On Saturday, the Sabres won their third consecutive road game, defeating the Vancouver Canucks 5-1. Among the notable performances in the contest were two goals from Victor Olofsson and Rasmus Dahlin scoring in his fifth consecutive game. Buffalo has won four out of five games to begin the season.

Bottom right: The Philadelphia Phillies, who finished in third place in their own division this season, are one win away from reaching the World Series. On Saturday, the Phillies rallied from an early 4-0 deficit and defeated the San Diego Padres 10-6 in Game 4 of the NLCS.
