Another night without a win for the Buffalo Sabres. They lost in overtime in Chicago Thursday, 3-2 to the Blackhawks, who are near the bottom of the Western Conference.
Ryan Donato scored the winner in overtime. Frank Nazar had two goals, one on the power play, and Patrick Kane fired four shots. For Buffalo, Owen Power scored and the Sabres added a power-play goal. Jack Quinn had two assists.
The Sabres took twenty-three shots to Chicago’s twenty-five and went one-for-four on the power play. In overtime, Chicago got two shots on goal. Buffalo didn’t get one. Rasmus Dahlin had an assist, but he also took two minor penalties.
Buffalo earns a point and is eight-seven-and-four, but it has lost three straight, and it’s the first of six games on the road.
Next up, Saturday night at Dallas, seven p-m Central. The Stars sit in a Western wild-card spot, and they shut the Sabres out four to nothing in Buffalo on October eighth. Then it’s Philadelphia Tuesday.
