It’s HNIC, and the Sabres came to Toronto to escape the snow. Let’s get right to it:
First Period
Already tired of hearing about how tall Tage Thompson is, but I think he’s a really interesting player, and he keps the puck away from the Leafs very easily.
Three Sabres players below their own goal line to keep the Leafs from doing anything with the puck. A thing I’m watching for is very tight defensive bunching from the opponents like the Devils used.
The Matthews line gets a rush chance, and ... Michael Bunting ends up taking the shot with not viable rebound resulting.
