Sabres' Robin Lehner: Stops 34 in loss

Lehner (neck) made saves on 34 of 37 shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to Boston.

Analysis:

Lehner didn't miss any action after taking a stick to the neck in Tuesday's game. He's won just eight of his 25 starts for a Sabres team that's scored the fewest goals per game in the Eastern Conference. Things don't get any easier with a three-game road swing that starts on New Year's Eve against these same Bruins, with the Rangers and Blackhawks to follow.
