Buffalo Sabres DROP the Montréal Canadiens for a HUUUGE win in the standings

About this episode
The Buffalo Sabres had a massive game in the standings against the Canadiens, and they went into Montréal and grabbed two points. Jumping out to another hot start, featuring Jason Zucker, the kid line getting another goal, this time from Zach Benson, and a sixty minute effort from Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen got the job done. The win puts the Sabres within two points of Montréal for a top-three spot in the Atlantic Division. However, the win was another game where the Sabres got out to a multi goal lead, that they nearly blew. NEARLY. Once again, after a panicky second period, the Sabres locked it down in the third period, just long enough for Peyton Krebs to ice it with an empty netter. Sneaky Joe has a theory on why the Sabres keep letting teams back into games, and it starts with the Sabres' defensemen. Plus, a preview of Sabres vs. Islanders. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!IndeedNow, you can speed up your hiring process with a $75 Sponsored Job Credit.
