I'm not anywhere close to saying the Sabres are the best team in the NHL but TSN.ca seems to think so.  It's nice to see the Sabres get so much attention in the early part of te season but the pessimist in me thinks otherwise.  I'll keep enjoying it while the Sabres play well and I'll let time dictate where they will end up.

Ilya Kovalchuk has a broken foot, out 3-5 weeks - Bird Watchers Anonymous
This couldn't have happened last week before he burned the Sabres? This is bad news for the Thrashers. They can not afford to lose Kovalchuk for this amount of time.
