The Buffalo Sabres played the best team in the NHL very good for the second time in two weeks. They were the better team for most of the night against the Nashville Predators.
Jason Pominville got the Sabres going early scoring 43 seconds into the game. Nashville came back to tie a few minutes later. PK Subban scored on the man advantage to make it 1-1 three minutes in. Setting us up for a high scoring night it turned out to be.
Late in the first Austin Watson gave the Predators the lead cleaning up a rebound to give Nashville a 2-1 lead after the first.
