‘Buffalo is now 7-2-1 at home this season, on pace for its best mark since 1982-83, and 9-0-2 when scoring first. The Sabres will wake up on Thanksgiving with a 14-6-2 record after they didn’t win their 14th game until Jan. 25 last season. Phil Housley’s players found themselves in an unfamiliar position this time, though. After three third-period comebacks in their previous four games, the Sabres had to hold onto a four-goal lead.’
