How many points do the Buffalo Sabres get this year?

[Dubi Doo]

What say you?

The defense will still be in the clouds sometimes, but the offense will be there and I think a handful of games that got away from them last season will end up as wins. Health willing, they should end up in the high 90s.

Had the o/u at 86 last year, I'd put o/u at 95 this year.

I think it's gonna be another close bubble this year unfortunately, East is a gauntlet.

I was off by a point last year. This year, I'm going with 101.

I was close last year as well, although they did finish a bit better than I thought. This is the year they FINALLY break through and end the drought. 99 points.

Can't wait to read this thread in April.

 

[Mattilaus]

Going with 98 points

I love this team and am excited for the season. However, don't think we did enough this off-season to make a huge jump and make the playoffs

94 points

I think we're going to be right around 95ish points.......and it's gonna be down to the last day if we make the playoffs.

Tough to say with the inconsistent play in the preseason, with some of the additions from the offseason (minus Benson) and fringe support players looking downright bad. At this point, I would venture to guess a larger field of numbers of 85-100. Too many things can happen, and if we get hit with a nasty injury-hit season (we are due for one), I haven't seen enough support from the players we would use that could fill some shoes that well. The offense still remains, but if teams actually gameplan for our offense, it could be for a rough year. We're not going to be surprising teams this season.

Obvious answer is 1 billion as I believe in statistics and you can tweak statistics to give whatever outcome you want

 

[Aladyyn]

98 points and the first wildcard spot

 

[THUNDERBURST]

99

 

[MarkusKetterer]

93 points

 

[Snippit]

90 points. Keeping it conservative. Our D zone play will hamper us.

 

[Djp]

Assuming we aren’t hammered at once with injures like last season losing 4 of 6 Dmrn we should be in the WC hunt.

the thing is if you have a bunch of teams in contention thrn the tendency is it lowers the WC line to 90 or less points

isaid in another thread I think the worst teams are in the 75-80 pt range.

 

[Zman5778]

isaid in another thread I think the worst teams are in the 5-80 pt range.

Who's the 5 point team?

Will @Ace go on record, I see @TehDoak already has

There isn't a 50-60 option...so no.
