Sabres generate chances but fall to Kings in home opener
The Sabres had earned their own 5-on-3 power play early in the game but were unable to beat Kings goaltender Darcy Kuemper, who finished the night with 10 high-danger saves and 32 stops total. Buffalo continued to generate consistent chances from that point on but was stifled either by Kuemper, the posts, or – in one instance – the clock.
