Gotta get in and Miller and the Sabres have owned the leafs so go with your #1. As much as Miller needs the rest and Enroth needs the minutes go with Miller. The leafs are looking for a reason to lay down so get out there and take it to them as hard and fast as you can. Blitzkrieg them muther #&@$ers ! GO SABRES !

His game should have been the Pens.  Miller starts the last 4.

Win dammit!  Win with all your might!

Well then you're hot brother!!! Let's get this win and keep hope alive. If the Sabres lose, I think it's bye-bye playoffs unless some teams falls out like Florida or Ottawa. Let's not worry about the other teams though, let's hope the Sabres do what they need to. Here's hoping the Sabres pretend they are camping tomorrow night and wipe their cracks with Leafs (I know the correct verbage is leaves, but this isn't English class)

Caps will not lose against Canadiens tonight, who have scored just one goal in three games against them this season. So this is a must win. Ottawa could lose against Flyers.

After last nights loss, I just realized that we could have only 4 games left.. After this run that seems anticlimax and wrong.

Lets go Buffalo!

We no longer control our playoff fate, and part of me fears that point we lost against Colorado will come back to haunt us....

Hopefully i am wrong.

Gotta take 2 from the Leaves and then settle down and prep for the final.  The Caps will lose again.  It's gonna happen they don't have that much will.

I still think the Panthers should be the target. They play the Red Wings tomorrow and the Caps the second to last game of the year. If the Sabres win out they have the tie breaker advantage.

If the Sabres make the playoffs it will be as Washington as the #3 seed and the Sabres as the #8.

It's amazing how deflating one loss can be against a top team. Have to run the table and that starts with a best down tonight.

He played under 4 minutes in the third last night.  FWIW.

Note:  HNIC will have a feature on Ennis tonight.  Not sure if it's pre-game or intermissions.

One thing about that hit, is you could see that Cooke really had no intention for it to be that bad, he looked sincerely sorry that it turned out that way, you could see him apologizing to Weber right after it happened

According to Cassie Campbell, Myers isn't in Toronto: he's in Buffalo having his foot checked and is a game time decision.

twitter.com/CassieCampbell

@DaveDavisHockey: On HNIC, @FriedgeHNIC just confirmed Myers in BUF & #Sabres "are still hopeful" he can play. Took shot off foot 7 mins into the 3rd period.
