Danny Heatly led the Sens to the victory scoring a goal and assist. The Sens were up 3 to 0 before Buffalo struck 3 straight times and tied it up with 6 and a half minutes left.

The Sens then struck, Mr Heatly went to work and scored, followed by Daniel Alfredsson 2 minutes later to hang on to get the win, in Buffalo 5 to 3.

The once hot Buffalo Sabres now have lost 5 straight and Ottawa has really owned them this year. We all know if Buffalo makes the playoffs the regular season matchups really dont mean anything.

Ryan Miller faced 43 shots and saved 42 of them. The Sabres scored a late goal in the third and won over the Islanders 2 to 1.

The Sabres lost two of their best players in the game in Tim Connolly and Derek Roy, but still fought through it and got the big win. Max Afinogenov scored the game winner with under 3 minutes left.

Mighty Max is starting to heat up and this is a great sign for Buffalo. Ryan Miller was unreal the whole game and he continues to be one of the best goalies in the game today.
