Don't even mention Malkin right now. I'm already bummed out that he's injured, and could possibly miss his trip to the West Coast in November. :( My wife & I have tickets to sit right behind the Pens' bench, and everything.

I'm already pissed I underestimated the demand for tickets to see Ovechkin come out West last season, and now that I have the tix to see Malkin, he's hurt. :mad:

Sabres Win Marathon Shootout

September 23, 2006
by Rob Crean

It took an eleven-round shootout between the Buffalo Sabres and Pittsburgh Penguins before a winner was finally decided Saturday night at Copps Coliseum in Hamilton, Ontario.

Clarke MacArthur's wrist shot beat Pittsburgh goaltender Dany Sabourin to end a marathon shootout and give Buffalo a 3-2 victory.

Trailing 2-0 after one period of play, Buffalo scored once in the second and once more in the third period to force overtime.
