For the first time since March of 2016, the Carolina Hurricanes have lost a game to the Buffalo Sabres.
The Canes put together an entirely lackluster performance Tuesday night in Buffalo, falling 4-2 to a Sabres team that has been playing good hockey as of late but still shouldn’t be taking it to the Hurricanes.
Carolina came out of the gate strong and played a good first period, taking a 1-0 lead to the first intermission thanks to a drought-busting tally from Jesper Fast. But the second was bad, as Jeff Skinner and Casey Mittelstadt gave Buffalo the lead.
