Hossa still leading in points, wow.

What do your lines look like? Stafford seems to be having some issues.

I dont fiddle with lines much outside of injuries so he is still on the third line. He struggled last year on the second line, much of the same this year on the third. Not that impressed with Drew Stafford.

I went to the IIHF World Hockey Championship Semi Finals in Halifax that pitted USA vs FINLAND. During the pregame warmup I was by the glass taking pictures and Selanne and Jussi Jokinen had given me a big thumbs up and smiled for the picture, when I went to the US end Drew Stafford fired a puck right at the glass in front of my face as I was waiting to take a picture. Never liked the guy since..... True Story.

2012-2013 Block 5 Update: 33-14-3, 4th in EC

An improved offense and better play from Ryan Miller has the Sabres making history. Ten It Is BUFFALO, NY - Just about a month ago a Daniel Briere goal stopped a possible ten game win streak as Buffalo lost to Philadelphia. After losing the next game to Boston the Sabres started all over and quickly rattled off four wins to finish off the fourth block of the season. In the fifth block the winning continued. The Sabres returned to the door step of ten straight wins after beating Minnesota, Phoenix, Boston, Montreal and Toronto. Then after a victory over the Colorado Avalanche the Sabres became the second team to win ten straight games this year. More impressive is this impressive run has seen Buffalo go 19-1-1 in their last 21 games. Despite those gaudy numbers the Montreal Canadiens and Pittsburgh Penguins are playing just as well. Montreal sits three points ahead of Buffalo with 72 points and Pittsburgh still leads the NHL with 74 points. St. Louis would end Buffalo's win streak at 10 as more bad news hit in the injury front. Defenseman Robyn Regehr will be out over a month with a seperated shoulder after suffering the injury against the Toronto Maple Leafs on January 11th. Nathan Gerbe is also out after a hip injury took him out of the game against Washington on January 18th. Gerbe is expected to be sidelined for three weeks. Dennis Persson, who was called up from AHL affiliate Rochester when Christian Ehrhoff was hurt, will be re-called to fill in for Regehr. Marcus Foligno returned from injury a bit early and will be able to play in Nathan Gerbe's spot.

Miller, Myers Help East To 2013 ASG Win COLUMBUS, OH - Defenseman Tyler Myers had one assist and goalie Ryan Miller stopped 20 of 22 shots as the Eastern Conference defeated the Western Conference 3-2 at the 2013 All-Star Game. Ryan Miller and Tyler Myers being selected to the All-Star Game doubles the number of selections the team had last year when just Derek Roy made it to the game. This marks the second straight victory for the Eastern Conference that at the moment holds the top three teams in the league in Pittsburgh, Montreal, and Buffalo.
