Two games against two of the highest scoring teams in the league, not only do we out score them but we hold them to one goal total between the two games.

A shutout of Washington and a one goal performance last night against Chicago with Patrick Lalime in net looks quite nice.

Incase you are keeping track Lalime has started a grand total of 3 games so far and has appeared in 4. With 29 games played that puts him on pace to start roughly 8 games and appear in 10, which would put Ryam Miller at about 72-74 games in goal on the season not including the Olympics and playoffs.

Last night was huge for the Sabres because Patrick Lalime earned himself some playing time and bought Ryan Miller some much needed rest in the future. This guy can play when you give him the opportunity.
