‘”I thought we owed one to ourselves,” said Tuch, who had four assists to help the Sabres avoid a three-game losing streak. “We owed one to our coaching staff. They come in and work really hard for us each and every day. There might have been a disconnect and a couple issues here and there with how we were playing, what our game plan was and what our mentality was, but that doesn’t leave this room. That’s us and the coaching staff, it’s all 20 guys on the ice. It’s whoever’s not playing that day. It’s all eight coaches. It’s all trainers, equipment managers, it’s all of us together.’
