  2. From the Locker Room: Sabres-Red Wings The Buffalo Sabres stayed hot in Detroit on Saturday night, skating to their ninth-straight victoty with a 3-2 shootout win over the Red Wings. Jeff Skinner netted his 18th goal of the season just 3:37 into the game, giving the Sabres the early lead. Detroit's Dylan Larkin tied the game at 1-1 in the second period, but Tage Thompson put the Sabres back on top with a rocket of a one-timer midway through the third period. The Red Wings later tied the game 2-2 and ended up playing the Sabres all the way to a shootout. Buffalo won the seven-round shootout 2-1, Tage Thompson kept the Sabres alive with a tying goal in the fifth round and Sam Reinhart won it in the seventh round with a beautiful top-shelf back hand. Linus Ullmark had an outstanding night in goal, recording 35 saves on 37 shots faced; he also stopped 6/7 Detroit attempts in the shootout. Hear from Thompson, Ullmark, Jack Eichel and coach Phil Housley following Buffalo's victory.

  7. THREE AND OUT: Quick takes on big developments across the league 1) Andrew Luck's evolution under Frank Reich. It's hard to justify including a .500 quarterback in the MVP discussion, but Andrew Luck deserves "honorable mention" status based on his exceptional play this season. After missing the entire 2017 campaign with a shoulder issue, the three-time Pro Bowler has posted fine numbers in 2018: 67.3 percent completion rate, 29:9 touchdown-to-interception ratio, 101.8 passer rating. Luck's projected final numbers (4,430 pass yards, 46:14 TD-to-INT ratio, along with the aforementioned completion rate and passer rating) show he's on a pace quite similar to the average of the last 10 quarterbacks to win the MVP award (67.0 percent completion rate, 4,507 pass yards, 39:9 TD-to-INT ratio, 109.2 passer rating). That's an insane amount of production coming from a quarterback returning to the lineup following a career-threatening injury to his throwing arm, but it is even more remarkable when you consider Luck's circumstances. He returned to a Colts team that featured one blue-chip player (T.Y. Hilton) and a handful of "possibles" (Eric Ebron, Jack Doyle, Erik Swoope and Mo Alie-Cox) on the perimeter. Not to mention, he's playing behind a rebuilt offensive line with a couple of rookies (Quenton Nelson and Braden Smith) acclimating to the pro game. Considering Luck is also stepping into a new offensive system crafted by a first-time head coach, No. 12's success demands great appreciation, especially with Indianapolis (5-5) surprisingly right in playoff contention. While most of the credit for Luck's performance should go directly to the quarterback for his diligent work on and off the field, the arrival of Reich (and his quarterback-friendly system) has certainly helped Luck become a more effective and efficient player from the pocket. Instead of Indy's old "bombs away" system that encouraged Luck to hold onto the ball while waiting on deep routes to uncover from traditional and spread formations, the Colts are using a quick-rhythm scheme that features a number of short and intermediate routes from spread formations, as well as two- and three-man vertical routes from run-heavy sets following hard play-action fakes.
