November 2, 2011 The hated rivalry between the Sabres and Flyers renews itself tonight as the Sabres look to improve their record at home this year. The Flyers will be without the services of Danny Briere, but there still are plenty of reasons for Sabres fans to boo the Flyers at the First Niagara Center.

It wasn't even close. The Buffalo Sabres folded when it meant the most, losing Game Seven 5-2 and adding a 40th year of heartbreak for the fans. You might say this series actually ended Sunday when the Sabres gave up two, two goal leads in Game Six. It had to be hard to have any confidence that you could beat the Flyers after leaving it all on the ice Easter Sunday and still losing.
Last night's 4 point performance by Daniel Briere reminded Sabres fans just how much the team misses the former captain. Briere continues to be a symbol of everything that's wrong with the Tom Golisano era of the Buffalo Sabres, according to Buffalo News Columnist Bucky Gleason.
