The Buffalo Sabres' playoff hopes have evaporated as they continue to struggle, suffering their 11th straight loss in a 6-1 defeat against the Montreal Canadiens. The Sabres were outmatched in every facet of the game, failing to generate energy or momentum despite a pep talk from owner Terry Pegula the day before.

“We obviously got embarrassed tonight,” he added. “It’s hard to look forward and put that one past us. We had a big meeting yesterday and 10 in a row, like I don't know right now."

Every part of our game right now needs more,” Clifton said. “It's snowballing right now … we gotta be more prideful.”
Buffalo managed to get things under control for the last half of the first period before Dylan Cozens scored to make it 2-1 three minutes into the second.
