View Full Version : TSN.ca logic:You lose twice in OT, you have more power than if you win all your games

This must be a canadian thing about losing in OT twice and being ranked higher than a team that won all it's games against last years 3 divisional winners, the president's trophy team and the Stanley cup champions. We also beat Detroit as well and they are ahead of us. It's going to take a parliament act to get the Sabres near the top with this logic.

Makes alot of sense doesn't it? Welcome to the new world of Scott Cullen.

BTW Scott, we we're like 18 minutes from the ECF in a game 7 last year with 4 injured D-men. We got basically all our team except Timmy and more back and are undefeated, this dude is just lost.

It's not the BCS - just one guy's opinion. Who cares where they rank the Sabres?
