Maxim Afinogenov injured, knee to knee collision with Spezza went to the Sabres dressing room on his own power though

[BillsSabresB.C.T. Fan]

Afinogenov: deep thigh bruise (will not return tonight)

[pyrrhonist]

Another injury in a meaningless game. :up:

The NHL's preseason is getting to be as bad as the NFL's. There have been too many star players hurt so far this preseason. :mad:

[JD]

roy probably draws more penalties than anyone lol.

vanek with a hat-trick..sabres up 4-3 :up:

[BillsSabresB.C.T. Fan]

Amazing, since when do you see two hattricks in one game! :up: oh and one other thing shure Hamel couldn't do anything here in Buffalo but he can score a hattrick with the Ottawa Senators what's up with that :down:
