| Hockey Fight: Sabres Out For Revenge Against Bruins |
The biggest controversy of the young NHL season was sparked by a hit that Milan Lucic of the Bruins laid on Sabres goalie Ryan Miller when he strayed away from his net.Benoit Pouliot scored the deciding goal in the fifth round of the shootout, and the Bruins rallied from two different two-goal deficits for their 10th straight win, a 4-3 victory over Buffalo on Wednesday night.
It is the Bruins’ first 10-game winning streak since Dec. 12, 2008, to Jan. 1, 2009.
The Sabres didn’t go after Lucic when he steamrolled Miller — who sustained a concussion on the play and is still sidelined — but Gaustad and Lucic didn’t take long to square off, with Lucic landing several rights to Gaustad’s head and body.
I still to this day still say it was a collision (with Miller), but when you do something like that you always prepare to step up and fight for yourself,” Lucic said.The game between the two teams was scrappy to say the least, with the Sabres unable to secure the most meaningful revenge -- Buffalo would lose 4-3 in penalty shootouts.
