Nice win tonight! Finally some goals.

 

Damn straight. Really needed that, and it warms my heart that it was against the stinking Canes.

Do the Canes have much of a following in Carolina? It seems that when the Sabres play them at their place the facility is filled with more Buffalo fans?

Only when they're winning Stanley Cups. And even then it's probably 20% Sabres fans.
