The Buffalo Sabres have been doing pretty well lately. They finally pulled out of a lengthy losing slump and managed to put together a pair of consecutive wins. Ultimately that semblance of a streak ended with a shootout loss on Tuesday night against the Detroit Red Wings, but overall — the team’s been solid.
One player who’s been doing well this season has been forward Ryan O’Reilly, who leads the Buffalo Sabres with 20 points in 25 games this season. O’Reilly’s eight goals are tied for most on the team with rookie Jack Eichel, and his 12 assists are second only to Rasmus Ristolainen’s 13 in that category.
