The Buffalo Sabres play the Boston Bruins at First Niagra Center, ha, in Buffalo this evening at 7pm.
The Sabres played the Bruins 11 days ago in Boston. Typically, this would not be a big-deal since both teams are in the same division. On November 12th however, Bruins brusing forward Milan Lucic ran into Buffalo and All- American goalie from Michigan State Ryan Miller. Miller got a concussion from the run-in and his teammates did almost nothing in response, according to Hockeys unwritten rules. His teammates did knock Lucic into the boards after the play so this point has been over-blown by the Boston media. Never the less this game has the potential to be penalty filled and violent. We will see. Alot of these grudge matches hyped up the local media do not meet expectations.
The two teams are tied with 24 points each. The winner of this game will be one win up on the other no matter who wins the physical battle.
WEEI is reporting that Tim Thomas is not playing tonight. Tuukka Rask will get the start. The Bruins win 4-2 with an empty net goal.
