Schwartz, Brodziak help Blues to victory over Sabres
'"I didn't feel it was dirty, it wasn't malicious," Gorges said.

Even Eichel couldn't solve Sabres scoring woes
'Don’t get me wrong, some players have stepped up. But if you told me that Matt Moulson would lead the team in scoring one month into the season, I would have said you were crazy. The 33-year-old forward has only six goals -- two less than he had all of last season.
