Despite national ice hockey player John-Jason Peterka’s sixth goal of the season, the Buffalo Sabers have suffered their next setback in the North American professional league NHL.
The Sabers lost away to the Winnipeg Jets 2-3 (Friday, November 17th, 2023; local time) and suffered their third defeat in a row. With 15 points, Buffalo is in seventh and second-to-last place in the Atlantic Division, with only the top three teams in each division safely making it to the playoffs at the end of the regular season.
Detroit suffers another defeat
Meanwhile, the Detroit Red Wings around national player Moritz Seider suffered their second defeat within 24 hours on the NHL’s European tour. In Stockholm, the Red Wings lost 2-3 to the Toronto Maple Leafs, and Seider didn’t contribute to the goal.
The evening before, Detroit had to admit defeat after overtime against Tim Stützle’s Ottawa Senators. Despite the two defeats, the Red Wings remain fourth in the Atlantic Division, within striking distance of the playoff places.
