O'Reilly, Eichel lead Sabres over Devils 3-1

NEWARK, N.J. - Jack Eichel got his 24th goal and Ryan O'Reilly got his 21st to help the Buffalo Sabres beat the New Jersey Devils 3-1 on Tuesday night.

Johan Larsson also scored and Chad Johnson made 18 saves for the Sabres.

Both teams have been eliminated from playoff contention. The Sabres have been near the bottom of the Eastern Conference most of the season, and the Devils were eliminated on Saturday.

The Sabres are closing out strong, though. The win was their third straight, and they are 7-2-2 in their last 11 games.

The Devils have dropped three games in a row, dropping to 1-4-1 in the last six.

Cory Schneider made 15 stops for the Devils. Jacob Josefson scored late in the third period.
