The Buffalo Sabres won five of 12 games in the month of January 2016 – perhaps not the most ideal record, but certainly better than the month of January 2015.
The month of January saw the Buffalo Sabres face 11 teams, six of which were Eastern Conference opponents – including four Atlantic Division rivals.
The Buffalo Sabres opened the month of January with three consecutive losses at the hands of Detroit, Florida and Chicago.
They found their feet on Sunday, January 10, defeating the Winnipeg Jets 4-2, then followed that up with a 3-2 win over the Wild a few days later.
