Right in front of the damn net.
It's a beautiful thing to see someone standing in front of the net again....Not only on the powerplay, but even in 5 on 5 situations. If the Sabres are controlling the zone, Drury puts himself right in front of the net, and the Sabres have been capitalizing because of that simple fact for the last 4 games.
He's not the biggest guy or the toughest guy...But he's been creating havoc in front of the opposing net, taking a beating for the team, and he's starting to score more goals because of it.
This guy has been playing hard all year. You've got to give it to him. And to see him in that crease cam above the net everytime the Sabres score a powerplay goal is a luxury we need to all take notice of. It's been awhile since someone has done that job as well as he's been doing, and actually kept doing it.
The playoffs seem like reality with that going on every game.
