Buffalo Blanks Chicago in Rescheduled Game

Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen made 19 saves for his second consecutive shutout and the Buffalo Sabres beat the Chicago Blackhawks 3-0 on Thursday night in a game moved back a day because of snow.

 

Zemgus Girgensons, JJ Peterka and Rasmus Dahlin scored.

 

Luukkonen had his third career NHL shutout, also beating San Jose 3-0 on Monday. His best save came with 5:45 remaining when he stopped Reese Johnson from close range on a 2-on-1 opportunity.

 

Arvid Soderblom made 28 saves for struggling Chicago. The Blackhawks have two victories in their last 11 games.

 

The Blackhawks host the New York Islanders tonight.
