‘“Having a healthy back end for the first time this year is nice,” defenseman Cody Franson said. “Unfortunately we came up a point shy, but there’s a couple good things we can take away from it.”’

Sabres Notebook: Reunion with Tim Kennedy thwarted

‘Kennedy, the South Buffalo native who played for the Sabres from 2008 to 2010, was set to sign a minor-league contract with Rochester on Saturday, sources told The Buffalo News. Kennedy, however, needed to clear waivers to join the Americans. The Hurricanes, who hosted the Sabres on Saturday night, put in a claim on the 30-year-old.’

Stempniak, Aho score in so to help Canes beat Sabres

‘”We knew we were going to have to ramp up the game to scratch and claw to get a (third-period) goal,” Buffalo coach Dan Bylsma said. “I thought we did that, and we got a couple of chances to score. We finally get one with a big goal by Kane there on the backdoor tip-in.”‘

Stempniak, Aho lift Hurricanes past Sabres

‘Evander Kane’s goal with 2:37 left in regulation prevented a shutout and extended the game. His redirection with a tip resulted in his fifth goal this month, with assists going to Jake McCabe and Marcus Foligno.’

Sabres Fall to Canes 2-1 in Shootout

‘Lee Stempniak and Sebastian Aho both converted their shootout chances while the Sabres went 0 for 2 on chances by Sam Reinhart and Jack Eichel.’

From The Locker Room: Sabres-Hurricanes

‘”We were able to get our feet moving and do some good things in the 3rd, but at the end of the day, we’re pushing for playoffs here. We’re pushing for teams ahead of us. That team’s the next team ahead of us, back by a point. We need to find a way to get two points.”‘

Sabres send back a defenseman

‘As the Sabres get healthier, more guys are being sent down. Taylor Fedun has been assigned to Rochester. Fedun played eight games in Buffalo picking up four assists.’
