hello... (echo.. .echo... echo)

[Turf]

5-2 looks a hell of alot better than 4-3. Go Sabs!

[RedEyE]

I'm loving it. The Sabres have already worked up 10 pts after 7 games!

Ottawa is going to be freaking tough. Hell the whole division is going to be tough.

Thanks for the updates and the videos.


Uh...NOTE TO ESPN: I really can do without the love affair with Boston and Joe Thorton. Thank You.

You still check ESPN for hockey-related things? Come on, folks! Besides, I tired of their man-crushes on the Avs' players long ago. :peace:

A great game tonight. The Bs are against exposed as a team made for the "old" NHL. Why aren't Samsonov & Bergeron utilized more, instead of the hulking beasts? Alas, Buffalo showed more speed, and kept the puck moving towards the net. Ryan was again stellar in goal. He really only gave up 2 of the goals, since he never even saw goal #3.

And as for the PP--- :clap: It's about time, guys!


Next up for Buffalo: The Rangers! :bighug:
