personally as a Leafs fan I tip my cap to the Sabres. As great as it was to hold a record like that it is equally great to see such a deserving team take total control of the league. It's not Buffalo's fault that the league decided to make the shootout manditory. They are just playing the game that they love. So I hope they get number 11 and keep going for as long as possible. 82 games of course is out of the question, but i'm going to put money down on 13 victories.

Good for the Sabres to start the season the way they did. I wasn't trying to take anything away from them it is just different. It's the same as if a team breaks the total points for a season. It is easier to get 100 points in a season now so if the Sabres or any team breaks the Canadiens record of 132 points in one season it would be a great accomplishment but I don't think comparable because more points are available in each season now compared to before the Shootouts. Congrats to the Sabres on the Longest winning streak of the New NHL to start a season.
