Buffalo will achieve this dubious honour in their 32nd game. Sidney will have 51 points. McDavid will suffer forever as an oiler.

The Buffalo Bills will be eliminated from playoff contention at this time as well just to add further insult to ineptitude.

Buffalo Sabres 23 GP 37 Goals

Stickarts
Dec 21, 2003

literally

Dec. 9th: 48 goals for in 28 games. That's a pace of 35.6 games, which is to say game #36 is on pace to see the 61st goal.

Stickarts posted:

Sabres gonna go on a 2 gpg tear and net their 61st goal in the 36th game of their regular season. Crosby will be "a game against Buffalo" behind at 56 points.

The Sabres' 36th game of the regular season is happening December 27th in Buffalo against the Islanders. 8 games. The Penguins also have 8 games till that night. Crosby has 35 points in 27 games. He is gonna need to go on quite a Gretzkyian tear - 21 points in 8 games - to reach my tiebreaker. Crosby is currently on pace for ~46 points, though this has also been a godawful stretch for him. Articles are being written about his poor play! Must be the moon.

Other game 36ers' predictions:

Sharks Eat Bear: 53

Mind_Taker: 56 (you just copied me, you jerk)

Benson Cunningham: 49

NHL.com's standings add shootout wins to the goals scored total, so Buffalo is actually still sitting at 44 goals on the season.

Oof. Very well. You think I would have maybe caught that myself. Anyway, 44/28 = Game 39.

Wienerdog has game 39 with Crosby at 52 points. Which would take Crosby getting 17 points in his next 11 games.

Bjay9 re-upped on the 39/Crosby 52 train.

Ceyton Also did the 39 game, with Crosby at 59, a heady 24 in 11 games.

40 games (Crosby in brackets)

Naet (58 - 23 in 12)
Koopa Kid (58 - 23 in 12)
DOOMocrat (60 - 25 in 12)
Ginette Reno (63- 28 in 12)
