Lehner makes 37 saves in Sabres’ 4-0 win over Senators
BUFFALO, N.Y. — Robin Lehner relied on his knowledge of his former team to earn his first shutout of the season.
Lehner made 37 saves, Kyle Okposo scored his 16th goal and the Buffalo Sabres beat the Ottawa Senators 4-0 on Saturday night to snap a three-game skid.
Lehner got his fourth career shutout. His first two came with the Senators, who traded him to Buffalo before last season.
“They are a smart team out there. Obviously, playing with them a little bit, I know their tendencies and where they are going to go,” Lehner said. “I do a lot of pre-scout, a lot of thinking out there. That’s a big part of my game, to try and see what’s going to happen.”
