Buffalo Sabres winger JJ Peterka scored for the fourth consecutive game on Friday, helping his squad to a win 5-2 over the Devils. He bagged the team's fourth goal in the final minute of action with the net empty. The 22-year-old winger has sparked into life lately playing next to Tage Thompson, who had a big four-goal game on Friday. Thompson and Peterka share the team lead with 26 goals, and the latter has added 20 assists in 74 games during a career year. The two will look to shake the Maple Leafs next on Saturday.
Buffalo Sabres right wing JJ Peterka helped to set up two goals in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Blackhawks. He had an even-strength assist when Rasmus Dahlin opened the scoring early in the game and produced a power-play helper in the second frame on a Jeff Skinner marker. Peterka now has points from each of the last three games, and he's actually been hot for a while, registering five goals and seven assists across an 11-game stretch. It's been a great three-week run for Peterka, who notched just two points through his first seven outings of 2023-24.
