Daily News | Goalie Samuel Ersson posts his first NHL shutout as the Flyers blank the Buffalo Sabres, 4-0
BUFFALO — One night after the Toronto Maple Leafs stuck it to the Flyers, 6-2, capitalizing on a litany of blunders and gaffes, the Flyers turned around and bullied the Buffalo Sabres at the drop of the puck.
For the first time this season, the Sabres — previously ranked No. 1 in the league in goals for per game — were held without a goal. While the Flyers struggled defensively on Sunday night against the Leafs, winger Nicolas Deslauriers and the fourth line got in on the forecheck and helped create scoring chances, including his first goal since Oct. 29. That momentum carried into the first period against the Sabres when Tortorella opted to deploy the fourth line on the Flyers’ first offensive-zone draw of the first period.
