Sabres erupt to 8-3 win, force deciding Game 7 against Canadiens

Buffalo erased a 3-1 deficit and roared to an 8-3 win in Game 6 at Montreal to force a winner-take-all Game 7 in Buffalo. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen stopped all 17 shots in relief after 10 minutes, while the Sabres plated seven unanswered goals, including four on the power play. Rasmus Dahlin had five points (1 goal, 4 assists) and Tage Thompson four (1+3), with Jack Quinn scoring his first career playoff goals and Zach Benson adding a multi-point night. Konsta Helenius also scored, and Zach Metsa debuted with a playoff goal. Buffalo set a road playoff record with eight goals, and Game 7 will be Monday at KeyBank Center on ESPN.

Stagnant Celtics Offense and Brown's Turnovers Seal Game 6 Loss to Sixers

Boston's offense stagnated, turning the ball over 12 times and failing to generate second chances, as the Sixers rode a disciplined start and efficient defense to a Game 6 lead. Jaylen Brown had a rough night with multiple costly turnovers and defensive miscues, Neemias Queta struggled overall, and Boston's lack of ball movement left the offense stagnant and overly dependent on hero-ball, leading to a late Celtics push that wasn’t enough.

Logan Stanley is questionable with illness, with Michael Kesselring expected to slot in if he can’t go; Alex Lyon is slated to start in goal for a fourth straight game, and Rochester’s Black Aces add depth as needed.

Wolves Face Self-Inflicted Turnover Pressure Ahead of Game 6

Minnesota leads the series 3-2 but a 125-113 Game 5 loss to Denver featured 25 Timberwolves turnovers and a late surge by the Nuggets, spotlighting self-inflicted mistakes as the main issue. Wolves players insist they won’t overthink it, emphasizing simple decisions, discipline, and defense to avoid another setback. With Game 6 in Minneapolis, Minnesota believes trimming those turnovers (by roughly 10) could swing the series back in their favor, while Denver faces pressure to close out if the Wolves can net a win at home.
