Minus - 1 | Two Shots
The Sabres went into the first intermission down by just one goal, but more importantly, they only managed to get two shots on goal in the first period. Two shots... in twenty minutes of play. Whether your team is on an 11-game losing streak or not, that’s downright unacceptable but in this case, it’s a microcosm of the many issues currently facing this team.
