BUFFALO, N.Y. — Jeff Skinner scored twice, including the go-ahead goal, and added an assist, and the Buffalo Sabres responded from their most embarrassing loss of the season with a 9-3 rout of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Tage Thompson also had a goal and two assists and captain Kyle Okposo scored twice, two nights following a 9-4 loss to Columbus when the team was booed off the ice and fans chanted "Fire Donnie" in reference to coach Don Granato. Auston Matthews, Calle Jarnkrok and Max Domi scored for Toronto, which lost consecutive games in regulation for just the second time this season.
