Isak Rosen scored twice for his first NHL multi-goal game, but the Utah Mammoth responded with five unanswered goals to defeat the Buffalo Sabres 5-2 at Delta Center on Wednesday.
Buffalo led 2-0 following Rosen’s second goal, scored 6:42 into the second period. Nick DeSimone, an East Amherst native, put Utah on the board with a slap shot from the point exactly four minutes later.
Utah tied the game on a goal from JJ Peterka 52 seconds into the third period, then quickly netted the game-winner on a shot from in tight by Lawson Crouse. Nick Schmaltz and Clayton Kellers added goals later in the period.
The Mammoth outshot the Sabres 14-3 in the third period and 37-19 overall.
Buffalo is now 0-3-0 in its last three games after earning at least a point in each of the previous seven contests (3-0-4).
The Sabres are in the midst of a stretch of four straight road games, which continues in Colorado on Thursday.
