Craig Anderson made 40 saves, and the Buffalo Sabres exploded with six third-period goals in a 6–0 shutout of the visiting Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday, Dec. 13.
The game was scoreless until Tage Thompson’s power-play marker at 1:21 of the third period. That tally opened the floodgates for the 14th six-goal period in Sabres history, and the second such outburst within the last week. Buffalo also had six goals in the first period of its 9–4 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Dec. 7.
