The Boston Bruins took an early lead but then it was all Sabres as they cruised to a 4-1 victory in Buffalo.
The Buffalo Sabres entered the Christmas Break with a seven-game win streak and were looking to extend it against the Boston Bruins on Saturday night. This was a team that the Sabres had trouble with earlier in the season, as Boston won the first two but that was back in October.
Entering this game, the Bruins had lost their last four, so it felt like two teams heading in opposite directions.
