Audacy • • sports
Key Points:
- The Buffalo Sabres have performed well in back-to-back games this season, holding an 8-5-0 record in the first game and an 8-1-3 record in the second game of back-to-backs.
- Alex Lyon may miss Thursday's game due to a lower-body injury sustained during Wednesday's morning skate, likely leading to Colten Ellis starting his first game since February 3.
- Despite a slow start and poor special teams performance against the Rangers, the Sabres rallied in the third period to win 5-3, reclaiming first place in the Atlantic Division.
- The Sabres have struggled against the Columbus Blue Jackets this season, losing both previous matchups, while Columbus is fighting to stay close to a playoff spot with a recent 1-5-1 record in their last seven games.
- Key players include Columbus goalie Jet Greaves, who leads with strong stats, and defenseman Zach Werenski, who tops the team in scoring, while Buffalo's Rasmus Dahlin also remains a significant contributor.
