Buffalo Sabres

It is very likely that the Ottawa Senators are going to trade forward Matt Duchene before Monday's NHL Trade Deadline at 3 p.m. EST. On Thursday, the Senators sat Duchene, along with teammates Mark Stone and Ryan Dzingel, against the New Jersey Devils to protect their assets before a potential...

The Sabres are on the ice against the NHL's top team, taking on the Tampa Bay Lightning. Buffalo and the Lightning are scoreless in the opening period.

Tampa, FL (WGR 550) - This season the Sabres have beaten Tampa Bay 2-1 and lost 5-4 and 4-3.
