A Tale of Two Teams

In larger cities there is an excess of distractions for the average citizen to escape the monotony of a daily routine. For the residents of Buffalo, New York as the Bills and Sabres go, so does the demeanor of an entire city.

The idea that the two local professional sports franchises have such an impact on the city’s mood is more a testament to the passion of the fans rather than a knock on the other aspects of entertainment the city has to offer.

Enroth impresses again in Sabres’ fourth straight win

‘Who’s really the Sabres’ No. 1 goalie?’

Sabres down Senators for fourth straight win

All five of Buffalo’s goals came from players burying close-range rebounds or skating hard through the slot. The Senators simply couldn’t contend with the Sabres’ determination to find the net in front of a sellout crowd of 18,690.’

Ellis gets bonus — first goal since March 2011

‘”I was pretty excited about it,” said Ellis. “Every time you get a chance to contribute from an offensive standpoint, it’s a nice little bonus. Our line prides itself on simple hockey. Straight lines. Getting the puck to hard areas of the ice. And we got rewarded.”‘

Tropp impresses in Sabres stint

‘“He’s really establishing himself as an NHL player right now,” winger Cody McCormick, Tropp’s linemate, said Friday prior to the Sabres’ 5-1 win over the Ottawa Senators inside the First Niagara Center. “I know they’re probably going to have to make decisions and that. I think he’s really given them something to think about the way he plays.”’

Enroth’s progress puts pressure on Sabres’ Miller to recover form in goal

‘The young Swedish puckstopper has been a revelation in Western New York this season, posting a 4-0-0 record (including last week’s 3-2 victory over the Senators) and a .952 save percentage heading into Friday’s game.’

Enroth, Roy lead Buffalo to 5-1 win over Ottawa

‘Enroth, still considered a rookie despite playing in 14 games last season, improved to 5-0 this season and 14-3-2 in his career. After taking over for ineffective starter Ryan Miller in the first period of a loss to Philadelphia earlier this month, Enroth has helped the Sabres get back on track.’

Buffalo 5, Ottawa 1

‘”There was a lot better job with the puck, we supported it well, we played a smart efficient game,” Sabres head coach Lindy Ruff said.’
