Noah Östlund STEPS UP leading the Buffalo Sabres to Game 3 win in Boston

The Buffalo Sabres grab the series lead back from the Boston Bruins in their first road game of the playoffs, led by great first games by Noah Östlund and Alex Lyon. In Östlund's first career playoff game, he was creating chances, playing responsible defensive hockey, and sealed the win with as impressive an empty net goal as you'll ever see. Östlund's game re-ignites a line with Zach Benson and Josh Doan that had struggled in the first two games of the series. Meanwhile, in goal, Alex Lyon responded really well making big saves after he had allowed a soft goal in the second period. The exact mentality the Sabres need in goal in the playoffs was given to them by Lyon, who could be the Sabres starter for a while here if he doesn't have a bad game.

Plus, what could be different about Game 4 if Josh Norris practices and is available to the Sabres, given Östlund took his spot and ran with it in Game 3. Can the Sabres take full control of the series on Sunday???
