Minus-1: Special Teams Are Still Atrocious
Any game where a team let’s up two shorthanded goals (let alone on the same power-play) is a bad outing on special teams. While shorthanded goals-against haven’t been a recurrent problem for the Buffalo Sabres, their inability to score on the power-play has. Tonight, they were blanked yet again, going 0-for-4.
As we approach the end of November, the Sabres have one goal in their 31 power-play attempts.
