As much as I hate to point it out, the Sabres continued what may be their most glaring fault over the first fifteen games of the 2023-24 season—the inability to earn back-to-back wins more than once.
However, that is only one way to look at their record. Since the start of November, they’ve earned a record of 3-2-1. Despite the inconsistency, the fact that they are gaining points and growing as a team is a promising sign for the future.
Pittsburgh’s most significant signing this past offseason was All-Star defenseman Erik Karlsson. He led all scorers with two goals in the third period. Evgeni Malkin finished with a goal and an assist, but goaltender Tristan Jarry took home the game’s first star. He stopped all 35 shots faced to earn his third shutout of the season and 16th of his career.
With the win, the Pens extended their impressive winning streak to four games, a feat that commands respect in the league.
The Sabres are gearing up for an exciting game on home ice on Tuesday at 7 p.m. against the Boston Bruins. It’s an opportunity for them to showcase their potential and make a lasting impression in the season.
