I have just one question for you. Are you ready? READY FOR THIS THURSDAY NIGHT WHEN YOUR BUFFALO SABRES TAKE ON THE MINNESOTA WILD IN TONIGHTS HOCCCCKKKKKEEEYYYYY GAME. DA DA-DA DAAAAAAAAAAA IT'S 12 MEN TRAPPED IN A STEEL BOARDED ICE RINK WITH BLADES ATTACHED TO THEIR FEET AS THEY'LL GIVE IT THEIR ALL TO BECOME THE NEXT NHL CHAAMMMMMPPPPP *pauses for breath (coughs)* IIIIIOOOOONNNNNNN So, are you ready?? Your Buffalo Sabres will look to rebound from a rather nasty collapse against the Flyers on Tuesday night, a collapse that saw the Sabres relinquish a 3-0 lead with 3 minutes left in the 3rd. The demise, one facilitated by the Alamo, terrible penalties taken, and questionable OT play, is one Buffalo looks to put behind them and get back to the Mendoza line as a win against Minnesota tonight puts them at .500 The Wild meanwhile sit at the top of their named division at 4-2-1, and are coming off a 5-0 drubbing of the Boston Bruins last Tuesday night. The Wild are 3-0 at home, but 1-2-1 on the road. Nilsson to get the start as Lehner is still sick.
