The Buffalo Sabres are looking pretty sharp as they start the 2009-2010 season.  As I write this Buffalo is about to start the third period, leading 5-1 over the Florida Panthers.  The impressive thing is, all five of the Sabres goals were scored during the first period.  I turned on the game and within a couple minutes Buffalo was scoring left and right.

Currently ranked second in the Northeast Division, with a 4-1-1 record, the Sabres have had one shutout versus Nashville and two high scoring games against Detroit and the Islanders.

I made it to the Atlanta Thrashers game last Friday night but I must have brought bad luck.  The Sabres played a good game but they ultimately lost 2-4.  Despite seeing the Sabres lose, we had pretty good seats and the nachos at the HSBC Arena were delicious.  For those that want to see a game, there are still home tickets available for October 30th vs. Toronto.  Hopefully I can scrape together enough cash during the next week to buy some and hopefully they’ll be 5-1-1 after tonight!
