Special teams will be a key factor in tonight’s game. The Sabres power play has struggled this season but have scored a couple of power play goals in recent games. With the power play starting to click, the Oilers might be the perfect team to play against. Edmonton is in the bottom half of the league in both the power play and penalty kill.

The Oilers have already had 91 man-games lost to injury and they come to town tonight without Ales Hemsky, Sheldon Souray, Robert Nilsson and Shawn Horcoff

Why is it always special teams that will be a factor? Why can't they say something like "The five on five situations will be a key factor in tonights matchup", This statement would be better for Sabres fans :)

Because they will be. If your team can't score on the man advantage, and can't kill off penalties, it's just a perfect equation for a loss.

He accidentally knocked somebody from behind head first into the boards.

It wasn't malicious, and he even stayed with the guy to make sure he was okay.
