Recap: Sabres big-timed in first preseason loss

In another frantic preseason matchup, the Buffalo Sabres travelled to Toronto to take on the division-rival Maple Leafs. High scoring affairs have become the hallmark of this squad that is averaging over three goals a game. The preseason being what it is, it’s nice to see Buffalo scoring at a better pace than last season.

Ultimately, the Sabres lost 5-3 to a Leafs team that put a lot more of their top players on the ice. While there is a litany of negatives from the game, there were certainly some positives to be taken from the game.
