Buffalo – Someone tells the New York Rangers that the 4 Nations face-off break is over.
The Blues Shirt's first game against the Sabres on Saturday night came out a disastrous start when star goalkeeper Igor Shesterkin pulled only 18:21 into the game after giving up five goals on 16 shots. I've cut it off.
That was the goal of five Sabers compared to Rangers' Zero.
Not only did the home team take a 5-0 lead, but Buffalo doubled the Rangers 16-8 on goal shots.
Head coach Peter LaViolett had grasped the line combination to try and change the rangers' momentum, but nothing seemed to work.
The Rangers may have had twice the players the Sabres had in the 4 Nations tournament, but all six players compete at some point, but it was a bad start to the entire team.
The Sabres had three players, but only two actually played.
