Lindy Loss Three

Exasperating and disappointing

Sabres 1 – Kings 3 (en)  In the first period Buffalo had a 5-on-3 for over a minute followed by a 5-on-4 for just under a minute, then the Sabres during a penalty were awarded a penalty shot, amassed a 13 SOG 5 bombardment, yet the period ended scoreless.

Another Buffalo barrage brought a 14 SOG 6 shelling where the only goal scored was a shorthanded breakaway courtesy of penalty killer Tuch providing the Sabres a 1-0 lead heading into the third period.

In the third period the Kings tuned the tables with a 12 SOG 6 volley of their own as their Captain scores a natural hat trick with the third goal an empty netter to seal the road victory for Los Angeles.

It is only game three but a very disappointing two game Global Series followed by a tight, low scoring home opener loss is enough to create some inkling of doubt in Buffalo’s head coach, but it is still early, right?
