Sabres end Penguins streak. What to expect from NHL Trade Deadline.
A good positive thing to look on this miserable season will be ending the Penguins 15 game win streak. Before I get to the game I'd like to just complement Darcy Regier on two good decisions trading D-Man Jordan Leopold and Robyn Regher for draft picks. This is exactly what we need to do to change and that's probably whats going to happen right before the deadline. The Sabres are going to be sellers and with a amazing win against the Penguins where Jason Pominville had a very good game he might be on his way out of Buffalo as well. I expect 2 more moves for the Sabres as they are most likely giving up (Front Office that is) on the playoffs even though they are only 3 points out. I am still hoping that Ott can rally the team to make one final push for the playoffs because if you can man handle the Penguins with Kevin Porter scoring two of the four goals when he hasn't scored a goal all year and having Miller play good can show what this team is capable of. The game started great for the Sabres who came out swinging and after Jason Pomminville stole the puck Kevin Porter sniped a beauty to put the Sabres up 1 well that lead didn't last long as newly traded Winger Jerome Iginla put it past Miller to tie the game. The Sabres would then strike back with Cody Hodgson taking advantage of Vokoun who fell and couldn't recover as CoHo rapped around to score. Buffalo wouldn't look back with Ott and Porter scoring to seal up the game. So the Sabres get some media attention ending the streak to the much hatted rival Penguins but its not the streak that matters its how we man handled the best team in the East this shows what this team is capable of as I already said but it's true and its time all Sabres fans try to look at both sides. You don't honestly believe the Sabres are going to stop trying and fail so they can get the first overall pick do you? At the same time though you know its most likely they are not making the playoffs there just isn't enough time in most peoples eyes (Except for mine). Well the deadline is tomorrow and its going to be very interesting to see what the Sabres do and who is off to another team. My prediction is Pominville is traded for a first rd pick hey if we could manage to get a first for Paul Gaustad then why not Pommers?
