O'Reilly (three points) and Eichel (four points) looked their best in the Sabres' first post-Christmas game.
The Sabres let David Krejci stand in front of the net and get three shots on goal before anyone moved. Chad Johnson looked like a backup on one goal. The powerplay didn't get any serious opportunities.
But all that was erased in the third period.
The Sabres scored three goals in a four minute span to take a 4-3 lead, and sealed the deal late with two empty netters to defeat Boston 6-3.
Ryan O'Reilly led the comeback effort, scoring off a nice play from Mike Weber (that's not something you type every day).
