Gameday - Sabres at Islanders

Oct 13, 2008 NHL

The Buffalo Sabres’ second game is an afternoon tilt at the New York Islanders, one which I will have to catch up on via PVR.  Thanks, work.  The Sabres are coming off an exciting opening win at home against the Canadiens, where they did so much right I’m almost afraid to talk about for fear of the jinx.  The only concern coming out of the game (other than Connolly being injured AGAIN) is the power play, but you can’t get too worked up after one game against a very good team.

The Islanders come in 1-1, with their last game a win against the St. Louis Blues 5 to 2.  DiPietro didn’t play in either game with knee swelling.  He’s had knee and hip surgery in the past 6 months, so his durability may be coming into question, what with that 15 year contract.  2pm start time.

Edit:  Lalime VS MacDonald is your goaltender matchup.
