It's time to get back to the your regular scheduled program, the NHL season resumes tonight. Tonight is a must win game for the Sabres who are going to try to prove they are a playoff team. The Sabres will still be without Connolly and Afinogenov who are more seriously injured than we were first told. Connolly cannot injure his hip any more than it is but will need to play through pain while Max has a partially torn groin. Neither player will be in the lineup tonight but we should look for them to be back in the near future.
I won't be joining the game live this evening but I will be catching it on DVR later this evening. Feel free to have a conversation during the game so I can get evceryones thoughts on tonights contest.
