We take a detour from hockey talk to break down the seismic news of Sean McDermott's firing from the Bills. We touch on that news before digging in to the latest with the Sabres as they continue their push to end the playoff drought with a few impressive showings as they head out on the road. We also talk about how rejuvenating the Olympic break may be for the players who are dealing with injuries like Josh Norris and Michael Kesselring.
