Thank you, Lindy Ruff, for doing the right thing for both Ryan Miller and Drew Stafford -- particularly given your reluctance to do that same thing in the past for certain players who sorely needed it *coughTimConnollycough*

Thank you, Drew Stafford, for responding to Lindy's discipline in a productive manner -- unlike certain other players in the past *coughMaxAfinogenovcough*

Thank you, Patrick Lalime, for making it unnecessary for the Sabres to acquire Marty Biron -- for the time being at least.

Thank you, Sidney Crosby, for proving that, despite the fact that you are the possessor of the Ross, Hart, and Pearson trophies, as well as a Stanley cup, you have the potential to be as big a crybaby as Ryan Smyth.

Thank you, Jay McKee, for proving once again why you were not worth $4 million.

Most of all, thank you, Buffalo Sabres, for responding to Miller's benching the way Ruff hoped you would, and for proving to be the team we KNOW you are capable of being -- one that shows grit as well as finesse, and one that can play the defending Cup winners as tough as you play the Leafs.

When we look back at this regular season I think this is going to be the game that stands out, just like San Jose last year and the Tampa comebacks the year before.

I want to give a shout out to Marc-Andre Fluery, a big thank you for sucking your own weenie when we needed you too.

Public displays of affection like this are always welcome here in Buffalo from opposing goalies

Thank you power play for scoring possibly your first clutch goal ever.

All Timmy needed was a meeting. Right after he had a meeting with Lindy, he scored two goals and started driving to the net the way he needs to.

Besides that, your post is dead on.

Thank you, Staffy and Goose, for putting some sick moves on a Pens team to tie the game up.
