Buffalo Sabres slash Ducks!
The Sabres are back in the win column with a resounding 5-3 victory in Anaheim. Briere and Hecht led the Sabres with 2 goals apiece, Drury with the other. Stafford and Zubrus had 2 assists each.
The Sabres outshot the Ducks 40-26, Giguere was outstanding in keeping the score respectable. Pronger scored on the PP, Moen a SH marker, and Getzlaf unassisted.
The Sabres managed to contain Selanne who managed a team high 7 shots but most from the outside.
Ducks coach was criticised roundly for playing Brad May on the top line with Getzlaf and Selanne. His scoring game was left in Buffalo many years ago.
The Sabres look forward to taking over first place in the league this weekend, while the Ducks are mired in the basement with an unlikely team, the Red Wings.
