In late October the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League were locked in a scoreless tie with the New York Islanders when, suddenly, Sabres right wing Ales Kotalik scored on a booming shot from the top of the left face-off circle, one-timing a pass from Jaroslav Spacek past Islander goalie Rick DiPietro.
The goal by Kotalik, one of the deadliest snipers in the league, started the Sabres on their way to a 3-0 victory and a record-tying 10th consecutive win in the new NHL season. The Sabres are a favorite to win the Stanley Cup this season. The team leads the league with 58 goals scored. "Offensively they're head and shoulders above the rest of the league," says Adam Proteau, an NHL Web columnist for Hockey News.
