2015-16 NHL Season - Day 176

It's a bit of a tiny post here, with just one game tonight. The Buffalo Sabres host the Columbus Blue Jackets, with Joonas Korpisalo and Jason Kasdorf as the goalies. Columbus drew first blood in the first period with a Matt Calvert goal, his tenth of the season coming on the power play from Brandon Dubinsky and Ryan Murray. Buffalo tied it on a Sam Reinhart power play goal in the second period, his twenty-third of the year, powered by Jack Eichel and Matt Moulson. The Blue Jackets took the lead with a Nick Foligno goal, his twelfth of the season, helped along by Boone Jenner and Josh Anderson. Columbus added on with a Dalton Prout goal, his third of the year, via William Karlsson. The Blue Jackets extended the lead as Brandon Saad scored his thirtieth of the season in the third period, thanks to Alexander Wennberg and Oliver Bjorkstrand. This held for a 4-1 win, with the three stars given to Korpisalo (34 for 35 in saves), Foligno, and Saad.
