Description: Buffalo Sabres fans couldn't have had a better night on 2005-06 Reunion Night, with a great ceremony before the game bringing back all the alumni of 20 years ago, and the team on the ice gave them a ton to cheer about afterwards. Tage Thompson was the catalyst for all of that, with a point on every one of the Sabres goals, including a hat-trick. Tage was on fire, scoring on almost every opportunity he had, setting up Alex Tuch for probably his nicest assist of the season, and icing the game with a massive empty netter to beat the Canadiens. With lots of Habs fans in attendance, it was an energized night between two teams that look like they're heading towards the playoffs, which is why the Sabres winning in regulation is so big.Plus, multi-point nights for Josh Doan and Noah Ostlund. What player in the league does Ostlund remind you of? Sneaky Joe goes with Dylan Larkin. And man... Colten Ellis. He's a wild man. Ellis gets another win, but gave fans a lot of anxiety along the way. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!IndeedNow, you can speed up your hiring process with a $75 Sponsored Job Credit. Just go to https://indeed.com/lockedonright now and support our show by saying you heard about Indeed on this podcast.
