Through two:
1. The Sabres are playing as physical as anybody. If we can bury, for now, the myth that the Sabres can't/won't/don't play a physical game, I for one would appreciate it.
2. For the second game in three, they are being "goalied." Expect more of this as more teams get used to the fact that the Sabres have a scoring machine in the form of Thompson and play their starters rather than backups.
3. The defense actually looks ok.
4. But they're losing.
