Sabres survive scare, beat Wild behind Reinhart’s shootout goal

‘Buffalo, now 26-20-6, blew a two-goal lead in the second period and allowed the tying goal with 1:37 remaining in regulation.’

Mike Harrington: Time for Sabres to turn the crease over to Linus Ullmark

‘But there’s no doubt after Tuesday’s game, even after he gave up four goals, that it’s time for the Sabres to give Linus Ullmark a run in the crease. He made 41 saves through regulation and overtime and two more in the shootout. It’s hard to ask for much more.’

Sabres’ power play scores twice after changes

‘Evan Rodridgues and Rasmus Dahlin each scored with the man advantage as the Sabres went 2 for 2 on the power play against Minnesota after converting just 3 of 33 opportunities over the previous 13 games. Minnesota entered the game with the fifth-best penalty kill in the NHL (83.8 percent).’

The Wraparound: Sabres 5, Wild 4, SO

‘But mixing and matching personnel did little to address his team’s poor defensive play.’

Goalie Linus Ullmark helps Sabres secure shootout win over Wild

‘Right now, having allowed 39 goals over the last nine contests, the Sabres are a mess defensively. So Ullmark can be forgiven for allowing four goals.’

Sabres notes: Marcus Foligno enjoying tenure with Wild

‘“That’s something I take pride in is to be physical,” Foligno said prior to Tuesday’s 5-4 shootout loss to the Sabres inside KeyBank Center. “I think winning battles and things like that. Kind of just now, when you get a little bit older, become a little bit of a leader in a sense of how you have to play and perform every night for guys that follow (me).”‘

Former Gopher Casey Mittelstadt says he’s happy he turned pro early

‘“He’s really worked on his defensive-zone awareness and really make the right reads, help his defense out down low,” Sabres coach Phil Housley said. “I think his game has really come, especially before the break and even in these games after the break, I really like where his game’s at.”’

Now a pro, Casey Mittelstadt still ‘the biggest Minnesota kid anyone will ever meet’

‘“He is harder on himself than anyone else,” Pominville said. “He’s definitely one of those guys that we know can help out offensively. He’s been put in good situations, so it’s only a matter of time for him to explode offensively and help us win more games.”’

Reinhart scores to give Sabres 5-4 shootout win over Wild

‘“We’ve got to learn to tighten it up, but I’ll give the guys credit, we found a way to win,” Housley said.’
