Beating the Toronto Maple Leafs
Can you rank anything else at #1? The Sabres threw a dagger into the Leafs plans to win the Atlantic Division not once, but TWICE in March.
Want more fun? The Leafs put up little resistance both in the March 2nd meeting and at the Heritage Classic. In the March 2nd game, the Sabres made quick work of their division rival, throttling them in a 5-1 win.
The Leafs provided a little more resistance last Sunday at the Heritage Classic, jumping out to a 2-1 lead. Then the Sabres scored four unanswered goals and sealed the deal, outscoring the Leafs 10-3 in two games.
While it’s always great to get a win, especially when you’re a trying team like the Sabres, defeating the Maple Leafs makes the ordeal even more satisfying. The Sabres have one more opportunity to beat Toronto, and that opportunity will come on April 12th.
