    As Sabres get pulled from the playoff push, an offseason idea becomes top of mind

    As Sabres get pulled from the playoff push, an offseason idea becomes top of mind

    Forget that Edmonton drubbing. There's a little runway left, and for now anyway, the Sabres can (mathematically) keep the playoff dream alive...

    Kris and Matthew, however, are still being realistic about the expected outcome.

    Have the Sabres really gotten better at handling the pressure per Don Granato's claims, or did they simply get a goalie that learned to handle it?

    But really, this episode was sabotaged by pre-maturely discussing a possible draft strategy for the Sabres come June. Feedback loop is open. We can't wait to expand on that discussion!

Thumps up

Always enjoy listening to your podcast. Thanks for making a disappointing season exciting.

Good listen

Impressive how Fairburn has become as good a hockey reporter as he was reporting on the Bills

Fairburn may be forcing me to subscribe to the Athletic despite the objectionable (for me) NY Times connection
