The Buffalo Sabres have found some success as of late as they have taken five of six points in their last three games. They have gotten some great performances from players like Jason Zucker, Josh Doan, and Zach Benson.
However, their top players are Tage Thompson, Rasmus Dahlin, and Alex Tuch, and if the Sabres are going to get back to the playoffs, it will be with these three leading the way. Unfortunately, all three rank near the top of the league in a stat no player wants to find themselves leading.
To this point of the season, six players in the NHL have hit a post or crossbar on a shot four or more times.
