The Buffalo Sabres staged a third-period comeback against the Anaheim Ducks, narrowing a 3-0 deficit to a single goal. Goals by Jordan Greenway and Kyle Okposo, with Greenway tipping in a 6-on-4 power play goal and Okposo scoring from the slot, ignited the rally. Despite pulling goaltender UPL with 2:23 left for an extra attacker, the Sabres were defeated 4-2 after Adam Henrique's empty-net goal sealed the win for the Ducks.
Henrique empty netter with 1:09 left. 4-2. The #Sabres didn't remotely deserve a point in this one and they won't get one.
