On the episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by hockey writer and media personality Joe Yerdon to discuss among other topics if it's time to move the goalposts when it comes to managing the Buffalo Sabres' expectations. It's not a done yet but the Sabres find themselves in incredibly well position to end their historic 14-year playoff drought. Their 24-5-2 record over their past 31 games has them and us as consumers thinking that just ending the drought isn't the end of their story for this season. Joe gives insight on why Buffalo's primed not just to make the playoffs but potentially do some damage while in them. They also spend a time talking about an underrated reason why this team is turning their fortunes around---goaltending. UPL and especially Alex Lyon have paved the way for the Sabres winning ways to stay sustainable for a long stretch. Is Lyon the best unrestricted free agent signing of anyone in the league this past summer? Also, Mattias Samuelsson has been one of the remarkable turnaround stories we've seen on the Sabres in a long time. That plus Tage Thompson being honored, trade deadline buzz and much more.
