SABRES WIN!!

1st Period The Sabres score quickly, only 9 seconds into the game to take a 1-0 lead. The Senators have come back though and even though score after the first period remains 1-0, look for the Senators to score soon because they continue to dominate play.. Shots on goal favor the Senators 9-5 after one period of play.
2nd Period The Sabres play their best 15 minutes of the series in the first 15 minutes of the 2nd period. They scored their 2nd goal on a 5-3 powerplay opportunity and then minutes later score a great goal to go up 3-0. Then the senators get a goal with 5 minutes left to play in the period. With the crowd awakened the Senators turn on another gear and score again within two minutes. The game momentum has really swung in the Senators favor as the crowd is deafening and the Sabres had to scramble the last 3 minutes to try and stop the Senators from scoring before the intermission. A huge period is ahead and the game looks to be turning in the Senators favor despite Buffalo's lead. Please oh Please wake up Buffalo and win this game.... Let's Go Buffalo!
The third period was one that left many Sabres fans like myself without any fingernails left. Ottawa had two powerplays in a row in the third and Buffalo kept them scoreless in the third period. Miller made some huge saves throughout the game and this win belongs to him because Ottawa had plenty of chances to tie this game. Now the series goes back to Buffalo for game 5 with the Senators now leading the series 3-1.
