A night of firsts to remember for Mittelstadt, Nylander

‘Casey Mittelstadt and Alexander Nylander are the Sabres’ first-round draft choices the last two years and are expected to be mainstays on this club in the future. Each scored his first career goal before this game was 10 minutes old and they were the first of what the organization hopes will be many more.’

Sabres Notebook: Bolts coach sees better times ahead in Buffalo

‘”A lot of things worked against Buffalo but Phil kept them together. Instead of folding down the stretch, they dug their heels in and played teams tough, including us. As an organization, they’ve found out a lot about themselves, they’ve done it the right way and they’re set up to do some good things next year.”‘

The Wraparound: Lightning 7, Sabres 5

‘Anthony Cirelli’s second goal of the game, a deflection at 6:15 of the third period, got the Bolts even at 5-5. Tampa Bay took the lead 47 seconds later on Brayden Point’s 32nd goal of the season, a one-timed knuckleball that floated over the shoulder of Buffalo goalie Chad Johnson.’

Lightning take 2-point in Atlantic after 7-5 win over Sabres

‘Casey Mittelstadt and Alexander Nylander each got his first NHL goal for the last-place Sabres. The Elias Sports Bureau says it was first time two Buffalo players got their first goals in the same game since May 3, 1995, when Curtis Brown and Wayne Primeau accomplished the feat.’

Mittelstadt & Nylander score firsts in 7-5 loss to Lightning

‘Casey Mittelstadt gets his first career NHL goal on the powerplay. Scandella passed it to Mittelstadt near the faceoff circle. Mittelstadt turned and ripped a wrist shot into the net.’

Sabres’ Nylander nets his first NHL goal

‘Chris Taylor has been on him to play more around the net and that’s what the kid did, he headed to the net and expertly tipped in Guhle’s shot for his first NHL goal.’

From the Locker Room: Sabres-Lightning

‘”Based off the way we responded to Tampa’s constant challenges, we would’ve liked to come away with a win. Regardless, I liked the way the guys fought until the end in all aspects.”‘

Mittelstadt and Nylander score, but Sabres fall short against Tampa 7-5

‘For the Sabres, while there isn’t much left to play for in a lost season, took the playoff bound Lightning to the brink.’
