The Buffalo Sabres had something to cheer about after losing their contest 4-2 against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Friday.With the loss, the Sabres clinched last place in the NHL, giving them the best opportunity at acquiring the first-overall selection in the upcoming NHL Entry Draft. The spot guarantees that they can take one of the top two projected players in the draft, either Connor McDavid or Jack Eichel. Buffalo still has one game left on the season, as they're scheduled to try to play the spoiler role against the Pittsburgh Penguins at home on Saturday. The Penguins squandered their latest opportunity to clinch a playoff spot by losing 3-1 to the New York Islanders on Friday night, setting the stage for a regular-season finale with two Eastern Conference playoff berths on the line. The Boston Bruins have a must-win game against the Tampa Bay Lightning, but the Penguins can put themselves out of reach if they defeat the Buffalo Sabres. The Ottawa Senators need one point against the Philadelphia Flyers to clinch.
