Alex Tuch scored twice and assisted as his team won at KeyBank Center.

Besides Tuch, the goals for Buffalo Sabres were scored by Dylan Cozens and Jack Quinn, and each had an assist. Tage Thompson notched his forty-fourth goal as JJ Peterka helped with 2 assists.

Sabres ended 4 games losing streak and won for 3rd time in their last 13 matches. Goaltender Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen stopped 27 shots and won for the 1st time in his last 7 starts.

Jack Hughes was the best player for the New Jersey Devils with 2 goals and 1 assist. However, the Devil’s form is fragile, with 1 victory in their last 6 matches.

Devils are 1 win away from securing a spot in the playoffs which will be their first clinch after 2018.

New Jersey host Ottawa Senators on Saturday, while Buffalo will make a short trip to face New York Islanders on the same day.
