    Mike Hoffman’s hat trick not enough to keep Ottawa Senators from falling to Buffalo Sabres 5-4

    OTTAWA — Mike Hoffman had the hat trick, but this time there was no comeback story for the Ottawa Senators.
    And this was a big loss in more ways than one.
    Not only were the Senators unable to extend their winning streak to five straight games in a 5-4 loss to the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday night in front of 14,239 at Canadian Tire Centre, they also finished the game without winger Bobby Ryan and defenceman Marc Methot.
    Hoffman completed his first career three-goal game late in the third, while Mark Stone also chipped in for the Senators. Ryan O’Reilly scored twice, while Jack Eichel had a goal and an assist in his season debut and Sam Reinhart and Kyle Okposo also beat Craig Anderson. Ottawa closed out November with a 9-5-1 record.
    “It feels good to get the hat trick, but at the end of day, we didn’t win so that’s the main thing,” said Hoffman, who scored the club’s second of the night on the power play at 18:29 of the third.

    The Sabres scored three times on the power play and that was the difference.
    Ryan left after aggravating a hand injury he suffered Nov. 17 against Nashville that forced him to miss two games and coach Guy Boucher said he won’t play Thursday.
    “Bobby Ryan will be out. He won’t play the next game for sure,” said Boucher, who added Methot is day-to-day with a lower-body injury
    While former Senators goaltender Robin Lehner started the game, he didn’t finish. He limped down the hall to the club’s dressing room with 2:21 left in the first after stopping five shots and didn’t return, but was on the bench.
    That left backup Anders Nilsson to finish the game.
    Following a terrible start in the first, the Senators turned up the heat on the Sabres in the second and completely outplayed them, but were trailing 4-3 after 40 minutes.
    Boucher wasn’t impressed with the way his team played, especially to start.
    “I was hoping the first period would be better than I thought it would be,” Boucher said. “We didn’t do a good job in the first period and that’s what killed us. That’s what sank us.”
    Nilsson had to be solid because the Senators threw everything they had his way by outshooting Buffalo 17-4 in the second period alone. 
    After the Sabres pulled out to a 4-2 lead on Reinhart’s effort at 17:08, Hoffman brought the home side back to within a goal with only 43 seconds left with his second of the game.
    The Senators won’t be happy because they appeared to tie it up 3-3 with 3:50 left in the second, but the apparent goal by Dion Phaneuf was called back. It was ruled that Chris Neil interfered with Nilsson before the puck crossed the line.
    “We started out slow, their power play was clicking and we were chasing our tails all night,” said Anderson, who faced 28 shots. “We didn’t start out right. Bad luck bounces put us in the hole.
    “Our (penalty kill) definitely struggled tonight. We lost the special teams battle. They got three and we got two. At the end of the day, you’ve got to win or tie the special teams battle. Usually we’re pretty good but we just weren’t able to shut those guys down for some reason.”
    For the first time this season, the Senators scored a power-play goal in two straight games and both have come from Stone.
    After scoring Sunday in New York, Stone — playing his 200th NHL game — picked up a loose puck in front that nobody seemed to be able to find and beat Nilsson on the stick side to pull Ottawa to within 3-2 at 8:20.
    The Senators were trailing 3-1, were outshot 14-7 and, while Ottawa had played solid defensively in the last week, there was no evidence of that in the first 20 minutes.
    After falling behind 2-0 after allowing consecutive power-play goals, Hoffman got the club on the board at 13:47. The public address announcer hadn’t even finished giving the details of the goal when only 31 seconds later, O’Reilly beat Anderson with a backhander to restore a two-goal lead for the Sabres.
    Less than 10 minutes into his season debut, Eichel had a goal and an assist. He scored his first of the year on the power play with a rocket that beat Anderson on the stick side at 9:31. That came with Mark Borowiecki in the box.

    “We made some good pushes, the power play look good and a lot of things look good there was just a little bit of frustration and they made some good plays on us,” Stone said.

    I know,  the owner Terry Pegula also owns our Buffalo Bills...I just hope he gets one of them to make us proud. It's been a very long time that either of them have even made a good showing...
