Scuffling Sabres continue their downward slide
‘Though the NHL’s single-season record of 37 consecutive regulation defeats on the road set by the 1974-75 Washington Capitals appears out of reach, the Sabres are within striking distance of their franchise record of 23 straight winless games on the road (15 losses and 8 ties in 1971-72).’

No joke: The Hoff is back
‘“Maybe I’ll throw a joke out to get the guys going. Try to get the confidence level back up again,” he said with a smile. “It’s been a tough few weeks for the guys that have been playing. I’ll just try to come in and bring some excitement, and maybe give them a little confidence. It’s been a while. Obviously I’m happy to be back. Hopefully we can get out of this hole tomorrow and get a win.”’
