Buffalo Sabres v. Montreal Canadiens - By the Numbers

This was an ugly performance by the Buffalo Sabres but it still counts as two points in the standings. This is the first two points that Ryan Miller had to steal this season and he was spectacular along the way. That is a great sign for the Sabres this season.

The scoring chances you will see after the jump will show you exactly how ugly this game was for the Sabres. We all know they were out shot by a 2-to-1 margin and the scoring chances show the same conclusion.
