Sabres Storm Back from 3-1 Down, Score Seven Straight to Force Game 7 · May 16, 2026
Buffalo kept their season alive at the Bell Centre, erasing a 3-1 first-period deficit with seven unanswered goals to beat Montreal 8-3 in Game 6. The Sabres scored on three of their first four shots to seize control early, but the Sabres answered emphatically once Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen replaced starter Alex Lyon — stopping all 18 shots he faced the rest of the way. Dahlin's five-point night and four power-play goals powered the comeback, evening the series 3-3 and setting up a winner-take-all Game 7 in Buffalo on Monday.
