Making sense of the Buffalo Sabres' slow start: Can they get on track?

Source: Sportsnet

‘The Skinner-Thompson-Tuch line has a 39.6 XGF% in 43:25 of ice time, scoring once at 5-on-5. Coach Don Granato recently separated them in an effort to create more balance. It has worked to a degree; Thompson, Cozens and Jordan Greenway have out-chanced opponents 20-10 at 5-on-5. Of the seven forward combinations that have played at least 20 minutes for the Sabres, theirs is the only one with a positive XGF% (80.2).’
