Loving and Hating Buffalo - Sabres Game Preview and Open Thread

You know the rules around here. Reproduce the previous game preview if it's a win as we look for a streak. So it's a bikini group shot and some Buffalo love after the Philly win.

Go Buffalo! Your wings are the ultimate game day food. You ability to support a football team despite multiple Super Bowl failures, a dump of a stadium and a dick of an owner is admirable. And... and... and. Right, we love Buffalo. But we hate the Sabres. Actually, of all our division rivals, we really don't hate the Sabres that much. We even still feel badly for you about the foot in the crease. Anyway, let's get it on with the bullet points:

• 7 PM start at the Bell Centre;
• Habs coming off a good solid win after sucking for a while, Sabres warming up with five wins in their last seven games including a 5-0 shutout of the Kings last night, and are only 4 points behind us in the standings;
• The teams have split their two games this season;
  
• While we sorta hate the Sabres, we really love Kate over at The Willful Caboose;
• Your hot Habs are Gui! with 3 points in his last 2 games, and Little Tits even came alive against the Flyers;
• Pleks is certainly not alive, still zombifying with no points in seven games;
• You can add Big Tits to the injured list. In practice yesterday, Little Tits joined the Danse à Dix line;
• Jaro will go again, with TFS(tm) possibly coming back tomorrow night;
• The Sabres offense has been coming alive lately, with Derek Roy having 6 points in his last 3 games, and Pominville 6 in 5;
• Maxim Afinogenov on the other hand is pointless in 4;
• We're not going back to a strip club if the streak is working (don't worry, that won't last), so it's post-game Torah study for all.

Have any reason to love or hate Buffalo? Completely indifferent? Let's hear it in the comments.
