A hair-raising series

Well, the Sabres just won. And it was closer than we would have liked. Even Autumn thought it was hair-raising.

The Sabres are on to the conference final for the second year in a row. Last year at this time, the Sabres had just upset the heavily favored Ottawa Senators, in overtime, short-handed. Jason Pominville cemented his stature as a player by scoring the goal. the Sabres had some injuries by that time, and they would get some more, eventually going 10 deep on defense and losing in seven games to the eventual Stanley Cup champions. But that series. Wow. Worth a cheer.


Anyway, here we are. The Sabres are now the favorites. People know who Jason Pominville is. This could be the kind of series that will further the Sabres playoff lore. One can only hope. Anyway, maybe if it's good enough, it'll get her watching (note the game on the TV)

Like Autumn, I tuned into the game while doing other things, too. Go Sabes!
