All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Never should have gotten there. We were up 2 in the first and didn’t score again til OT.
2 teams battle ...... **** is gonna happen.
Everybody loves it when it's easy ..... but we know it usually doesn't happen that way.

I agree. But that's not what happened. Hockey is a weird game.
I'm happy they came away with the win and some positives are starting to surface.
Gotta stay positive.

Of course it isn’t easy. But two teams beat us in regulation. We’ve beaten 0 teams in regulation.
Really that's where you go

I've had more time to digest the game. I'll address OPivs concerns.
It always stinks to give up a late goal and give a team a point (or more) especially a team you're expecting to compete with for a playoff spot. Especially after they went out and got a two goal lead.
It does take the wind out of the sail of a win. There's Definitely a "but...." after that win.
That said, Tampa isn't a pushover. They aren't the juggernaut they used to be, but they're a team the Sabres should be near when the standings shake out. So a win, in any way, is a great outcome.
There's slight concern about Tage. He just doesn't look like himself yet. That said, he had 3 points in his first 7 games last year before he got 11 in 3. Nothing to panic over.
I get the feeling this is the sort of game that gets things rolling, perhaps slowly. Especially with Cozens finally scoring, and Levi playing his best game of the season so far. But the power play has got to get going.
Loving the direction ..... that's really the bottom line in anything.
We're on a mission!

Love the overtime format so damn exciting ..... I'll play anybody with these guys in an OT situation just so dynamic holy ****.
I told my wife right at the start of OT there’s no better team than the Sabres 3 on 3, we are really fast and the open room on the ice will be a death show for our opponents. Time of possession in OT, 99% Sabres.

They were just awesome.
When did the Lightning get their 1% unless your counting the shots on their goal.

The 3 on 3 OT will change, though, as it's become less of an end to end, rush on rush it was at the beginning, and more of a slow burn. Like what the Sabres did last night is now the text book attack style of 3 on 3. And that's not what the NHL wants.
I firmly believe the NHL will institute a shot clock in OT down the line.

The 3 on 3 isn’t hockey. It’s a way to end it quickly that draws interest from people who aren’t really hockey fans. It’s a slam dunk competition. It’s a home run derby. It’s NBA Jam. It has elements of the game but it isn’t how the game was meant to be played.
It’s an opportunity for skill players to have the time and space to make highlight reel plays, instead of the only school 20 min OT that dragged on into the night and often resulted in the most hated outcome in North American sports: a tie.
You can argue the merits of 3 on 3 OT and the shootout. It’s exciting and it gets eyes on the game. But it isn’t hockey.

In fairness, regular season OT was never longer than 5 minutes. And they didn't even have OT until the 70s or 80s. After 60 minutes, the game would just end in a tie.
