WINNIPEG, Manitoba -- Kyle Okposo came through with his first multi-goal game with Buffalo Sabres, and Robin Lehner shut down the Winnipeg Jets to get the Sabres a needed win.Okposo scored twice, Brian Gionta also had a goal, and Lehner made 37 saves to lead the Sabres to a 3-1 win over the Jets on Sunday.The Jets outshot Buffalo 38-28, including 17-7 when in the third when they spoiled Lehners shutout bid.I thought we did a really good job angling our third guy when they were able to come out of the zone, Okposo said. I thought we did a good job shutting their rush down, shutting their chances down.Sabres coach Dan Bylsma likes the way his team has regrouped after a 4-3 shootout loss in Philadelphia on Thursday, when they gave up a three-goal lead in the third.I do think we have to have learned a lesson from the Philadelphia game, he said.Nickolaj Ehlers scored for Winnipeg. Michael Hutchinson gave up the three goals on 15 shots before he was replaced by Connor Hellebuyck late in the second period. Hellebuyck stopped all 10 shots he faced.Penalty killing was a big part of the win, with the Sabres giving up six power plays to Winnipegs one, including two in the third period when the Jets attempted a comeback.Okposo came out of the penalty box in the first, then regained control of his own blocked shot at 10:51, driving it over Hutchinsons shoulder.Gionta made it 2-0 on a loose puck less than two minutes later in the first. Okposo beat Hutchinson again with 6:01 left in the second -- this time high on his stick side -- to make it 3-0.That was enough for Jets coach Paul Maurice, who brought in Hellebuyck.It is what it is, Hutchinson said. You try and help the team win. It doesnt matter who is in the net every given night.Ehlers finally scored for Winnipeg at 4:49 of the third.The Jets were playing for the fourth game in six days, though they had a day off after back to back wins -- including a 1-0 shutout against Colorado on Friday when Hutchinson posted his first shutout of the season.Lehner was impenetrable through two periods, although the Sabres gave up four power plays through the first 40 minutes.Obviously their goalie was good but we had some good chances that we could have put in, Ehlers said. Hopefully the next game they go in.Winnipeg stayed out of the penalty box until early in the third but Buffalo had trouble getting off a shot on the ensuing man advantage until there were only a few seconds left.Game notesThe Jets and Sabres pulled off a major trade last season, but only two players involved were on the ice Sunday. Last February, the Jets got goalie Drew Stafford and Joel Armia, defenseman Tyler Myers and draft picks for forward Evander Kane, defenseman Zach Bogosian and goalie Jason Kasdorf. Stafford, Myers and Kane all sat out Sunday with injuries.UP NEXT:Sabres: At Minnesota on Tuesday night.Jets: Host Washington on Tuesday night.Anthony Sherman Chiefs Jersey .

The Ducks Ryan Getzlaf and Nick Ritchie are both day-to-day after receiving hard hits during Tuesday nights 4-0 win over the Los Angeles Kings. Anaheim coach Randy Carlyle scratched both before Wednesday nights 5-1 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins, and neither participated in Thursdays optional skate.Getzlaf sustained an upper-body injury but Ritchies condition generates the greater concern. The 20-year-old left winger left Tuesday nights game late in the second period after Kings defenseman Tom Gilbert hit him in the head while checking him into the glass. Ritchie underwent the leagues concussion protocol and Gilbert received a three-game suspension Thursday for his hit, which did not result in a penalty. Carlyle said both forwards will skate in Friday mornings practice.Ritchie and Getzlaf joined right winger Corey Perry to form Anaheims top line. But against Pittsburgh, center Antoine Vermette replaced Getzlaf while Rickard Rakell moved into Ritchies spot at left wing. Expect the same formation if neither Getzlaf nor Ritchie is available Friday night.The Ducks hope to avoid the kind of ragged start that sabotaged them during their past two home games, Wednesday nights 5-1 loss and a 4-0 defeat to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Oct. 28.Its inexcusable, defenseman Cam Fowler said Wednesday night. Two stinkers in a row at home is not good for a team that expects high things, like we do. Collectively as a group, were just not there defensively.The Coyotes, meanwhile, missed foour regulars in Thursday nights 3-2 shootout win over the Nashville Predators.dddddddddddd Center Martin Hanzal and left winger Tobias Rieder missed their first games of the season because of lower-body injuries. The pair joins defenseman Michael Stone and goalie Michael Smith among the injured. Rieder remains questionable against Anaheim but none of the other three are expected to play.Replacing Hanzal against Nashville was center Christian Dvorak, who was recalled from Tucson in the AHL and scored his first NHL goal Thursday night. The 20-year-old Dvorak joins a young core that features forwards Max Domi and Anthony Duclair. Last season, Dvorak amassed 52 goals and 121 points in 59 games for the OHLs London Knights.Arizona received some good news on Wednesday, when Smith skated for the first time since injuring his left leg in the second game of the season Oct. 18 against the Ottawa Senators. Smith remains week-to-week.He looks fine out there skating, Coyotes coach Dave Tippett told the Arizona Republic. But there are just a couple movements that hes going to have to be able to get to before he starts stopping pucks.Despite the injuries, the Coyotes overcame their 1-5 start by winning three of their next four, reinforcing General Manager John Chaykas optimism.The effort and work ethic of our group, and the battle weve shown is good to see, Chayka told the Republic. You know you have a character group thats going to push through this. Theres still lots of expectation that this is a good group of players, and theyre going to turn it around. ' ' '
