The Buffalo Sabres could use some reinforcements, but these might not be the ones they're looking for.

Two fans dressed in jerseys, helmets, and towels were spotted right next to the Buffalo bench at the Bell Centre in Montreal on Wednesday night.

One of the "players" enjoyed an adult beverage while waiting for his next shift.

While we admire their commitment, it could be a while before they see game action.
