The Leafs took on the late-stage Buffalo Sabres tonight.
First Period
The Matthews line gets some early zone time, putting several shots on Sabres goalie Chad Johnson. During a shift of sustained Bozak line pressure, the Sabres’ Jacob Larsson gets hit in the face with a puck, which required some on-the-bench stitching.
Andreas Johnsson zoomed up the middle of the ice past the Sabres for a partial break and gets a good chance going sideways on Johnson (keep your Johnsons in order, folks.)
Despite the Leafs being all over the Sabres early, Buffalo gets goal number one.
