Sabres: It's your patriotic duty as Americans to keep the Ottawa Senators out...

[Ð]

Let's face it. Nobody outside of a 100-mile radius of Ottawa gives a crap about the Senators, and the Canadiens, well they're the Canadiens.

Do you want to suffer the indignity of being the only US- based team in your division to miss the playoffs ? Well I have a deal for you...

Continue the hot streak & the Leafs will continue to throw bones your way by deliberately throwing games to help you make the playoffs.

i.e. you guys win out against the Senators Feb 28 & Mar 3 and we'll give you the three games against the Leafs Mar 6, 15 & Apr 2.

It's a win-win for everyone...

Well, at least that was one of the more creative reasons given for what happened on Saturday!

I'm all for beating either Ottawa or Montreal, but I don't think Buffalo alone is going to make a dent in Ottawa's point total.

LOL, I didn't cath the leafs game. I was at a hockey tournament in Sens territory (Sens on CBC, rather than Leafs), so played Nintendo with the kids rather than watching second-rate hockey.
