Biron, getting the start in place of All-Star Dominik Hasek, stopped Ryan Johnson's slap shot. But the puck bounced to St. Louis, who lifted it over Biron for his ninth goal and a 2-0 lead. It took the Sabres just 54 seconds to tie it. With Tampa Bay's Pavel Kubina in the penalty box for hooking, Gilmour tallied his third goal of the season and first since December 23, tying it at 2-2. In the last 12 to 13 games, we have given ourselves a chance to win hockey games.
Buffalo is a pretty skilled team.
They have a pretty good club. I think our guys played well in front of me. They blocked a lot of shots. But on the ensuing penalty shot, he was stopped by Biron. We came back from a 2-0 Lightning lead.
