NHL Highlights | Oilers vs. Sabres - March 9, 2024

Owen Power had the late OT-winner called back for offside although Alex Tuch finished it off shortly after, potting the shootout winner as the Buffalo Sabres rallied from an early two-goal deficit to defeat the Edmonton Oilers 3-2 in a thriller.

[@Noot_Penguin]

Honestly well done Buffalo. Gave up a goal in the first minute and a shorthanded goal. Plus won the game only for it to be called back. You earned this one lol

[@trvman1]

but you know they are going to go on a losing streak. They always do.

[@xheyderek3356]

I think the Draisaitl-McCleod-Foegele line was one of the changes that brought the Oilers out of the early season slump. So I’m not surprised to see both Foegele and McCleod have goals today! They seem to do well paired with Draisaitl. If I’m not mistaken, ever since Perry was brought in, that second line hasn’t been used. Perry has been awesome (no blame towards him at all), but I just think today’s second line should be used more often. **Edit - I posted this without watching the clip. I feel vindicated that the announcers agree with me. *gives self a handshake*

[@CrossFireGermanyHD]

Yes But draisaitl cant Play without mcjesus. Haha thats what the Haiters say. He so such a playmaker machine

Here for the shootout after shutting the game off after I thought my Sabres won in OT. The Sabres would be a bottom 3 team if it wasn’t for UPL. He’s been fantastic.

[@Billsfan2012]

UPL had a great year, improving his shoot-outs from last year. I think he has improved the most on the Sabres this year.

i wonder if mcdavid is hurt. could have something to do with that awkward stumble he took last week against Seattle?

[@jukee67]

At this point in the season everyone is hurting. If that is the case to where it's affecting his play, it's best to give him a game or two off. I doubt it's enough to call it an injury. It was an off game for one of the best players on the planet. It happens. Wish he would just go full blast in on a shootout attempt, make a move, head fake, whatever and take quick shot. Buffalo deserved the win.
