I was excited about tonight’s Buffalo Sabres game in Montreal against the Canadiens. After the long All Star Weekend, I figured that the Sabres should be well rested to play their divisional rival; especially because the word playoffs has made it back into conversation.
For being Buffalo, they had a “strong” 1st Period. They had some scoring chances, got 11 shots on net, and Robin Lehner looked, good despite letting a goal.
As usual, Buffalo took the 2nd Period off. Apparently the Sabres did not watch any of the All Stars Skill Competition or Game, because they could have used some tips and pointers.
