Observations: Another bad showing by a goalie derails Sabres’ progress

‘Tokarski played well when he was called on in relief, stopping 24 of 25 shots to improve his save percentage to .904. It was too late, though. The Sabres were trailing by three goals after 20 minutes, despite limiting Boston to only one high danger scoring chance in the first period, according to NaturalStatTrick.com.’

Mike Harrington: As his return to Sabres nears, Casey Mittelstadt gives lots of thanks

‘”I have a great relationship with Jack. He’s been great to me,” Mittelstadt said. “Especially ever since I got sent to ‘Roch’ (in 2019-20), he was always helping me so much with my game and certain situations, more than anything a lot of little plays that have made a big difference in my game. So, for me, it’s hard to see Jack go.”‘

Sabres melt down early, fall to Bruins; Aaron Dell yanked after one period

‘The Sabres, if you’re keeping track, have lost four straight games, allowing a 22 goals during the skid. In each game, they’ve melted down for a short period, a disturbing trend they can’t buck.’

Sabres notes: Early-season upper-body injury difficult for Casey Mittelstadt

‘“We haven’t really put an exact date on it,” Mittelstadt said on a Zoom call of his return. “I think it’s more so how I feel, especially when we get into the contact and things of that nature. But it’s been getting a lot better, especially the last week I’d say it’s improved a lot. So, obviously, yeah, the second I think I might play I’m gonna be in there.”‘

Bruins score 4 goals in 1st period, beat Sabres 5-1

‘“This little stretch is exposing us to things that we need to target and become better at,” coach Don Granato said. “We will become better at it going through it.”’

This feels like the Sabres everyone expected

‘Was this going to be a surprise, Cinderella-type season for Buffalo? It may have been tempting to believe that, but the Sabres’ more recent span of games – they’ve gone 2-8-1 in their past 10 contests – has made their reality stark, and not very optimistic in the short term. And it isn’t just that they’re losing, it’s how Buffalo is losing that makes things appear so bleak at the moment.’

Boston dominates Sabres in lopsided win

‘Buffalo outshot the Bruins 14-7 in the second period, but failed to cut into their three-goal deficit. Dustin Tokarski replaced Dell in goal to start the period and did not allow any goals on seven shots on goal.’

Opinion: Three Observations: Sabres rough 1st period leads to loss over Bruins

‘On Wednesday night at the KeyBank Center, the offense didn’t even show up, and the Sabres still couldn’t get the goaltending they needed.’

Sabres suffer 4th straight loss, fall to Bruins 5-1

‘But just like we’ve seen in games past, the Sabres gave up multiple goals in a short period of time. Tonight was two Bruins goals in a span of 51 seconds for their first deficit of the game. The Bruins scored two more times before the 1st period ended to take a commanding 4-1 lead after 20 minutes of play. The Bruins added a power play goal in the 3rd period to seal the win thanks to a five-minute boarding misconduct penalty by the Sabres.’
