As the Detroit Red Wings prepare to face off against the Buffalo Sabres tonight (7:30 PM, FSD/MSG B/WXYT), kicking off a slate of back-to-back games against Buffalo tonight and heading to Dallas tomorrow, no news is good news, especially given that the Wings took part in a rare Sunday practice for season ticket-holders on Sunday.

Well, one has to wonder what the excuse for tonight’s performance is going to be after the Sabres were absolutely demolished by the Red Wings 5-0.

The dumb luck continues for the Sabres. Another road game. Another loss. Another injury to a key blueliner Robyn Regehr. Another blast to the face for Thomas Vanek, who sustained facial damage when he was blasted in the face with a puck during the Islanders loss.
