[i like sabres]

that game was one of the most bizarre spectacles that I have ever witnessed in sports, and I loved it. The final 3 minutes including OT were 3 of the most exhilerating minutes I have seen.

Someone should calculate the minutes of terrible board play by the Sabres that came in between those 20 second scoring exchanges. I hope game 2 doesn't have us getting stuck in the boards so much..
