Roslovic tied it 1-1 at 4:29 of the second period. He came up the middle and one-timed a feed from Leon Draisaitl over Ellis’ right arm.
Roslovic has seven points (four goals, three assists) during his point streak.
“We’ve been very fortunate to have Jack on the team and he’s providing a lot, pushing the pace, being able to just carry the puck into the zone,” Knoblauch said. “Obviously, the goals, he’s had many of those (seven). He’s been a nice addition. We’d like to get some more contributions from throughout our lineup, but Jack has been a good player for us.”
Bowen Byram put the Sabres back in front 2-1 with a wrist shot from the right circle that beat Skinner inside the near post at 8:41.
Beck Malenstyn pushed it to 3-1 at 9:43 by tipping in Dahlin’s shot shot from the left point. It was his first goal since Dec. 31, 2024.
“I think the biggest thing in the third is still being aggressive,” Malenstyn said. “Getting that extra goal puts more pressure on them, all of that kind of stuff. But realistically it was sticking to that same game plan. Maybe there’s a few plays that you aren’t quite as aggressive, you keep a guy back, but for the most part, I thought we played on the front foot, which allowed us to keep them under pressure and not give them anything for free.”
Ostlund extended it to 4-1 with his second goal at 7:55 of the third period. He took the puck out from behind the net and curled around in the right circle before scoring with a wrist shot that went far side on Skinner.
Ostlund entered the night with one goal in 18 NHL games.
“I don’t really know what really happened to their defense, but I’m happy for it and good to get a goal there,” he said.
