You won't believe how Buffalo is feeling about tonight

Alright, so I was grabbing a coffee this morning over on Elmwood, and let me tell ya, the buzz is somethin' else. Usually, before a game against the Boston Bruins, you hear a lot of folks grumbling about the old rivalries, maybe a little bit of that Buffalo anxiety kickin' in. But not today. Today, it’s all confidence, almost a quiet hum you can feel from South Buffalo right up to the Northtowns. People are talking about how the Sabres are finally playing *their* game, not getting pushed around. It feels different, you know? Like we've turned a corner from those years when everyone just watched with their shoulders slumped.

The big talk, of course, is about that OT win streak. Six out of ten in the last stretch, and we’re sitting pretty at the top of the Atlantic. Nobody's checked out, not with the Buffalo Sabres actually looking like a contender. My cousin, he runs the garage out on Hertel, he said his guys were practically planning the parade route this morning. He says it’s not just a feeling; it’s seeing how the younger guys like Tage Thompson are just taking over, no fear. It’s a good feeling, a solid feeling, like finally, after all these years, we got a team that knows how to win. Let's Go Buff-a-lo!

Let's Go Buff-a-lo — from the City of Good Neighbors, this is Peg.

You gotta hear Keith and the gang talk about this every morning — find 'em live at mornings.live.
