Lindy Ruff Secures 600th Win as Sabres Defeat Senators 3-2

Buffalo's victory marks Ruff's milestone and continues their dominance over Ottawa, while the Senators' playoff hopes take a hit.

Lindy Ruff became the NHL's second coach to achieve 600 wins with a single franchise, trailing only Al Arbor's 740 wins with the New York Islanders.
Tage Thompson scored the game-winning goal early in the third period, his 35th of the season, leading the Sabres to their third victory over Ottawa this season.
Goaltender James Reimer made 30 saves, securing his second consecutive win as a starter for Buffalo this season.
The Sabres, despite being last in the Eastern Conference, have maintained a strong home record, going 12-4-0 in their last 16 home games.
The Senators, aiming for their first playoff appearance since 2017, have now lost three of their last four games, jeopardizing their postseason aspirations.
