Sabres vs. Canucks recap: Ristolainen scores game-winner in final 20 seconds

The Sabres top defenseman scored twice off lasers from the point, leading Buffalo to victory over its empansion brothers.

Rasmus Ristolainen was the man of the afternoon, scoring two goals, including the game winner, in the Sabres' 3-2 victory against Vancouver. His game-winner was scored with only 16 seconds left in the third period, a wonderful shot that snuck into the left side of the net. This is the first two-goal game of his young career.

The final goal was created by the brilliant play of Tyler Ennis, who deked his way past multiple Canucks to enter the offensive zone.
