The first period certainly had a lot to talk about. We’ll start with the bad. At the end of a power play, Matt Tennyson missed a pass to the point and Joonas Donskoi was stepping out of the box. He picked up the loose puck and beat Lehner with a nice shot under the bar to put the Sharks ahead.
While we’re on the topic of power play’s the Sabres officially went 0-4 in the opening period. However, Jack Eichel did score on the fourth chance with the man advantage, but it was called back.
