When the Sabres are battling for a bottom playoff seed it's:
No anything can't happen, they'll get smoked by Boston, Montreal, whomever. Their record against them doesn't matter.

When they earn a top three seed its:
ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN OH NOES! BOSTON IS 4-2 AGAINST US!

I know what you mean. Do people not realize that when the Sabres have a lower seed, they perform better?

1999: 7th seed, SCF appearance
2000: 8th seed, NEARLY an ECF appearance
2006: 4th seed, ECF appearance

Whenever I pulled the "anything can happen" card, people pull the "bullshit" card.

And whenever we're a higher seed, people pull the "anything can happen" card. "P

You forgot:

2006: 4th seed, ECF appearance, 7 games
2007: 1st seed, ECF appearance, barely. Almost swept.

Wasn't necessary. Was trying to show that the lower seeds can do anything.

You're like that annoying guy who always has to one-up everybody every chance he can get.

2000? they got blown out of the water by the flyers in 5 games in the first series. you may mean 1998, when they lost in 6 games in the east finals as a 6 seed, or 2001, when they lost in 7 games (to a 7 seed) in the conference semis. buffalo was a 5 seed, tied with philly as 4.

Bullshit. I say they're winning round two, but I have no predictions from there. Made that claim days ago on Twitter.

My bad. I definitely meant 2001.

Why is this being hashed and rehashed??

It doesn't matter what seed you are, it's hard to win a playoff series. Nobody is a push-over. You have to make plays and be clutch.

Yeah, I think they're going to get past the first round, but nothing from me after that haha.

I do think, though, in general, not when it comes to making predictions but when it comes to acknowledging that anything can happen in a genuine way and not just as a concession... I think that happens less with Buffalo fans than with fans of some other teams.

The team who wins, is the team who puts the puck in the net more than the other team. You can bet on it. ;)

The playoffs are an entirely different kinda game, dont base what you have seen in this season or last season to the playoffs this year. Anything can happen!

I saw the title of the thread and assumed it was about the playoff history of the San Jose Sharks.

Nevermind.
