          Funny story: I was flicking through the league leaders, when I saw Mike Grabner and John Tavares at the top of the points (followed by TEnnis). I figured that if they led in points, the Islanders must be doing well...

          Last in their division, second worst in the NHL.

              Bing Bing Bing!! 9-Goal Explosions For Sabres
              The Buffalo Sabres scored a whopping 9 goals in their 9-2 win over the hapless Maple Leafs. Matt Moulson scored two and had two assists, defense partners Jamie McBain and Mike Weber had three assists apiece, and Drew Stafford had two goals. Kevin Porter and Luke Adam each chipped in a goal and assist.

              Hutchinson Shuts Down Sabres in 4-2 Win
              Bruins' goalie Matt Hutchinson made 36 saves in a big bad Boston win. David Krejci netted a goal and an assist for Boston, while Mikhail Grigorenko scored his first NHL goal in 2 years. Jamie McBain extended his point streak to six with a goal.

              Ehrhoff Has Rare Two-Goal Night in 7-2 Win
              Christian Ehrhoff, in a rare occurrence, scored twice as the Sabres beat the Lightning 7-2. Eddie Pasquale made 22 saves, while Tyler Ennis had two assists. Johan Larsson, Mike Weber, Evander Kane, Colton Sceviour and Kevin Porter scored Buffalo's other goals.

              Injury Hell right now: Hodgson out for 3 months with a concussion, Pysyk 'needs to be evaluated,' Grigorenko's out a week or so, and Kucherov is out for 2+ months.

              On the plus side, tied for first in Div.C with 55 points.
              Halfway through the season. I'll get some stats and stuff up tomorrow, then I'm away from my Xbox till Monday night. I'll get some article or something up during that time, I hope.

                    Mistake Edit: McBain actually has 21 goals and therefore 39 points. I made this before the final game before the All-Star break, where McBain scored two.

                        Defensemen are playing great, look at that +/-!! Almost all of them have up their scoring stats, some (see: McBain, Jamie) dramatically so (Weber also).
                        Corey Tropp will be gone if he doesn't improve his stats. Also, what about Ehrhoff?
                        Some great sniping this year, kudos once again to Kevin Porter for leading the team two years straight!!

                        Fun fa(c)t: Eddie Pasquale is the second fattest goalie in the NHL at 220 lbs, behind Anthony "Porky Pig" Stolarz of the Flyers.

                            I've started to add game scores in the title due to the realization that the title may be the only thing you read.

                                Emery Records First-Ever 1-Goal Shutout in 4-1 Win Over Florida

                                Florida—In the wackiest game in the NHL season to date, the visiting Buffalo Sabres beat the Florida Panthers 4-1—behind a 31-save SHUTOUT from Ray Emery. That's certainly weirder than the fact that no forward in Buffalo's top six at the beginning of the season scored, or a probable departure from Buffalo notched two. It's a wacky, wacky world.

                                Luke Adam and Corey Tropp each had a goal and an assist: Adam's 10th tally of the year, Tropp's first. Kevin Porter scored the eventual game-winner in the first period after Adam had scored, and Mark Pysyk scored a rare goal for the Sabres.

                                Now for the weird. Kris Versteeg scored the Panthers' lone goal, midway through the second period.

                                Yet Ray Emery was not on the ice at the time, nor was a ref waiting to call a delayed penalty—thus, the goal does not count as being allowed by Emery, "preserving" his shutout.

                                For some reason, Emery had left the ice: plain skated to the bench and sat down. Kris Versteeg grabbed a Tyler Ennis rebound, skated up ice, and promptly slid the puck into an open net from just beyond the red line.

                                Said Emery:
                                I can't really explain it, I can try to, but I won't be able. I guess maybe I thought the ref had his hand up for a delayed penalty.
                                Ennis had dumped the puck into Florida's zone. Evander Kane won the race to the puck, cycled around the net and passed back to Ennis whose shot was stopped by Ilya Bryzgalov. Versteeg grabbed the rebound, skated up, and scored.

                                From Emery:
                                I don't know why I skated to the bench: I guess I saw Kane get the puck and I figured, oh, he beat the icing, guess there's a delayed penalty; better skate to the bench then.
                                Yet no-one, least of all Emery himself, can explain why Emery didn't realize that if Versteeg had the puck, it could not have been a delayed penalty. That, and this game, will remain a mystery.
