Sabres @ Lightning 2/29 | NHL Highlights 2024

He’s 66 225 lbs and a better be careful next ship  there’s acon with a shot and a save by Luc playing   out the line with j and Celli now the top line  out there that shot not the one COV was looking  

For and lcan has got it and the goals have been  a little harder to come by for him and a lot of   his teammates this season in Buffalo Point try to  work that one in the middle follow up his headman  

Headman over the line gets it to heo COV hits  the post Nikita COV comes close but that stays   out radish back in for crew drop down low oh and  Luc gets a piece on the side against Hegel again  

Beautiful setup play here Hegel keeps the goal  tender in the middle of the ice and then coov   that’s off the near side post and then COV back  to Hegel returning the favor and that just goes  

Up pick up by radish radish centers here’s Hegel  he was tied up picked up now by Hond Hond into   the middle CRA again with a shot muscle down that  could raise the temperature a bit leads the Sabers  

In hits and that was a big one right there as  baseli has got it I’m just glad that Tyler M was   able to get up after that one and he’ll remember  Conor Clifton’s not the biggest guy at 5’11 but he  

Hit him hard here’s power power towards and and  that Ricochet off the near post we know they’re   far better than that and they’ll try to break  out of that right here Here Comes COV flies into  

The Zone has Clifton out in front Point wa stop  bra and points power play goal one nothing Tampa Bay then look at the overload they only have four  guys on the ice the Buffalo Sabers are a man short  

All three guys eyes on one side of the ice so  Braden Point could have driven a truck down the   middle of the ice you could see the fake that  he could put on the goenda in has to go for it  

He thinks bradden’s going to shoot right there  and then Braden holds on with terrific balance   and finish across the ice to Peyton KBS KBS with  a little space throws it back across quick shot   saved by solki and it stays loose tuck whips  this one around to Thompson Thompson taking  

His time pat it down low and that pass never got  through and now they’ve turned it over and tied   the game little sloppy inside their own blue line  and the Sabers make them pay that it’s tuck tying  

It up at one do get a little sloppy everybody’s  in position they got enough guys back it’s the   point line that’s out there and they just they  have it for a second and Braden tries to maintain  

Control making a pass out of the zone to to uh  kroer moving up from his defense position well   tuck is in the blind spot Nick Paul surrounded  by a couple of Savers and it’s KBS here’s the   lay man shot right off save and the rebound  pops right back to Buffalo stops him across  

To Johnson his shot gets to stopped by vasilki  they try to take it out they do that is Hegel   Hegel up high in the zone being watched there by  cousins now with point point what a move back at  

Save by Luan beautiful little move he makes here  watch him pull this in into his feet oh man that   is unreal dalim just got caught reaching here  he never saw this one coming but bradden’s got   that little toe curve and he put it right  in the triangle between the stick and the  

Feet of Dalene had him leaning way over to one  side you’re supposed to protect the front of the and Puck battle won by radish works it up to  Sherry Sherry drops it off there a shot and lcan  

Got a piece and then release from BL ins side it’s  D he’s checked again by Clinton who’s really been   Landing some big body check here stanos oh what  a stop there by Lucan as stanos got all of that  

One good work along the wall Nick Paul top of  the screen help turn the puck over then Hegel   there’s the overload by Buffalo and stammer is  all alone he hammered that one a watch again to   watch the goenda moves so well with this play  stammer can’t quite see him moving across but  

His anticipation and his look of knowing there we  go he knew Stam Coast was there he seemed to be   the only Buffalo sa point for the lightning Alex  Chuck for the Savers back up the middle there’s  

Some room and that one goes off the post that was  gurgenson who had vasileski beaten on that play and now Buffalo up the ice that’s Eric  Robinson can’t work it any deeper and   now back the way comes Tyler M mod with a  lane takes the shot and LC and another sharp

Stop here’s chaffy Mitchell chaffy through Center  Ice dumps it off to selli sell’s pass and chck   with a shot scores chck with a drive TI in front  by Mitchell chaffy and it’s 2-1 Tampa Bay in his  

Last few games this one nothing fancy about it  get to the front of the net make sure you’re   taking away the goenda piece of it the goenda in  comes out and gets close to him which is the right  

Idea for a golender with a guy right in his face  get close to him so we can’t change the direction   of the shot very much but when it changes that  much out in front loose Puck and Benson couldn’t  

Get a shot away turn that great recovery out  of the corner and here comes Nick Paul Paul   he shoots hits the B Nick Paul on the rush here  terrific shot look where luk cousins into the   slot mishandled by tuck and cleared out again  by Glen Denny yeah Buffalo with goals in four of  

Their last five games on the power play Thompson  scores Tage Thompson bar down and it’s a tie game   it’s a moving screen right in front of him and  Jeff skitter I think takes the concentration in  

The eyes away from vasileski just for a second see  how Skinner comes from the middle of the ice right   across the field division right at the bottom of  your screen also on top of that Hayden flurry is  

Trying to defend against them but the super slow  mode shows you the release of Tage Thompson but   it doesn’t show you the velocity headman is  going to drop this one off and here comes COV   drops off for point point stripped and now it’s  Greenway shorthanded Jord Greenway stopped by

Vasileski Buffalo one in this building last  season in OT here’s Thompson Thompson with a   lane and he couldn’t get it up and over taking the  penalty protects the puck really well put it well  

In front of him vasileski makes a heck of a save  he’s ready for the move across but he doesn’t move   too far stays right with it concentration that’s  a heck of a glove save coo off try he is so three  

And a half to go in the overtime session at the  top it is darene darene feeds it down low into   the corner for midat back to delene Acy midad  and in front day score back door Dalene game

Over so the Buffalo Sabers come back tie it in  the third and take it in OT 32 final execution   no doubt about that you’ve got the loop up  talk which you saw on the diagram but it’s   it’s the back door play that pays off Casey midat  really smart the lightning worried about what’s  

Going to happen coming from the blue line and  Dalene just slips in but it’s the pass and all   Dalene has to do is knock it in that’s that’s  really well done and so tough to defend and it  

Is now four straight losses on home ice for the  first time since John Cooper’s First full season
