There was once a time when the Ottawa Senators and Buffalo Sabres had one of the more heated rivalries in the NHL.
Tonight, we saw a bit of a resurgence of that rivalry. Sure, both teams have been bad for a long time and they’re mostly just competing for a lottery spot at this point, but there was real bad blood between them tonight. There was drama. There was intrigue. There were hits. Injuries. Highlight-reel goals. A player lighting up his former team.
It was an entertaining game.
First Period
It was an eventful first period, featuring many Sens goals and just as many Sens injuries.
