The Buffalo Sabres let one get away Wednesday night, falling 2-1 to the Ottawa Senators at KeyBank Center.
Buffalo led one-nothing after two periods on a second-period goal from Peyton Krebs, with Zach Benson getting the assist. But Ottawa scored twice in the third. Shane Pinto tied it, and Michael Amadio scored the game-winner.
Ottawa goaltender Samuel Ersson was the game’s first star. The Senators outshot Buffalo thirty to twenty-four, and the Sabres were held to one goal on twenty-four shots. Neither team scored on the power play, each going oh-for-two.
Ottawa also dominated the faceoff circle, winning thirty-seven of fifty-three draws.
It snapped a three-game winning streak for the Sabres.
Buffalo is right back at it Friday night, hosting Columbus at seven Eastern, and then Vegas on Sunday afternoon.
