Vulgar Opinions: Sabres @ Panthers (2-28-13) Stars and Black Holes

Well that was a thing, that happened.

Stars:

1. Nathan Gerbe - Gerbe is an okay player when his job is to score.  When his job is to skate the puck from the d-zone to the o-zone and dump a low percentage shot on goal to get a faceoff…
2. Tyler Ennis - Right up there with Miller as the middle part of the season’s MVP.
3. Steve Ott - Not too shabby.

Unsung Hero:

• Christian Ehrhoff - Half man, half beast, all German.
• Tyler Myers – You have gone (?) games without being terrible!

Black Holes:

1. Drew Stafford - Do something Drew.  Do something.
2. Robyn Regehr - That first goal against, you need to win that battle.
3. Adam Pardy - Stop taking dumb penalties.

Unseen Goat:

• None.
