Buffalo Sabres Vancouver Canucks Fan Chatter #51
Hello hockey fans, we are back for another night of exciting Sabres hockey, watching the Sabres, Oilers and Coyotes tonight to see who moves closer to the race for 30th.
The Buffalo Sabres came out strong against a less than average Columbus team and took and early lead and also maintained that lead, which we don’t see very often. They held on to win 4-2. As for the Fan Chatter, last game was our 50th fan chatter of the season, for the Sabres and it was an anniversary type of night, 2 games for the winner.
It was a night for the ages, as they say, we had 4 people playing and we all scored over 200 points, seeing as the point options were pretty high for each pick, we all didn’t too horribly. The low was 205 that was brought in by Wolfdoctor. I think this may one if not the only game that he has finished last with points. He is usually, if not winning, second place with points.
In the end, it came down to winners and selecting 7 of the 8 winners, I was able to secure the 2 game win for myself with a score of 274.
With 2 games left in the month of February and with these also being the last two Fan Chatters that I write for Sabrenoise, we are going to go out with a bang. Lets make it interesting. Shake it up a bit.
I think that these last two fan chatters will be equalled to 3 games each. 6 game swing at the end of the month. Wolf could really take the lead or someone trying to catch could make up some ground quickly here. Make these picks count.
Before we get into the picks, here are the standings as they are coming into tonight’s game against Vancouver.
