The Bolts surrendered the game's first three goals in the opening period. Eric Brewer and Stamkos cut into the Penguins lead with two early second period tallies, but Penguins' forward responded with his first career NHL goal to put Pittsburgh up 4-2 after two periods. Cory Conacher made it 4-3 three minutes into the final frame, but that would be as close as the Lightning would get. added an empty net goal to make it a 5-3 final.

TONIGHT’S GAME SABRES at LIGHTNING -This is the first of three meetings between the Sabres and Lightning this season. -Last meeting: Buffalo defeated Tampa Bay, 7-3, in Tampa Bay on March 19, 2012. -These teams next meet on Tuesday, March 26 in Tampa Bay. -The Sabres are 5-5-0 in their last 10 games vs. the Lightning; 7-3-0 on the road. -This is the 75th game all-time between Buffalo and Tampa Bay; Buffalo leads the series with a 47-22-5 record. They are 25-9-3 on the road against the Lightning.

THIS DAY IN SABRES HISTORY •The Sabres are 5-8-6 all-time on Feb. 26. They haven’t won on this date in their last 11 tries, with the last win coming on Feb. 26, 1987, a 4-3 win vs. St. Louis that featured the 99th hat trick in franchise history (Wilf Paiement). •Feb. 26, 1995: Dominik Hasek appeared in his 100th game with the Sabres, a 4-2 loss to the NY Rangers.

STORYLINES 1. The Sabres have lost four straight games for the first time this season. They will look to avoid their first five-game regulation losing streak since they went 0-5-0 from Jan. 14 to Jan. 21, 2012. 2. Buffalo hasn’t lost three straight road games in regulation since that same 0-5-0 run, all of which were on the road.

THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW •The Sabres are in the midst of an eight-game stretch without any back-to-back games; it is the longest such stretch of the season. •Dating back to last season, Thomas Vanek has 36 points (14+22) in his last 28 games. •Since 2005-06, 24 of 33 teams replacing their head coach mid-season have seen an improvement in their record after replacing the coach; 14 of those teams made the playoffs that season.

HOW THEY STACK UP (Sabres ranked in the top 10 in the NHL before 2/25 games) Thomas Vanek: 25 points (T-3rd), 12 goals (T-3rd), 5 power play goals (T-4th), 26 takeaways (1st) Jason Pominville: 18 takeaways (T-6th) Steve Ott: 82 hits (1st) Marcus Foligno: 7 assists (T-3rd, rookies), 8 points (T-7th, rookies), 19 PIM (4th, rookies), 45 hits (4th, rookies)

LEADING THE WAY AGAINST TAMPA BAY •Four Sabres (Pominville, Vanek, Stafford, Hodgson) average more than a point per game against the Lightning in their careers. •Ryan Miller is 18-7-0 all-time against TBL with a 2.75 GAA. •Jason Pominville leads all Sabres with 35 points (16+19) in 27 games against TBL. •Thomas Vanek leads the team with 23 goals in only 28 games against TBL, five shy of his career-best 28 against Boston (48 GP).

LOGGING BIG MINUTES Defenseman Christian Ehrhoff has averaged 24:57 TOI per game this season, the highest average of his career and the highest per- game average by a Sabres skater since Alexei Zhitnik skated 25:01 per game in the 2003-04 season. Jason Pominville’s average TOI of 20:46 is the highest by a Sabres forward since Miroslav Satan averaged 21:23 in 2002-03.

MEET THE NEW BOSS After being named interim head coach of the Buffalo Sabres on Feb. 20, Ron Rolston became the 16th head coach in Sabres history. Rolston joins the Sabres after spending the 2011-12 and 2012-13 seasons as head coach of the (AHL), compiling a 63-44-17 regular-season record. Prior to joining the Americans, Rolston spent seven seasons as head coach with USA Hockey’s National Team Development Program, where he led the Under-18 team to three gold medals and a silver medal in four tournaments as head coach at the IIHF World Under-18 Championship.

CHANGING OF THE GUARD The Sabres hired Ron Rolston to serve as interim head coach on Feb. 20 after the Sabres got off to a 6-10-1 (.382) start. It was the first time the Sabres had replaced their head coach mid-season since John Muckler took over for Rick Dudley on Dec. 11, 1991 after a 9-15-4 (.393) start to the season. The 1991-92 team went 22-22-8 under Muckler, ending the season 31-37-12 and finishing third in the Adams Division to clinch a playoff spot.

RISING IN THE RECORD BOOKS With a goal Feb. 5 at OTT, Jason Pominville passed Alexander Mogilny (444) for 12th-most points in Sabres history.
