'"You know what? I don't have the answer for you. Comeback victories, great momentum boosts, moral boosts or whatever. Comeback victories, they're called comebacks because we've put us in a hole. It's not all the time going to bounce that way. We get one on the power play at the end; it's just not enough time. Maybe if I don't let in the fourth, it'll be 3-2. … There's a lot of … [Read more...] about Corey Perry powers Ducks past Sabres

Sabres stun Sharks, win in overtime
'"That's probably the worst we've played and gotten a win, but in saying that, we never gave up and it's a huge win for us," Sabres right wing Kyle Okposo said. "We've got to get two points. We've been saying it for a couple months, we've got to find ways to win games and I guess that's one of the ways. We stuck with it and our power play came up with a couple big goals for us … [Read more...] about Sabres stun Sharks, win in overtime
Pavel Zacha powers Devils past Sabres

Robin Lehner, Sabres shut out Senators
'"It's nice, it's always nice, but I have got to be honest, every two points we get is a really good feeling, every win we get," Lehner said. "We've been in some stretches where we haven't been consistent enough, some stretches where we haven't scored goals, some stretches where me and [Anders] Nilsson wish we came up with some more saves. But wins right now is a really good … [Read more...] about Robin Lehner, Sabres shut out Senators
Chris Kreider gives Rangers OT win against Sabres
'"I thought we did a lot of good things in this game. I thought this was a pretty good bounce-back game for us. … We paid attention to what made us play the way we did in (a 5-2 loss to the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday), and I thought we responded pretty well." -- Sabres defenseman Cody Franson' … [Read more...] about Chris Kreider gives Rangers OT win against Sabres
Max Pacioretty hat trick lifts Canadiens
'"We did have opportunities; it wasn't as if it was 19 chances to zero," Sabres coach Dan Bylsma said. "We had plenty of opportunities, but we played into their speed game. They played a fast game, and we handed them the puck, and they capitalized on a lot of the chances they had."' … [Read more...] about Max Pacioretty hat trick lifts Canadiens
Sabres look to carry momentum out of break
'"I think that the consistency in our game is starting to come back but in terms of showing up every night and playing a full 60, I mean, I thought we still played a good game in Dallas and we still ended up with zero points," Eichel said from the dressing room at Bell Centre on Monday. "You can make that argument that we had a couple goals that were called back and this and … [Read more...] about Sabres look to carry momentum out of break
Kari Lehtonen helps Stars hang on for win
'"Well, the puck goes through [Buffalo defenseman Zach] Bogosian and into the net," Sabres coach Dan Bylsma said. "The view, it's not super clear, I guess, in terms of definitively saying where it ends up. It hits on his pad, or it sits on the side of his pants. At least on the view, it's on the right side of the crossbar in our camera. I think the answer is they don't … [Read more...] about Kari Lehtonen helps Stars hang on for win
Jack Eichel propels Sabres past Predators
'"It's great to see the way we played," Eichel said. "We stuck with it for 60 minutes. We got down two goals on the road against a really good hockey team and were able to find a way to get it to overtime and win it. It says a lot about the resiliency of this team. It's nice to be a part of games like that."' … [Read more...] about Jack Eichel propels Sabres past Predators

Maple Leafs score four in row to defeat Sabres
'"Just the way we managed the game in the second period, I think the forwards need to do a better job of helping our defense get off the ice," Sabres forward Jack Eichel said. "It was just a couple funny bounces and they get the lead back. We came out and played pretty well. We even had some good spurts in the second period where we put some good pressure on them, but obviously … [Read more...] about Maple Leafs score four in row to defeat Sabres
Tyler Ennis sparks Sabres to win against Stars
'"I told myself if I came out here and shot the puck a lot I think I'd get one," Eichel said. "I think in the past few games I was just trying to [be] too cute and [get] opportunities that I can fire it and you're not going to score unless you shoot it. I get rewarded with an empty-netter, which is kind of nice, and a tap in on a great play from [Reinhart]."' … [Read more...] about Tyler Ennis sparks Sabres to win against Stars
Tyler Ennis nearly pulls off lacrosse move for Sabres
'"I wish that went in. I had some room. Pretty frustrated, but maybe one day one of those will go in," Ennis said. "I practice it all the time and it works. Sometimes in practices and warm-ups I'm always kind of flicking pucks around with my stick and having fun with it. I tried it another time against Florida and Luongo stopped it so, third time's the charm, hopefully."' … [Read more...] about Tyler Ennis nearly pulls off lacrosse move for Sabres
Hurricanes sweep season series with Sabres
'"I thought I saved it but it went off my glove and ended it up in the net," Nilsson said. "After that, they came pretty hard and pretty fast, and they got some momentum from the first goal and scored a few more pretty fast after that. So that's too bad. That kind of changed the game a little bit."' … [Read more...] about Hurricanes sweep season series with Sabres
