Buffalo Sabres Summary

The Buffalo Sabres rallied to defeat the Boston Bruins 3-1 in Game 3 of their playoff series, taking a crucial 2-1 lead. Bowen Byram scored shortly after the Bruins missed a penalty shot, and Alex Tuch broke a third-period tie to secure the victory.

Goaltender Alex Lyon made 24 saves in his first postseason start, stepping in for Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen, who had been pulled in Game 2 after allowing four goals. The Sabres' win came despite ongoing struggles with their power play, as they remain 0-for-9 in the series.

Josh Norris was absent for the game due to injury, making his status day-to-day. The Sabres will look to build on this momentum in Game 4, scheduled for Sunday in Boston.
