Three things that will kill the Sabres chances at going to the cup (and most likely too).
1.) Size: There is no size on this team. Montreal has a bigger size advantage than them (which is rare). I'm surprised that only Toronto that I've seen have actually used the body against Buffalo.
2.) Goaltending: Very average, with Miller posting a 2.65 GAA and Biron a 3.34 GAA and an .884% Save Percentage. Buffalo does not have that great of a defence to stop teams that are pretty explosive and can score with more than one line.
3.) Scoring: Eventually, you'll see most of the players start to cool off down the stretch. Sure its great now, but when it comes to crunch time, and when the sixth and seventh team needs those points, how strong can Buffalo's third and forth line be accounted for.
