Need to Know:MNF: New Orleans 34. Atlanta 14 - Running backs? Who needs running backs? Deuce McAllister and Reggie Bush were both unavailable thanks to injury but the Saints rolled over the hapless Falcons anyway. Drew Brees threw for 328 yards and Aaron Stecker rushed for 100.
NHL: Boston 4. Buffalo 1 - At one point in the second period the Sabres were outshooting the Bruins by a factor of 3 - 24 to 8. Meanwhile. Boston had outscored Buffalo by the same factor. 3 to 1. That statistic sums up the night for the Buffaslugs who put 45 shots on net and still lost by three goals.
Meanwhile...• Prep Hockey: Benilde-St. Margaret's 8. Totino-Grace 3
3. Brett Patterson - F. Benilde-St. Margaret's Boys HockeyPatterson had a goal and three assists as the Red Knights breezed past Totino-Grace. The sophomore had only one point in BSM's first four games but exploded for four more against T-G. Benilde moves to 4-1 on the year with the lone loss coming to top-five team Hill-Murray.2. Aaron Stecker - RB. New Orleans SaintsComing into the Monday Night game against Atlanta. Stecker had been given very little chance to show off. The Saints third-stringer had 59 carries on the year for a total of 200 yards not exactly gaudy statistics. But with both New Orleans starters out with injuries the Western Illinois product came through with 20 carries for 100 yards as well as three catches. Not a bad night for a guy mostly ignored this season.1. Alex Auld - G. Boston BruinsIf you're saying to yourself. "I thought Alex Auld played for Phoenix," up until last Thursday you were right. Auld is in his first week playing for the black and gold and after two games has saved 69 of 71 shots he's seen. On Monday he turned aside 44 shots in a 4-1 win over Buffalo with several of those saves coming in spectacular fashion. Talk about a good first impression.
