I agree, the Sabres need some HEART. They are playing like a like a team that feels they can relax. They Can't! If they are going to make the playoffs, and they won't if the keep playing the way they have been for the past two weeks, they have to go for the juggler every minute of every game. I not saying anything that they don't already know. What I am doing is challenging them to put their effort where their mouth is.
