Bruins vs. Sabres 12/19/17 RECAP: Bruins blank Sabres 3-0!

Do you like saves and letting goaltenders show their stuff? Then this was the period for you!

Do you like scoring during the first period?...why the hell would you want any of that? That sounds dumb.

In fairness, both sides were trying to get a grip on what they wanted to be, one looking pretty sluggish due to playing the night before, and the other just trying to get something...anything to work right.

We left this period with no goals, only shots.

Now this is where things get interesting.

Midway through the period, Jake DeBrusk has himself a fantastic sequence where he hits a self pass perfectly to get around Jason Pominville, setting him up perfectly for a laser of a shot that claims the life of Lehner’s water bottle.
