Tyler Myers is my hero.

This guy-kid has been generating so much talk around Buffalo, the NHL, everywhere, that it is hard not to be like "whoa". He also backs it all up by being a kickass defenseman. Being a goal scoring defenseman makes him one of those double threat types also. He is also taller than Paul Gaustad. Now come on, how many people can say that? Good job redwood.

Some stats:

-6th straight win for Buffalo, which hasn't been done seen since Dec. 2007.
-48 saves for Miller tonight, a career high for him. Damn.
-10th straight win against the Maple Leafs.

Tim Kennedy also scored a goal, but that didn't stop him from looking sad. He just always looks about ready to cry. Cheer up dude!!

It was all fine and dandy until the 3rd period kind of started to fall apart. It was scary for awhile there that this might actually become a tied game and have to go to OT. At first, I was not worried about that in the slightest. I wasn't too worried really to start with, just because of our own record against Toronto and their overall record, but it's not too good to go into games thinking like that. Being overly cocky is bad, just BAD. It also freaks my father out, like some sort of hockey curse and he just shushes me the whole time. ha

Not too much fighting in this game, or the last for that matter. Just a lot of little things that drew a ton of penalties between both teams. I remember Gaustad being a fighting machine for a lot of the 08-09 season, but now it seems like he's mellowed out a bit. Which is ok, because Mair can still get riled up pretty easy, but we just need Kaleta back. After he gets back I'm not sure if he will want to take it easy or just hit stuff. Knowing him, he will probably knock somebody out his first game back. Ahhh Patty Kaleta, come back soon please.

Old video, but...well just watch:

He's been waiting to "hit something"...oh boy. He looks so happy saying it too. He's been out for awhile, so I'm sure the same thing is going through his head now. Look out fellow NHLer's. Yikes.

One more home game tomorrow then on the road for a longggg time, and a lot of late starts as well. Two more points are ours Buffalo! Game on!!
