GDT: 11/1/16 - Wild vs Sabres - 7 PM CT / 2 AM Finland - FS-N

Lehner stole that game for Buffalo in the 2nd period. Could have been 4-1 easy.

Not really, he played like a NHL goalie. We just haven't seen many of those.

The Wild got outworked and out hustled in the 1st and 3rd periods. It doesn't matter how good or bad a team the other team is when that happens you'll lose more often than you'll win.

I don't think we got outworked/outhustled in the 3rd, we just couldn't get shots on net due to them collapsing in towards their net.

That's part of being outworked/outhustled. They did collapse to the net, but Wild didn't have net front to screen the goalie or redirect shots from the point. Not coming up with lose puck or board play. We had some zone time but it was a lot of perimeter passing. The rebounds were there, the players weren't most of the time for second shot.

That's not being outhustled or outworked. Both of those words means they were trying harder to win physically through exertion.
