Give the Buffalo Sabres this much: It's rarely dull. Who would've guessed that if they'd put together their first four-game winning streak in two years, it would be the No. 2 or No. 3 discussion topic?

Lance Lysowski and Mike Harrington discuss all that, of course, and they briefly look ahead to the Sabres' shot at a five-game winning streak Saturday in Nashville before the NHL breaks for the 4 Nations Face-Off.

But the topics du jour, naturally, are the fight that wasn't and the fight that was. Lance and Mike break down the bizarre no-punches-thrown episode Saturday between the Sabres and Devils; the team meeting that followed; and the, uh, surprising lineup and game-opening fight between Buffalo's Dennis Gilbert and Columbus' Mathieu Olivier on Tuesday.
