The Buffalo Sabres faced a much lighter week this past seven days, with just two games between Monday, November 2nd and Sunday, November 8th. The Buffalo Sabres went 1-1 last week and now prepare for a slightly busier week ahead, as they travel to Florida for a pair of games before hosting the San Jose Sharks to close out the week.
The Buffalo Sabres were off Monday, Tuesday AND Wednesday, preparing to host the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday. It’s not clear if it was the time off that did them in, or what, but the Sabres fell to the Lightning by a score of 4-1 in a game in which they allowed three ugly goals in the first period alone.
