A Baker’s Dozen worth of goals
Sabres 8 – Capitals 5 (en) In the Capital city of the United States of America the Buffalo Sabres invaded Capital One Arena and scored eight times on one of the best teams in the NHL.
Overlooked possibly because LW Ovechkin scored his 890th goal skating even closer to the NHL scoring record so Capitals fans can be excused if they are not upset over losing one regular season game to one of the worst teams in the League.
Here along the Lake, we did take notice that for the second time in three games the Sabres have scored seven or more goals, so now Lindy has to win five out of the last nine games to reach 500%, a herculean effort considering his 13 game winless streak and losing the first two games of the season to the team that fired him before the end of last season.
Winning towards the end of our 14th season without a playoff seeding ensures losing out on a top lottery draft pick and maintaining a sense of meh, sometimes we win and sometimes we lose atmosphere from the team as fans watch exhaustively waiting for postseason play to cheer about.
