Buffalo on their third game in four days on the road…head into Winnipeg down their top two centers…get completely run over in shots and chances…with their 2 wins on the season backup goalie playing…and they lead by two.

That’s so Buffalo.

Everyone concentrates on the losing…the make zero sense wins are just as funny

Of course they can still lose this if Winnipeg ever decides to beat *checks notes* James Reimer
 
Jets get it back.

We believe in you! Actually we believe Buffalo can blow it…but you’re out there too!

Dahlin tripped Reimer and he couldn’t get up…made a glove save from his side.

Then a puck went off his teammate for a chance he managed to stop.

The Sabres are trying to lose it but Reimer has held strong lol
 
Jets pulling the goalie with 3 minutes left is interesting.

I seem to recall that the conventional wisdom was to pull the goalie with about 60 seconds left down by one, 2 minutes if down by 2, and to not bother if down by 3 or more unless it was a playoff game where you'll get eliminated if you lose. It was programmed that way in the first NHL game I played (NHL 2000) without fail, even if the AI-controlled team had a defensive zone faceoff.

Teams have been doing it earlier and earlier in games down by a goal. One of the stat-ish pod casts had some numbers on it that in my cold-med induced haze I can't remember. Same guys who talked about the slingshot being the top entry for NHL teams on the PP even though everyone hates it.
