Pregame Notes

I've been to a pair of Sabres games this year and they lost both of them, 4-3. I'm planning to make my return on Wednesday against Philadelphia.

As for tonight's matchup against the Panthers, Ryan Miller will get the start in net. He put up 22 saves in a shutout performance against them last time.

With crisp memories of a 3-0 shutout a few games back, the Sabres will look to do it again to the Panthers tonight. This time, at the First Niagara Center.

Fans have quickly jumped on the Enroth bandwagon, saying that he should be the number one goaltender. Meanwhile, there is a Vezina-winning goalie right in front of them. However, it’s a good problem to have.

Florida has some issues on the back end that are not so good. Jose Theodore is listed as day-to-day, but rookie Jacob Markstrom has gone 2-2 with a 2.11 goals against this season.

This is the final game of the month for Buffalo, and they bring in a 6-3 record to start the season. The Sabres trail Toronto by one point for first place in the Northeast division and the Maple Leafs are hosting the Penguins tonight.

Thursday’s game against Columbus was the first time that Thomas Vanek earned three assists in one game. Vanek leads the Sabres in scoring with 14 points (7 G, 7 A).

Tonight’s game starts at 7:00pm EST and will air on MSG.



- Also, take a look at this game I played on NHL '12 for PS3 yesterday. Down 4-0 after the first period, I managed to come back and win, thanks to Gerbe's goal in overtime.



-I've started a new youtube channel where I will be posting Sabres videos. I am doing audio and video editing and plan to make Sabres highlight videos and tributes. The first one is just about done and will be released on Tuesday. You can subscribe or friend me if you'd like to.
