‘“Let’s be real, we handed them three goals,” Buffalo coach Lindy Ruff said. “We’d been playing pretty tight, it started to slip, and, again, we get beat 1-on-1, we got a defenseman caught deep where our forward’s covering and gets on the wrong side of the puck on an easy, really an easy, coverage play. You’re not going to win a lot of games if you hand the opposition two or three breakaways or 2-on-1 plays.”’
