  • Buffalo Sabres Digital Press
    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips December 7, 2013 Sabres-Canadiens Preview Associated Press December 6, 2013 The red-hot Montreal Canadiens have jumped into first place in the Atlantic Division. Ensuring they remain there for more than 48 hours won't require anything extraordinary - just a win Saturday night against the lowly Buffalo Sabres at the Bell Centre. The surge that got the Canadiens (18-9-3) to the top of the division has been more impressive. They're 8-0-1 since Nov. 19 and haven't allowed more than three goals in 13 straight games. It doesn't seem league-worst Buffalo (6-21-2) should throw them off track. While Montreal can win six straight at home for the first time since a nine-game run to close 2006-07, the Sabres try to avoid a sixth consecutive road loss after dropping the last five by a 17-5 margin. Thursday's 2-1 home win over Boston extended Montreal's overall winning streak to four while pushing the team one point ahead of the Bruins for the Atlantic lead. "For us, it was the ideal opportunity to give it our all," defenseman P.K. Subban told the team's official website. "It's really satisfying to know that your team is on top because you worked hard. We're proving day after day that this team is part of the elite in the NHL." Carey Price made 32 saves to win a sixth consecutive start during the team's streak without a regulation loss, and he hasn't allowed more than two goals in nine straight.
