Plus-1 | Five-On-Five Play
It’s no secret that the Buffalo Sabres have struggled at even-strength this season. Prior to tonight’s contest, the blue-and-gold had gone six consecutive games without scoring more than one goal per-game at five-on-five.
Interestingly enough, the last time the Sabres accomplished that modest feat was in a 4-3 victory over these same New Jersey Devils prior to the team’s respective COVID-19 outbreaks.
