Buffalo Bests Toronto
Sabres 5 – Maple Leafs 3 Buffalo is now in third place in their division after beating Toronto at home last night in a game where Sabres wore their brawny black & red sweaters for the first time this season and (D) Samuelsson scored twice, (RW) Tuch scored shorthanded, and (G) Lyon once again posted another solid .900% save percentage.
The only negative was Sabres (C) Kozak sustained an upper body injury after only three shifts and will not play this afternoon, it will be interesting to see who gets the call up from Rochester.
Game two of Buffalo’s home-and-home series with Toronto begins at 5 pm today to accommodate Toronto’s two major league teams, hockey and baseball, both playing in downtown Toronto today.
Two games remain for Buffalo in October after today’s contest, home versus the Bluejackets on the 28th then on the road on the 30th to visit division rival Bruins.
