The Buffalo Sabres picked up their second-straight home victory as they defeated the Anaheim Ducks, 6-3, on Saturday afternoon at KeyBank Center. With the win, Buffalo improved to 23-19-2 on the season.
The Sabres played pretty well for the most part but were sloppy in the second period, which allowed Anaheim to score all three of their goals. Buffalo netted three goals in the final period to pull away.
