These Buffalo Sabres aren't just a feel-good story any longer. They aren't just a team lacking playoff experience. They certainly aren't just happy to be here.
They're still standing. They're moving on. They've won a playoff series for the first time in 19 years.
And they did it in style. Opposed by some road vitriol in Boston, the Sabres never flinched. They scored early, withstood a second period goal, and pulled away late for a 4-1 win in Game 6 on Friday night, knocking out the Bruins and heading forward into the Eastern Conference semifinal.
