The evidence says one thing but Sabres insist they haven’t quit on Housley

‘The Sabres were complete no-shows from the first shift Saturday night, with only goaltender Carter Hutton offering any resistance.’

Sabres Notebook: Borgen stunned by St. Cloud State’s second straight NCAA shocker

‘”We expect to win those games when you’re the No. 1 team but it’s an NCAA game and you know the other team will play hard,” Borgen, a three-year player at St. Cloud, said Saturday in Nassau Coliseum prior to the Sabres’ game against the New York Islanders. “Their goalie played a super game and we just couldn’t find a way to get the puck in the net. It stinks because it’s just one game but that’s how it goes.”‘

The Wraparound: Islanders 5, Sabres 1

‘A roaring, chanting sellout crowd of 13,917 created an intense atmosphere in support of its team in Buffalo’s first game in the building in nearly four years. Anthony Beauvillier scored two goals and former Sabres goalie Robin Lehner notched his 24th win while coming within 6 1/2 minutes of a shutout to lead the way for the Islanders. The crowd stood and roared for the entire final minute to celebrate the playoff berth.’

Islanders clinch playoff spot with 5-1 victory over Sabres

‘“This game was about battles. They are a bigger team. That’s why they are in the playoffs,” Sabres coach Phil Housley said. “We spent way too much time in the defensive zone and we didn’t execute very well. They won way more puck battles than we did.”’

Sabres get dominated by Lehner and the Islanders, 5-1

‘The lone bright spot was for Buffalo was winger Victor Olofsson, who notched his first career NHL goal on a late power play to ruin the shutout bid for former Sabre Robin Lehner. Eichel was the only other Sabre to register a point, making the pass for Olofsson’s goal.’

The Sabres quit on another game

‘You know what? I’m going to stop there. There’s no point going over every goal and telling this team has quit. You watch the games, you can decide for yourself.’

From the Locker Room: Sabres-Islanders

‘”I feel like they came out really strong, but I feel like we worked our way back in the first period a little bit. Then, obviously, it didn’t go the way we wanted, so we just got to get right back at it tomorrow.”‘

Olofsson scores first NHL goal as Sabres fall to Islanders 5-1

‘The rest of the game? Not pretty.’
