We all knew things would get wild in Buffalo with the Sabres making their first postseason appearance since Barack Obama's first term, and they brought in the big guns for Game 2 against the Boston Bruins.
Did anyone order up Josh Allen downing a brewski for the boys?

Allen fits in nicely in Buffalo, which is just going wild right now. Part of me wants to say it's a shame that they've gone playoff-less as long as they have, but I feel like it takes 15 years of regular seasons ending in mid-April to make people behave like this:
