The Buffalo Sabres lost to the Ottawa Senators 5-3 Wednesday night at HSBC Arena. The loss halts the Sabres win streak at 6 games. The Senators were led by three second period goals, and had to hold off a Buffalo comeback in the third. After being down 4-1 Buffalo stormed back with consecutive goals, but couldn’t close the gap as Ottawa finished with an empty net goal.

The Sabres face the Devils on Friday night and the Penguins on Saturday night, and will then prepare for the Amp Energy NHL Winter Classic on New Year’s Day.
