Season series -- This is the third of four meetings between the teams and the third in eight days. The Islanders have handed the Sabres 5-3 (Jan. 15 at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum) and 5-2 (Friday night at HSBC Arena) losses.

Team Scope:

Sabres -- Buffalo is doing everything it can to remain in the playoff race in the Eastern Conference, but the Isles haven't exactly been gracious in the first two meetings. Playing on home ice Friday night, the Sabres fell in a 4-0 hole against the Isles and was unable to complete a third-period rally. The loss kept them with 47 points, seven behind eighth-place Atlanta.

"I didn't like the start of the game, not at all," Buffalo coach Lindy Ruff said, as the Sabres trailed 2-0 and were outshot 10-3 before the game was 11 minutes old. "I didn't like our first shift. It wasn't good enough."

Islanders -- New York has been decimated by injuries this season, but it received some welcomed news on Thursday when alternate captain Kyle Okposo returned to the lineup. Along with defenseman Mark Streit, Okposo suffered a major shoulder injury before the Islanders played their first preseason game. Okposo picked up his first point of the season on Friday night.

"He's a big part of our team," teammate Zenon Konopka told Newsday. "To get a player like that back in the middle of the season is unbelievable."

Soooo, a Sabres win + ATL regulation loss tonight would make us 6 points back of 8th place, with two games in hand.

If not, then recommence the bitch-fest...

Salut

This game should be easy to realize from the Sabres's perspective. If they win, they get two points toward the playoffs. If they lose, several players get another painful round of female enhancements. Do not lose to the lowly Islanders again.

FFS the god damn bottom dweller the Sabres can't seem to figure out.

I'm predicting another painful game to watch.

It's a phrase that basically means, if you wanna see the Sabres at the top, turn the rankings.

It usually half empty anyways, but I have to think that part of the reason would be the NFL championship games today. Especially since the Jets are in it..
