Buffalo Sabres Grab Impressive Win In Game Three Against Boston

Just a couple of days after the Buffalo Sabres dropped a tough Game Two at the KeyBank Center in downtown Buffalo, the hometown team hopped on a flight to Beantown to face the Bruins in a critical Game Three.

The winner of this game would take a 2-1 lead in the playoffs and be one step closer to moving on to the next round.

Boston struck first in the second period when Tanner Jeannot put the first goal in the net against Alex Lyon, giving the Bruins a 1-0 lead. For Boston, that would be the only time they celebrate a goal, as the Sabres would take control of the game and not look back from there.

Buffalo proceeded to score three unanswered goals against Jeremy Swayman and the Boston Bruins.

Assisted by Noah Ostlund and Owen Power on an amazing pass, the Sabres' first goal of the night came from Bowen Byram with around 9 minutes left in the second period.

The next two goals for the Sabres came in the third period as Alex Tuch went up high with a great shot to earn his second score of the playoffs, which gave Buffalo the lead with around 15 minutes to go in the third.

Not to be outdone, Noah Ostlund decided to grab a nice empty-netter goal against the Bruins with less than 2 minutes left in the game.

With the Sabres leading this series 2-1, we now look forward to Game 4, which is set for this coming Sunday, April 26th, at Boston's TD Garden.
