Steve Ott Tried To Win A Faceoff By Licking His Opponent

At the start of the third period, Buffalo's Steve Ott faced off opposite Jeff Halpern. Steve Ott licked Jeff Halpern, or at last came very close. Maybe there's a reason Ott is eighth in the league in faceoff win percentage.

Ott and Halpern were teammates in Dallas for a few years, so hopefully this was more of a "hey buddy" thing. Hey buddy! Here's my tongue! Why don't you wipe off your visor instead of waiting for the puck drop!

Halpern would win the faceoff. Maybe Ott was too busy blocking out the boos of Sabres fans.
