    New ESPN article... new to me anyways

    BUFFALO -- If the NHL is a sporting nation made up of 30 communities, Buffalo is the curious, maybe even mystical, place that's not really on any maps and only gets discovered by travelers who get lost in a blinding snowstorm or fall down a rabbit hole.
    Think Shangri-La meets the Island of Dr. Moreau.
    In the movie version, visitors arrive in the Sabres' dressing room and look around, waiting for a familiar face to appear, a Brendan Shanahan or a Peter Forsberg or even a Bobby Holik. Instead, all they see are players who look as though they might be the maintenance guys at the HSBC Arena or the cable guy or the pizza delivery guy.


    The Sabres have been quietly winning in anonymity, writes Scott Burnside. Until now. So, who are these guys, anyway?

            I am Gunnery Sergeant Hartman, your senior drill instructor. From now on you will speak only when spoken to, and the first and last words out of your filthy sewers will be sir. Do you maggots understand that?
