The line of Tim Connolly, Drew Stafford and Clarke MacArthur lead the way Friday afternoon as the Sabres snapped their 4 game winless streak. Miller was sharp as was the PK and Buffalo took 2 points out of Philadelphia for the 2nd time this season.
Next up for the Sabres are the Carolina Hurricanes. After picking up points in 5 consecutive games, the Canes are back to their slumping ways having lost all 3 of their games the week, including a loss to Atlanta at home Friday night. Things looked good for Carolina as they lead the Thrashers 4-1 after 2 periods. However, Atlanta`s5 goal 3rd period outburst sent the Canes packing towards loss 15 of the season. Buffalo won the season series last season against Carolina 2-1-1. The last meeting between the two teams was a 5-1 Sabres win in Carolina late last season. Despite the win that night, Buffalo was still eliminated from playoff contention.
Tim Connolly lead the offensive charge big time with 2 goals and 2 assists against the Flyers
