God bless. May you find a way thru your pain. I lost my mom to cancer in 2008 so I know what you must be going thru at the moment. Thoughts and prayers to you and your family during this horrendously difficult time.

Turn out the lights, the party's over. Thanks for the run Sabres, it's been a lot of fun for a change.

Power is doing his best to get Girgs a marker and Girgs continues to say, "Not up to the task.'

One desperation period to go. Gotta leave it all out there for the next 20 minutes.

If the Blackhawks somehow find a way to win that in regulation and the Sabres don't rally to win this game, it will sting doubly.

Damn, Dahlin hit the post. Really needed that marker.

Looks like the air is coming out of the balloon. This frantic push to the finish with no margin for error is catching up with them.

Okay, just the one fluky goal. We're okay. Rest up, regroup, and get after them in the 2nd.

Power made a beautiful pass to Girgs but he couldn't get it to settle down. Missed opportunity there.

Put a magnet in the puck...

Lousy PP followed up by another fluky goal for the opposition. I'm tired of that movie.

Ugh...

Sometimes?

I mean they actually paid someone to design that crappy uni and then paid to have it made. Woof.

Agree. The energy has been good to start on a B2B.

Those Devils' sweaters are atrocious. It's literally a generic jersey.

Is that 4:08 PM or 4:08 'morning wood'?

Wow. Look at just how crucial that Dahlin stick save was to preserving the win.

Good call. The fact that it's Ottawa and the last Sabres home game makes sense.

If/when they are officially eliminated, Anderson should get the season finale to ride off a stellar career into the sunset, IMO.

The Red Wings are not going to cooperate and help out today.

They should also be saying , "The Canes took two Mitts to the face..."

I know he's caught a lot of grief around these parts but, much like Mitts, I like what he's shown down the stretch. Maybe that will continue once he settles into Meatbballs' system.

I wish this is the game I had witnessed when my younger son and I were in Raleigh back in November.

Credit to Greenway for two crucial clears in the last minute of play.
