In a stunning turn of events, a late-game surge by the Buffalo Sabres' Mark Pysyk and a subsequent goal by Jeff Skinner were not enough to overcome a 4-3 deficit against the Montreal Canadiens. However, the game took a dramatic turn when Buffalo's Mark Pysyk scored with just 29 seconds remaining, setting the stage for a thrilling conclusion. The Canadiens' Carey Price was left stunned as the Sabres' goalie, Linus Ullmark, was pulled in favor of an extra attacker, but the Canadiens managed to hold off the Sabres' final push to secure the win. The dramatic finish marked a tough loss for the Sabres, who had fought back from a 3-0 deficit earlier in the game.
