However, the Sabres not only blew their first-period lead but did so brutally. They allowed six unanswered goals in the following two periods and lost by a 6-2 final score. This included four goals during the third period, one of which was an empty-netter.
It is not very common for an NHL team to allow six unanswered goals, so this loss will undoubtedly haunt the Sabres. This is especially true given that they were in such a good spot after the first period.
