Behind The Bench: Power play sparks Sabres' strong start

The Buffalo Sabres are 3-0-1 in their first four games thanks, in large part, to their stellar production on the power play. Buffalo has scored eight goals with the man advantage in 15 opportunities.

Also on this week's Behind The Bench, a look at the team's forward lines—which ones are clicking and which isn't?

You can read Bill Hoppe's work at his Buffalo Hockey Beat blog and at BuffaloNews.com. Follow him on Twitter at @BillHoppeNHL.
