I know I’m late to the party here, Buffalo Sabres fans, but that won’t stop me saying it:
About damn time!
I was following the Sabres – Panthers game on social media while I was watching my kids play games of their own (flag football and Pee Wee hockey, if you must know). As excited as I was to see the Sabres take a 2-0 lead heading into the third period, nothing made me happier than reading the scoring update for Buffalo’s third goal of the game.
Once I read Sam Reinhart’s name as the third and final goal-scorer for the Sabres, I made my wife endure my explanation of why this was the best-case scenario for the Blue and Gold.
