Czech, please: Sabres cash in

'The Sabres found just enough holes Wednesday night to squeeze out a 2-1 victory in the series opener before 19,543 fans in the First Union Center.

Gilmour lights Sabres' lamp with spirit

'Curtis Brown says he's noticed the change over the last few weeks.

Sabres' D, veteran stars too much for Flyers

Hasek delivers first strike

'Because while Hasek played the drama queen, his teammates' efforts could best be described as perfunctory. Both Buffalo goals were unspectacular. But Hasek was at his best and the Sabres' stingy defence -- tops in the NHL for good reason -- handled the rest in a dull, grinding fashion that got the job done.' … [Read more...] about Hasek delivers first strike
