It was interesting seeing the difference that coaching makes in this game. Sabres throwing a lot of pucks in front of the net, and not a Buffalo soul to be seen in any dangerous areas. As the game went on, the only players crashing the net or playing the slot at all was the fourth line of Routsalinen, Hayden and Bjork. They were rewarded with no extra minutes.
I'm not sure if Don Granato is the 'guy' to turn things around in Buffalo.
