On April 20th, Buffalo Sabers pulled off a wild 4-3 comeback win over the Boston Bruins in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference playoffs at Keybank Center. They dropped three goals in just four minutes and 34 seconds late in the third period to steal it from the jump. This marks Buffalo's first Stanley Cup playoff game since April 26, 2011, and they're the top seed out the Atlantic Division, facing Boston as the East's first wildcard. Taj Thompson lit it up with two goals and an assist. Alex Touch added a goal and assist. And goalie, Uco Peca, Lucunin stood tall with 17. Saves to seal the deal. Boston got goals from Morgan Geeky and Elias Lindholm early, with David Pastrenack notching a goal and two assists, but Jeremy Swaman faced. 34 shots in the loss. Pastrenack clawed one back on the power play with eight seconds left, but Buffalo held firm. No time for a miracle. Heads up, gain twos next, and the Sabers got the momentum rolling.
