Buffalo Sabres Snap 13-Game Losing Streak

The Buffalo Sabres ended a 13-game winless streak with a commanding 7-1 victory over the New York Islanders, marking their first win since November 23. Captain Rasmus Dahlin led the charge with four assists, while rookie Jiri Kulich scored twice. The Sabres were dominant throughout the game, scoring twice in the first period, three times in the second, and twice more in the third, providing a much-needed boost heading into the holiday break. Despite the win, the Sabres remain at the bottom of the Eastern Conference with a 12-19-4 record. The victory comes after a challenging month where they were outscored 54-28 and had several close losses. Coach Lindy Ruff emphasized the importance of maintaining momentum as they look to build on this victory against the Chicago Blackhawks next.
