‘Vanek, who had gone seven games without scoring before Sunday’s goal in a 4-3 overtime loss to Atlanta, scored for the second time in three games, tipping a Dmitri Kalinin shot past Andrew Raycroft just over five minutes into the opening period. The goal was Vanek’s 36th on the season, but he wasn’t through. In the third, with the Sabres trailing 4-1, Vanek added his 37th as he blew a shot past Andrew Raycroft on the power play that cut the lead to two.’
