Tank Thread and Tanking GDT XIX: Tankception (BUF @ CBJ)

[ZeroPT*]

So, we have the exact same lists. For the exact same reasons, save for Edmonton where it's basically so I can watch him at home or work haha.

we get Eichel and the main boards would lose their collective minds? Sign me up.

 

[Husko]

Yeah that'd be awesome. I absolutely love what Jarmo has done in Columbus, save the last few contracts. Foligno was fine because he's their heart and soul, but it was clear overpayment. They had to take on Clarkson and the Bob deal is really expensive. Hope they don't have trouble retaining their decent young players.

On the topic of McDavid, if we don't get him I want him in Arizona, Columbus, Ottawa or Edmonton.
Arizona: means wed get Eichel
CBus: so likeable
Ottawa:get to see him all the time
Edmonton:for the tears on HF.

Obviously, I want him in Buffalo above all

No love for Colorado? I've always liked them for some reason. Yeah, that might make them kind of stacked, but I'm okay with that. And it's out west, which is important.

I've always liked Colorado as well. They'd have a crazy stacked forward corps, but as you said, it'd be out west.

I'm moving to Denver in a few months, and definitely wouldn't mind seeing the Mac bros playing for the Avs all the time.

But I'm praying to the old hockey gods and the new that they will do Buffalo a solid and grant them McJesus.

I hate Roy. I'm indifferent towards Colorado but they already have Mack and Duchene. So no. Spread out the skill

I want main boards to go ape **** at the lottery winner. We could cause a lot of tears. Edmonton would too. Ottawa is the hometown team which is fun and Columbus are fun and easy to root for. And Zona bros because we became bros.

Toronto would effectuate that.

I know this is incredibly unlikely, but if the Isles missed and we got both McDavid and Eichel, this site would spontaneously combust from the rage and the crying.

 

[DazedandConfused]

Toronto would effectuate that.

Yeah but anybody who lives with Toronto fans would go ape ****.

 

[Ness]

I had a dream last night that the Sabres clinched 30th place, and in the dream I was asking myself..."Is this a dream or is this real?" So I have faith that Buffalo will Inception its way to 30th either tomorrow night or this weekend. My dreams are always on point.

 

[GiveAFlyingPuck]

Here's to hoping that Lack is a sieve tomorrow and Moss and the boys take advantage!!!

Vancouver could lose 1st round home ice if they don't beat us. I think they'll play us tough and the Coyotes will lose. If the Coyotes were to win, or you guys lose to Columbus, I won't be having conflicted feelings at the last game on Saturday. Hope our two teams are in some way picking 1 and 2.

 

[Moskau]

Apparently Cam Atkinson was injured during post game celebrations tonight.

It begins.

It begins.

Can't find any update, but it looks like his left hand/wrist caught the skate blade of one of his teammates as they were leaving the bench at the end of the game.

 

[ZeroPT*]

Toronto would effectuate that.

I've said it before, Ill be pissed off beyond belief if Carolina wins the lottery, and if Toronto wins it I'm moving to Pluto

 

[Bps21*]

I think toronto winning the lottery makes buffalo more relevant in the league than any team winning it except ourselves. They can sell the McEichel canada vs. Us rivalry for 15 years. Those home and homes...jesus what fun.

 

[1TuchAnd1NoTuch]

Being a sabres fan from Toronto I wouldn't leave my house for months if the leafs won the lottery

 

[FoSotC]

Hope our two teams are in some way picking 1 and 2.

Best case scenario imo.

If we can't win and get McDavid I'd love it if we clinch last, LA bumps Calgary, & then Calgary got McDavid. That'd be the ultimate consolation prize for them playing their ***** off all year only to get bumped by the Kings.

You certainly have to admire the season the Gaudreaus have had. They've been fun to watch too.

And Giordano's been phenomenal the last two seasons also. Too bad he can't stay healthy.

 

[Clock]

Little to nil hope for an Arizona win tonight and I'm not even going to try to watch this one tonight. Maybe our expansion cousins will hook us up, right? They've clinched, after all.

Is Miller back yet? Maybe we can convince him to "take one for the former team"

What home and homes? It would be more like Toronto 1 and Toronto 2. The amount of money they would pay to see McDavid play against Buffalo would be ridiculous. People would have their season tickets paid off by the first Toronto game, haha.

Please god I don't ask for much, just to live forever, win the lottery, have a hot rich wife. I would give up all of that for an Arizona win.
