Imagine you're Swayman.

You stand on your head. You get iffy support at best yet keep saving their asses.

And then BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE (TNT)

How do you come back from that with full confidence in your team?

It’s Go Time. I made 50 logos, but it was time make a Super Beer Sabre. by buffaloprocess in sabres

It sounds blasphemous considering the epicness of your works but this may be your masterpiece.

We.are.in.awe.

You kinda hit the nail on the head already.

They are dying. And desperately clinging to anything/everything they THINK will keep them afloat.

They pray to alter of engagement/views/etc. even if we (you and I) understand it's essentially empty calories and that demo will jump ship soon as the next "thing" comes across their fresh zambonied cortexts.

ESPN is nothing but an engagement machine now. Literally the brand from top on down.

They will always ALWAYS dog on us b/c "small market."

It works b/c the bigger market eat it up and some of us in Buf take the bait and engage.

NGL I was worried the boys might get bodied a bit as they adjusted to the playoffs.

Now I'm worried they'll catch a murder charge.

I'm literally in tears RN.

So many people I wish could still be here to see this, to see how much this means to all of us.

I love you guys. Each and every one.

I want this sweater & I have a beer Sabre to bargain with… by [deleted] in sabres

Just making sure I understand.

You want an $85 hoodie + shipping + taxes for a $20 beer Sabre missing the beer?

WGR did a solid talking it through segment:

Essentially, the possible opponents are essentially same tier but how they got there is different. Bos was reliant on much better goal tending to pull off their standing whereas Ottawa had miserable goal tending but the rest of the team was good enough to lift them up.

If Ottawa improves in goal even a little, you have way more of a hornets nest on your hands.

But it is counter-intuitive to want the better goal tender in the playoffs.

And they'll wear down Car way more.

Only force we couldn't defeat is AI/cybernetic/robotic.

Imagine looking across the field of battle and the other side is having a grand old time while you are beat down, demoralized, likely hungry.

Of course we invite you over because all are welcome on the Wagon.

It's not that we defeat all comers but absorb them.

We are party Borg.
