Sabres on a War Path

by Steve

Crow sandwich never tasted so good! In case you were in a cave Tuesday night or one of the many, many, shitty "sports bars" across Buffalo, the Sabres won a decidedly one sided affair 5-1 tonight in Washington.

Yes, I called it the Buffalo Sabres Super Bowl. Yes, I predicted the Sabres would choke and lose. Well I was wrong on one front. It was a supremely important game, but the Buffalo Sabres showed stones, they balled out, and they dismantled the Washington Capitals in their own barn.

Does this mean the Sabres will definitely make the playoffs? Are Ruff/Regier geniuses? Does Buffalo have good sports bars? No, none of those things are accurate.

However, I and for that matter most Sabres fans may be under-appreciating or underrating this team. At least a little bit any way. This game took stones. The Sabres dominated and showed they wanted it more than the Capitals. Soooo..

Bravo, hats off to the the Buffalo Sabres. Even Derek Roy for christ's sake! But, now it is time to finish the job and make the playoffs and hope you don't see Pittsburgh in the first round. (Oh and I didn't even mention that I realized in the first period that Washington is actually a bigger choke job hockey team than Buffalo is)

Either way, great game, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
