‘In many losses this season the Sabres faded in the third period, but on Friday, they had determination which led to very few errors. The persistence paid off as JJ Peterka led a 3-on-2 up ice. He dished off to Tage Thompson on the right wall and kept coming hard up the middle taking a defenseman with him. That gave Thompson room to find a streaking Jiri Kulich coming up the left wing side and he made no mistake scoring his second of the game and 11th of the season.’
