It’s one of Matt Moulson’s favorite parts of the game – the shootout.
Three-on-three overtimes may be exciting for the fans and likely will decide more NHL games that end up tied after 60 minutes, but Moulson loves the shootout.
Wednesday night, his number was called and the forward put in what proved to be the winning shot as the Buffalo Sabres took a 2-1 decision against the Toronto Maple Leafs at First Niagara Center.
“I just try to score,” Moulson said with a laugh about his track record of shootout success. Moulson is 15 of 37 in shootout attempts for his career.
