‘They need to manage situations in games the way they did Saturday night. It was only the second time since Dec. 23 that Buffalo earned a point by losing in overtime or a shootout. The Sabres’ 38 wins are more than the Metropolitan Division’s third-place New York Islanders (37), but the latter is in a playoff spot because they have 16 loser points. The standings would look different if Buffalo was better than 11-11-6 in one-goal games this season.’
