January 23, 1984

The Sabres win their 10th straight game on the road ? and overall ? 5-3 over the Bruins at Boston Garden. Buffalo had set a new NHL record for most consecutive wins away from home by beating the Blues in St. Louis two nights earlier for their ninth in a row. The Sabres held the record all by themselves for over 16 years until the Blues won 10 in a row on the road late in the 1999-2000 season. The New Jersey Devils later turned the trick as well. The 10-game overall winning streak still stands as the longest in Sabres' history.

Rookie Donald Audette scores with 45 seconds left in overtime as the Sabres defeat the Pittsburgh Penguins at the Igloo in Pittsburgh, 5-4. The French Gorilla's goal, his second in overtime during the 1991-92 season, caps a stirring comeback by the Sabres, who trailed at one point 4-1. Audette scored 31 goals his rookie season.
