Tuesday’s New Jersey Coverage

New Jersey faces Buffalo on 3-game home slide (AP)
Preview: Devils vs Sabres 2.23.21 (NewJerseyDevils.com)

Sabres’ forward shuffle produces lots of chances, still not enough goals

‘The Sabres dominated the shots on goal count at 36-23 – and the Islanders only had five in the game’s first 34 minutes. The shots attempted were 59-48, also in Buffalo’s favor. Quite a departure from last week’s two losses to the Islanders at home. Same result.’

The Wraparound: Sabres sunk by late power-play goal, fall to 0-3 against Isles

‘The Sabres outshot the Islanders 36-23 in the game and held them to just five shots on goal over the first 34 minutes of play, but Semyon Varlamov made many key saves to keep the Islanders in range.’

Sabres defense stalwart Jake McCabe out for the season with major knee damage

‘Of bigger importance is the fact this was the final year of McCabe’s contract and he is heading into unrestricted free agency this summer. McCabe likely was looking at a decent raise from his current $2.85 million salary and a good market for his services on a multi-year contract. Given the severity of his injury, McCabe won’t be able to cash in this summer.’

Sabres generate more offense, still fall to Islanders for third time in week

‘The Sabres struggled offensively in two home losses to the Islanders last week, scoring just one goal. But Monday inside Nassau Coliseum, they consistently cracked the Islanders’ rigid structure, generating a slew of chances.’

Sabres’ Jake McCabe out for season

‘“I had tears two nights ago already,” Krueger said on a Zoom call late this afternoon from Nassau Coliseum. “It was pretty clear on the doctor’s first assessment we were dealing with a really serious setback. The confirmation just underlines the pain that we feel for the person, first and foremost, and then the player that we lost for the season.”‘

5 Takeaways: Islanders Overcome Slow Start in 3-2 Win Over Sabres (NewYorkIslanders.com)

Pageau lifts New York Islanders over Buffalo Sabres 3-2

‘Ullmark played well in the third, denying Brock Nelson and Adam Pelech on consecutive shots in the same sequence and stopping Pageau swooping in with just over nine minutes left.’

Sabres D McCabe to miss rest of season with knee injury

‘He can become an unrestricted free agent after this season.’

Islanders use special teams to defeat Sabres

‘Sam Reinhart converted on the Sabres third power play chance of the night to even the score at 2-2 part way through the third period. The forward’s goal came late in the man advantage while Lee was in the penalty box for intereference.’
