BUFFALO, N. Louis Lipps Womens Jersey .Y. -- For once, Buffalo Sabres coach Dan Bylsma couldnt complain about his teams lack of offense.Anders Nilsson stopped 46 shots, plus three more in the shootout, to stymie the Sidney Crosby-led Pittsburgh Penguins.And one goal in regulation, plus minor league call-up Cal OReillys shootout tally, were just enough for the offensively challenged Sabres to pull out a 2-1 victory Saturday night.Well, it doesnt really matter at this point in time who its against, Bylsma said. But its a win we desperately needed and against one of the better teams, if not the best team, in the league.William Carrier scored in regulation for Buffalo, which hasnt scored more than twice in 10 straight games, dating to a 3-1 win at Winnipeg on Oct. 30.In snapping an 0-4-2 skid, Buffalos victory came on the heels of a 4-1 loss to Tampa Bay on Friday after which Sabres forward Evander Kane expressed frustration about his teams lack of offense. He sarcastically said Buffalo had become the joke of the NHL because opponents needed only two goals to beat them.The difference on Saturday was the Penguins were unable to score twice.It took Pittsburgh 31 shots before Crosby beat Nilsson with a power-play goal to tie the game with 14:14 remaining in regulation.Its just one of those games where you leave feeling like you deserve better, said Crosby, who scored his 12th of the season and the 350th goal of his career. Ultimately, we have to find a way to bury a few chances. ... But he made some good saves. You have to give him credit.Pittsburgh has alternated losses and wins over its past five games since a 9-2-2 start, and was coming off a 3-2 overtime win at the New York Islanders on Friday night.The Penguins also lost to Buffalo for the first time in 10 meetings, since a 4-2 loss at Pittsburgh on April 23, 2013.Nilsson was solid in making just his second start in 11 games, and first since a 41-save performance in a 2-1 overtime loss to New Jersey on Nov. 11.Nilssons toughest saves came during overtime.A minute in, he kicked out his right pad to stop Phil Kessels drive from the right circle. A few seconds later, Nilsson squeezed his right arm just in time to trap Trevor Daleys shot.His best save came with 2:55 left in overtime, when he kicked out his left pad at the last moment to foil Kris Letang on a breakaway.After stopping Crosby and Evgeni Malkin on Pittsburghs first two shootout attempts, Nilsson sealed the win by stopping Letangs attempt to beat him through the legs.Obviously, they do have some very esteemed guys and some very good players in their lineup, Nilsson said. I tried to be as patient as possible and let them make the first move and try to make the save. And today I got lucky and was able to do that.OReilly scored on Buffalos third attempt by breaking up the right wing before cutting to the front of the net and beating Marc-Andre Fleury with a snap shot to the glove side.The goal came on the same day OReilly was called up from Buffalos AHL affiliate in Rochester. And it wasnt lost on Bylsma that OReilly has an established reputation for being a shootout specialist.OReilly has scored on six of 13 shootout attempts, with three of them game-deciding goals.Fleury was otherwise solid in stopping 32 shots through overtime.He was particularly sharp 2 minutes into the third period, when he got his glove up to stop Kanes shot from the left circle. Fleury then got across to his left to bat down Brian Giontas off-balance shot from the slot.Game notes Crosby has 15 goals and 50 points in 32 career games against Buffalo. ... Penguins forward Patric Hornqvist missed his second game with a concussion. Coach Mike Sullivan said Hornqvist skated on his own earlier in the day, but there was no timetable yet for his return. ... Aside from OReilly, the Sabres recalled forward Cole Schneider from Rochester. OReilly was the AHLs scoring leader with 18 points (three goals, 15 assists), and Schneider was tied for second with 17 (seven goals, 10 assists). ...

Blackwood, 28, has played the last three seasons in the San Diego Padres system, including the past two summers with Class AA San Antonio of the Texas League. HOUSTON -- Rangers right-hander Yu Darvish has experienced his fair share of memorable moments at Minute Maid Park, but Texas manager Jeff Banister isnt looking for Darvish to flirt with a perfect game when Texas attempts to claim the rubber match against the Astros on Sunday.Darvish famously opened the 2013 season in Houston by retiring the first 26 batters before surrendering a seeing-eye single through the box to Marwin Gonzalez with two outs in the ninth inning. Darvish departed that 7-0 victory with 14 strikeouts and one hit allowed over 8 2/3 innings and is 4-3 with a 3.41 ERA in 10 career starts against Houston.This season, Darvish (2-3, 3.29 ERA) is methodically working his way back from Tommy John surgery. He landed on the 15-day disabled list following his lone appearance against the Astros on June 8, surrendering one run on three hits and four walks with seven strikeouts in five innings before departing with tightness in his right shoulder.Darvish has been good, not great, since returning from the DL. He lost Tuesday in Baltimore after allowing three solo home runs over 6 1/3 innings while walking just one batter and recording nine strikeouts.He needs to build on some of the things that hes been doing, what he did last outing, Banister said of Darvish. Obviously you take away the home runs ... this is a special pitcher for us. We look for big things from Yu so give him an opportunity to go out there and pitch for us and give us an opportunity to get oout of here with a couple wins. L.C. Greenwood Youth Jersey. The Astros (57-53) counter Sunday with rookie right-hander Joe Musgrove, who makes his first career start after delivering a rousing debut Tuesday night against the organization that drafted him, the Toronto Blue Jays.Musgrove pitched 4 1/3 scoreless innings and struck out eight batters in relief to match a major league record. He faces Texas (64-47) needing to pitch effectively for a team feeling the pressure of an offensive collapse and a shot at a division title quickly slipping away.That frustration bubbled over Saturday night when second baseman Jose Altuve earned a seventh-inning ejection arguing balls and strikes with plate umpire Alan Porter. Altuve has shown increasing frustration with varying umpires strike zones of late and his emotions boiled over before manager A.J. Hinch could sprint in from the dugout.He knows the strike zone as well as anybody, and he didnt appreciate the call and took matters into his own hands, Hinch said. I think it symbolizes how important these games are and how much we are grinding mentally and physically to try to get the momentum back in our direction.He garners as much respect as anybody in the league. He never argues unless he is right. He was right in my opinion. I know Alan was giving him as much time as he could and ultimately decided to run him.
