It is never good for a team to immediately have to play catch-up, but during the opening two minutes of the game, that is just the position the Sabres found themselves in. Kraken defenseman Jamie Oleksiak opened up scoring with a nice wrist shot from the slot to give the home team a hasty 1-0 lead.
