Lack of a penalty kill buries Sabres

The Montreal Candaians have the best penalty play team in the league, and scored on all three of their chances to beat the Sabres 6-2. The Sabres also managed two powerplay goals (on six oppertunities), but more or less got outplayed all game long.

The Sabres still need ten more wins to make the post season, and get thier next chance on Sunday against the injured Red Wings.
