Devan Dubnyk records shutout (of Sabres) in 1st start with Wild

The Minnesota Wild do have their man. 

Devan Dubnyk made 18 saves for the shutout in his first start since being acquired from the Arizona Coyotes, leading the Wild to a 7-0 drubbing of the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday night. 

Dubnyk's clean sheet is his second this season and marks the first time in franchise history a Wild goaltender has recorded a shutout in his debut, per Michael Russo of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.  

For the Sabres, the touchdown scoreline marked their worst loss ever at the First Niagara Center and they have now been outscored 39-9 on a nine-game losing skid.
