Some #Sabres rumblings in @FriedgeHNIC 31 Thoughts

February 22 marks the anniversary of three large events in hockey: Miracle on Ice Sabres - Senators brawl Pegula purchasing the Sabres

Today marks the 10-year anniversary of the Pegula’s owning the #Sabres. Here are the 10 most unbelievable stats during this time. buffalohockeycentral.com/202…

We've added last night's 3rd-period effort to our #Sabres Playoff Drought page: buffalohockeycentral.com/202… Days since Buffalo's last playoff game:

Jake McCabe has been absolutely phenomenal this season. Currently ranks 2nd in the league among defensemen in xGF%. Only behind some guy named Cale Makar, ever heard of him? #Sabres

Four of the top six league leaders in xGF% at 5v5 are #Sabres (90+ minutes TOI) The game results may not be in their favor at the moment, but numbers show a team in an unlucky stretch and certainly can be a playoff team this season.

Sample size is super small, but when you allow the fewest scoring chances against per 60 and still gave up 8 goals in your two games... Make. A. Save! Data via @NatStatTrick #Sabres

A 40-goal and 30-goal scoring tandem getting bottom five ice time at 5v5 is less than ideal when you’re struggling to score...#Sabres
