Check out this weird goal by former Gopher and current Buffalo Sabre Thomas Vanek. Talk about a gift goal, the Penguins attempt to clear the puck out of the zone, the puck bounces off a stanchion and right on the stick of Vanek who shots the puck past Brent Johnson.

You got to love Rick Generett  and his call of the Buffalo Sabre's goals.

Sabres Playoff Hopes Are Quickly Fading

The wear and tear on Ryan Miller may finally be starting to show For as much of a high as fans and players of the Buffalo Sabres felt after Tuesday’s big win over Washington, the low far surpasses that. Buffalo went in to Saturday’s game against the Maple Leafs needing a win to stay at least tied with the Capitals for the eighth spot in the East, but for the second straight night...

Sabres blow it against the Leafs

Coming into the weekend, most Sabre fans wanted a split. A split against arguably the best team in the league and one of the worst was a fair request of our mighty Sabres. However, as of about 9:45 PM tonight, our worst fears have been realized: two games, zero points. It's a tough request to beat the Penguins. Crosby and Malkin are other-worldly players, and Jordan...

Pinch me, I'm dreaming

"Pinch me, I'm dreaming." Those are the words I texted to my mother (yes, I'm a mama's boy) after the Sabres trounced the Capitals 5-1 to take over possession of 8th place. I still feel like I'm dreaming. A little over a month ago, the Sabres were toast. Dead. The season was basically over. We were 15th in the Eastern Conference, and I pretty much assumed...

GARTH: Myers Out vs. Leafs

Its not known right now what th eexact injury is. What we do know is that Myers...

Mike Augello: …..And Tonight’s Goalie Is???; Leafs Vs. Sabres

A few months ago, Toronto fans may have looked ahead at the end of the schedule and thought that in one of the home-and-home matches against the Buffalo Sabres could potentially be the game they would clinch a postseason berth and end their painfully long playoff drought at the expense of their Northeast Division rival, but a disastrous 5-17-3 collapse has left them befuddled and...

Video- Weird Goal Of The Night

Sid owns the Sabres in big win

Sidney Crosby didn’t score a point in two games against the Islanders and was a -3; that’s all it took for some Penguins fans to start talking **** on the best player in the world. And that was after his face exploded from taking a puck to the nose. Well, Sid gave those geniuses a big suck it last night by picking up four points, including his 600th career point, while the Pens...

GARTH: QEW Crash

Its a fitting rainy day off for the Sabres today. Thunder and hail have ushered in April. The Sabres left two points on the table in Toronto that may come back to bite them in the arse later this week. My head still hurts as I analyze the mess in Toronto. The coach and players can tell you what went wrong. Lindy Ruff thanks, sabres.com Ryan Miller thanks, sabres.com...

GARTH: Outside Looking In

When nits all said and done, the Sabres will be seeing Ben Scrivens in their nightmares. What an embarrassment it is to lose to a team that had lost its last 11 home games. The Caos beat the Habs in the shootout and now lead Buffalo by two points in the Eastern standings (88-86). *** Tyler Ennis did he part to help hi steam to win in Toronto...

Sabres-Maple Leafs Preview

Although they've been among the league's hottest teams and have moved into playoff contention, the Buffalo Sabres still have very little margin for error.
