Jack Eichel extends point streak to nine games with goal.
The Vegas Golden Knights saw its nine-game point streak come to an end with a 5-2 loss to the Buffalo Sabres at T-Mobile Arena on Friday.
Jack Eichel and Ivan Barbashev scored, while Logan Thompson made 22 saves.
“We played losing hockey, and we what do we do? We lost. So there's a little bit of a lesson to be learned there,” Vegas coach Bruce Cassidy said. “We don't lose a lot, but we lost tonight because of I think much more our actions. I'll give Buffalo credit for doing what they do best when we messed up, which was you know, create offensive and good looks and they finished.”
Eichel tied a franchise-record by extending his point streak to nine games.
Vegas returns to the ice on Sunday for a game against the Ottawa Senators.
