Pittsburgh Penguins (47-24-6) @ Buffalo Sabres (38-29-10)
7:30 pm/et
TV: ROOT, MSG-B
First Niagara Center - Buffalo, NY
We're not 100% sure of this fact, but the Buffalo Sabres have won approximately 2 million games in-a-row. They're currently in eighth spot in the East. The Pens beating them in regulation today would really help the Washington Capitals.
Season Series: 1-2-0
Last Meeting That Counted: February 19, 2012. Penguins lost 6-2.
What we said in our recap:
This is one of those games were you develop an unhealthy hatred of the Buffalo Sabres. From the minute the puck dropped, the Sabres and their fans were trolling.

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.

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."
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...

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...

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.

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...

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).
