Dahlin's 5-Point Night Ties Sabres Franchise Record · May 16, 2026
Opening the scoring 32 seconds in with a backhand finish, Dahlin added four assists as Buffalo stormed back from a 3-1 deficit to win 8-3. The five-point outing tied the Sabres' all-time record for points in a playoff game, a mark shared by Derek Roy (2006) and John Tucker (1988) — delivered by their captain in an elimination game, in his first taste of the postseason after ending a franchise-record 14-year playoff drought this spring.
