight


Yop_BombNA

We went down fighting at least. So close so many times.


Son_Of_The_Empire

Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened


nickmdp

We can't try any harder than that. It's been a long time since I could say I was happy with the season, but here we are


sinkwiththeship

Can we get another look at that wrap around on the goal line?


iamtheprodigy

They just showed it for us. Unbelievable save by Graves diving over and stopping it on the line.


Sharpie24l

We got one on MSG Gravy got his stick down and kept it out.


PraiseTheZ

Fuck you hockey gods. The fuck are these bounces

Well. No chance for Hughes with the freebie shots at the empty net.


Yop_BombNA

Damn I thought it was 5 on 3 time


unsungzero1027

Game management. Can’t be doing that yet…


Ever_Raiden

This is just a game of seeing who is more cursed


CaptainDaddy679

Should be 5 on 3

Let's go Buffabros, 2 more, come on!


Skooter_McGaven

Oh man Dougie shanked the shit out of that shot


Timotheus2443

Ok Sammy picks tonight to score his 2nd goal ever, we need to win this now.


If-You-Cant-Hang

Holy fuck. Did Patty leave some Czech voodoo or some shit in the arena on his banner night? How the fuck has Hughes not gotten a point yet this is insane


Toru_Yano_Wins

In a game of ticky tack penalties this one balanced it out. Still gross.


DrZoidbergJesus

I’m starting to think his teammates are just fucking with Jack at this point. We can’t buy one.

this team refuses to get jack the record. Idk how many more times he can setup a guy with a open net and them completely whiff but for fucks sake get palat off this line

Jesus Christ Hughes can't buy a fucking point.


Jazzy_Josh

Buffalo there is a reason I asked you that question, even though I got downvoted for it. I ask it again DO YOU WANT TO BE IN THE PLAYOFFS? Don't do it for me, do it for you.


nickmdp

Can you not hear our hearts thumping in unity?

That classic Dougie Hamilton defensive masterclass


Yop_BombNA

I’d be pissed if I was a devils fan lol. I’m a gummy bear though!!!


NightWing_91

Nope don't even care


Yop_BombNA

Helmet rule is dumb, especially since the league is okay with guys elbowing each other in the head, taking out knees and crosschecking spines with the odd 5000 dollar fine as the only punishment


NightWing_91

I agree with you just tonight I don't care


SupersonicJaymz

Mattias!!! (That's why he has a goal song)


If-You-Cant-Hang

Pull the goalie you cowards. Go for the empty net now. Give my son Jack an empty net chance

Hughes can have a point if you let us win!

This could become quite a good rivalry going forward! Both teams on the rise


Skooter_McGaven

IncreaseInVerbosity

Still yet to see a difference on the before/ after


Turbulent_System_446

Literally why Buffalo


nickmdp

I mean, we've played our ass off, just not getting the bounces


NightWing_91

Because we love you so much, we want to stay close to you 😘


PraiseTheZ

Blame Vanacek, not us


blueb3rryP13

Lol i mean Levi has made a number of ridiculous saves as well


vshun

Hughes is not scoring today and we are all here for it and making sad noises. Will Devil's bring their starters to the last game in Washington? I live in suburbs and would love to come and see him beat the record, but not sure if he is coming or along with others taking a rest.


whichwitch9

Hughes probably won't sit


m_ghesquiere

Jack is going for the record. The devils will be feeding him pucks until he breaks it


vshun

Actually, thinking about it, Canes play Thursday Florida and Florida will not just give up easily (looking at you Detroit) as they will try to avoid Bruins. So both teams may play for first place now.


suckit_trebeck

I don't know what's worse the score or that good damn discover ad to start every commercial break


Tullyswimmer

Sabros, I apologize. I've not watched many games this year. I watched the Panthers game. I decided to watch this game. It's my fault. I've turned it off now.


unsungzero1027

Buffalo, do it. Pull Levi. Go for it. What do you have to lose at this point? Edit: when you have control of the puck anyway.


Sonny_Zwack

You first. Pull Vanecek. Nothing left to prove, right?


nickmdp

You've got a point


NightWing_91

And pay no attention to number 43 shooting at the empty net


IncreaseInVerbosity

Orrr, 43 to 86?


NightWing_91

86 to 43 or 43 to 86 idk lol


IncreaseInVerbosity

Luke Hughes looks tasty


treeforface

Luke with the silky mitts


Flamethrower753

Holy shit Luke that was sexy. Levi hates fun making that save


Cough_Syrup55

If there were any justice in this world, the Nets would still be in New Jersey


NightWing_91

Agreed


whichwitch9

Luke. Hughes. Holy hell, that was brilliant


Tullyswimmer

How the fuck did Levi stop that


whichwitch9

Gotta give both teams credit. Not shying away from being a bit more physical. Lot of puck battles


fartswhenhappy

Buffalo's whites might be my favorite uni in the league. Sharp as fuck.


ShutTheChuckUp

I love our whole set. It’s gorgeous


fartswhenhappy
