plenzmd1 Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Let's hope these are all lessons for next year. Man, really thought the Sabres were the better team last night. Lehner looked good, can't fault him on either goal I don't think. Think someone would give a 5th for Legwand?

eball Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 Nice to see Lehner playing well. That's a huge piece of the puzzle for next season when the Sabres rejoin the playoff conversation.
