Sabres! Pt. II


Lookit all those pissed-off rich dudes back there as Roy blows up Toskala.

Sabres win again! 10-2-2 in their last 14. Kotalik scores a couple. Beauty.

TORONTO (AP) - Ales Kotalik scored two goals to help the Buffalo Sabres win for the 10th time in 14 games by beating the Toronto Maple Leafs 5-1 Thursday night.

Brian Campbell, Jaroslav Spacek and Derek Roy also scored for the Sabres, who are on a 10-2-2 run and moved into a tie with the New York Rangers for sixth place in the East.

Elsewhere, Richard Zednik's neck is a medical miracle...

SUNRISE, Fla. - Richard Zednik felt a stabbing pain in his neck and knew he had to get to the bench - fast.

Once there, the Florida Panthers right-winger thought of his four-year-old daughter, Ella. "I remember thinking, 'Am I going to see her grow up?"' Zednik said.

The ghastly accident happened Feb. 10 in Buffalo. Teammate Olli Jokinen was upended and his skate swung up, cutting Zednik's neck. His carotid artery was sliced but not completely severed, and the blade missed his jugular vein.

"I felt like somebody stabbed me," Zednik said Thursday at his first news conference since the injury. "I knew exactly what happened and I knew exactly what I had to do. ... When I got to the bench, I knew it was an artery, the way the blood was going. I don't want to think about it, but I was in pretty bad shape."
