Listening to the first period, it seemed like the Minnesota goal horn was malfunctioning and making way too much noise. Nope: Not so. The Wild were simply beating down the Sabres, and it sounded like we were having some serious defensive zone issues. Then again, I’m horrible at picturing what’s going on when I’m listening to a radio broadcast. Jeanneret mesmerizes me. However, it wasn’t a complete wash: The Sabres held Minnesota to those three goals from the first period, and were able to build up a not-so-terrible showing.

It seems like Buffalo has been able to do well in the final period. As much as I love those last-minute comebacks, I’m a little worried about the team falling into that pattern prior to the season even starting. One can only go so long before the other teams focus on tightening up in the final twenty minutes, or before the energy starts to drain a little earlier than expected. I’d like to see the next two preseason games have a bit more of a level playing level throughout the entire game.

On an unrelated note, being sick is absolutely no walk in the park. Here’s to getting better in time for the final preseason game television broadcast!
