BUFFALO
Dallas Goedert Jersey Elite , N.Y. — Things went surprisingly well for the Buffalo Sabres in their recent three-game road trip. Their return home? Not so much.
The Sabres followed up their best stretch of the season with a lackluster display in a 3-1 loss to the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday. They’ll look to rebound with another home game against the Florida Panthers on Thursday.
“Our five-on-five game wasn’t where it needed to be,” Sabres coach Phil Housley said, according to the team’s website. “We talked this morning about where they are as a desperate team. They just played with more urgency. I didn’t think we respected the position they were in. Coming off a road trip, you would’ve thought we would have gained confidence and been sharp.”

You guys saw that we can play that way and we all see it too, so we need to play that way for our fans and for this city. Tonight’s unacceptable but we get another shot at it on Thursday.”

In an effort to try and provide a spark on offense, the Sabres moved forward Evander Kane to the top line at Tuesday’s practice alongside Eichel and Kyle Okposo. Kane started the year hot but has cooled off as of late.
“I think they had good chemistry early,” Housley said, according to the team’s website. “It was just a change to maybe spark Evander a little bit

The Panthers are without goaltenders Roberto Luongo and James Reimer because of injuries.
