Not everyone can turn into a defensive stud like Jonathan Ericsson.

Stopped on the goal line

Nyquist!

Another powerplay goal for him

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Good. That was a really stupid and dangerous penalty for Buffalo to take.

Scored almost instantly so we stay on the powerplay.

Sabres not only have the worst PP%, they also lead the league in shorties against.

And the PK keeps dropping.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Holy chit. Buffalo takes another penalty. This is going to be a LONG 2-man advantage.

That's not optimal.

It's like a graveyard in this arena. You can hear a pin drop.

Detroit really knows how to help a team up when they're down.

 

[sherbert1421]

Saw that goal coming

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

TATAR TANGLE SAUCE!

 

[sherbert1421]

tatar makes up for the bad pass that lead to the sabres goal

You think?

Makes you realize just how bad the PP is though if you net it. They've only got 11 PP goals, and now 7 shorties allowed, so they're only a +4 in 120 attempts!

I let out an audible "Oh my God" on that one.

 

[sherbert1421]

Much needed win

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Wings win.

Hope the Sabres are able to turn things around.

Buffalo sports writer reading threads on the Hoop again.

Sabres’ slump continues against Detroit

In a piece of incredible Sabres numerology, Buffalo is just plus-4 in its 44 games with the man-advantage. The Sabres have an NHL-low 11 power-play goals and the Helm shortie was the seventh they have given up this year, snapping a tie with Toronto for the most in the league.
