    Just going to steal one of Rayzor's bits here...   

    Any Opponent's Keys to the Game Against the Sabres:

    1. 1st period forecheck! From the start, attack them relentlessly in their own zone. They're really young and if you pressure them, they'll turn it over. (Ray says this at least 4x/month for the Sabres' own keys.)

    2. Take away time and space from TNT and Skinner, but otherwise leave them alone. Don't hit them, ignore any whining from Skinner, and do nothing after the whistle. Lull them to sleep. But as soon as they get the puck on their stick, get on them quickly and activate your stick. They'll peel away from the pressure and disappear quietly from the stat sheet.

    3. Average goaltending! That's all you need. As long as your goaltending doesn't implode, you'll find yourself up 2-0 and then can trap the hell out of the remainder of the game and regain/conserve the energy you used in the aggressive forecheck of the 1st period.

    Give 20 minutes of good hockey from the start, and you've got the W.

    Sad but true

    Small sample but Okposo in front of the net had made the pp look a lot better the last couple of games.   Shame it took them 50 games before realizing that Tuch isn't a net front presence.  
     

    again I ask ... is Jeff skinner playing tonight ??  I'm at the point I'd like to see the Sabres give a sweetener for another team to take him off their hands.    If you end up with the 7th overall pick.  I'd trade that and skinner for the 25th pick.  I'm done with him
