Jeff Skinner scored at 1:50 of overtime and the Sabres beat the Rangers on Friday night.
J.J. Peterka and Jordan Greenway also scored for the Sabres, who recovered after giving up a 2-0 lead to improve to 3-0-1 in their last four games. Devon Levi made 32 saves in his NHL debut to help Buffalo pull five points behind Pittsburgh for the second wild card in the Eastern Conference.
"We were fortunate to get a couple of goals, but we didn't play well," Rangers coach Gerard Gallant said."We had one line show up tonight and play hard every shift. That was it and we were fortunate to get a point." Levi, who played at Northeastern University the past two seasons, signed a three-year entry-level contract on March 17.
Greenway made it 2-0 at 7:39 of the second when he took a pass from Casey Mittelstadt up the right side and one-handed a shot past Halak for his fourth.
