Sabres Corner: Buffalo Rakes Up Leafs 0
When it looked like Buffalo was struggling against a team with one win, they pulled through and found a way to earn the two points. The Sabres have been doing this all season long. Buffalo has found ways to win when they are not at the top of their game.
The Sabres were not on their game Friday night against Toronto, but goaltender Ryan Miller was. Buffalo was outshot 35-28 and Miller was the main reason the Sabres were even in the game. “That’s who [Ryan Miller] is. He’s a battler and the backbone of our team,” Buffalo captain Craig Rivet said about Miller.
“We played against a feisty team that wanted a win, and he stood on his head a couple times to help us out. He was the main reason we got the win.”
He stopped 33 shots, and with the help of the goal post and some luck, the Sabres stole two points from Toronto.
Miller improved to 8-0-1 on the season as he leads the league in goals against average (.944) and save percentage (1.65).
