'Frequently trading odd-man rushes with Buffalo, the Thrashers managed to construct three separate leads, only to be pushed by the visiting Sabres beyond regulation time in earning their seventh consecutive victory at Philips Arena, thanks in large part to their overpowering success with the man-advantage. Unable to stop Atlanta's power play, the Sabres fell for only the third time this season in overtime but still satisfied to return home with six out of eight possible points in hostile rinks.'
