* Tyler Myers is on the ice for warmups and he will play tonight, despite rumours to the contrayr The Big Fella was sick this morning.
*Looks like Monty is feeling ok and will play. Mr. Mojo Risin will sit in his stead.
* Stephen Weiss, he of the wonky groin, is on the ice and will play tonight. He's missed the past two games for his team-- both shutout losses.

1st Period:
1-0 Buffalo
Connolly, Vanek and Pommer flood the blue ice--- Vanek is checked into Vokoun-- Pommer jams home a loose puck.
1-1Samsonov scores on a weak backhander that Miller and his D would love to have back. Where the Hell was the D zone coverage to allow Samsonov to freely walk out ofreely to a sogft slot. Zero Dzone fronting and puck pressure.

Sabres refuse to move their feet on every shift. They look content to coast.

Thankfully, the period ends with score ties at 1s.
Buffalo wins shots, 10-6
