Sabres' streak wiped clean

Ray pulling for old pal Parker in Super Bowl

'"That's the good thing about (sports)," Ray said. "When guys move on or get traded to other teams or whatever, it's not as if somebody dies.

Rick looks like the real thing, but...

'Before a much-anticipating crowd of 14,248, DiPietro provided them hope for the future by making 29 saves, and adding an assist, to boot.
