First period is over. No score. Second period to begin shortly

Trivia on MSG: Which European-born player recorded the most points as a Ranger?
A.) A. Hedberg
B.) P. Nedved
C.) A. Kovalev
D.) T. Sandstrom
Arrrggh, Lundqvist is playing too darn well. Afinogenov, Briere, and other Sabres made some real nice shots on the 5 on 3 and 5 on 4, but Henrik blocked them ALL. AAAHHGG! The MSG fans all errupted with the "Henrik chant" --"HEN-RIK! HEN-RIK!" during the power plays.
YEEESSSSSS!!! Afinogenov SCORES!!!!!!!!!! 1-0 Sabres!!
OOOOHH! 2-0 Sabres!! Vanek scored!
Jagr responds with a goal...now 2-1.
Rangers come back! On that ever-famous play of Jagr to Straka, the score is now 2-1
Jagr is "tackled" by Adam Mair, but the ref made no call. The Garden fans sure were mad, and for good reason.
2nd period over
Haha...the announcer just said "Did you know that 60% of the people who are watching TV right now are also online?" Ha! Guess I'm not alone!
Answer to trivia question: A.) Anders Hedberg
Dang, I was gonna say Kovalev.
I'll get one of these right one of these days
Sabres win, 3-2!!
LOL...that's quite an odd expression on that guy's face
TFTP! Did anyone notice Detroit broke their 5 game losing streak tonight? But not before getting whipped 6-2 by my Predators this past Saturday night. It was a thing of beauty.
Penguins-Islanders tonight. Sid's back!
Today is Fleury's birthday. He's 28.
Islanders' captain Alexei Yashin is out for 2-4 after spraining his knee against the Caps.
**2-4 weeks
