Buffalo Sabres squander opportunity against Flyers as special teams falters

Related Topics: Buffalo Sabres, Tage Thompson

The Buffalo Sabres kicked off a six-game road trip on Wednesday night in Philadelphia against the Flyers. They had some momentum going into this game after winning their last two, but any momentum disappeared quickly in the first period.

In fact, it took only one minute for this game to be turned around and the Buffalo Sabres found themselves in a hole they couldn't dig themselves out of as they gave up three goals, including two power play goals, in 59 seconds.

The power play goals were really surprising as the Sabres had been one of the top teams in the league in penalty kills.
