BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Matt DAgostinis first goal of the season kept the Buffalo Sabres on a roll at home. DAgostinis rebound goal at 11:49 of the third period lifted the Sabres to their fifth straight home win, a 2-1 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Saturday night. "Were never going for pretty," DAgostini said. Linus Omark found Steve Ott to the right of Devils goaltender Cory Schneider. Otts shot rebounded into the crease and DAgostini poked it into the net. "We kinda talked about getting inside on them a little more," DAgostini said. "Myself, Ive been skating good and getting shots but mostly from the outside. Getting inside and getting to the net is where you get most goals in this league." Matt Moulson also scored a power-play goal and Ryan Miller made 21 saves for the Sabres. Michael Ryder scored his 13th goal of the season for New Jersey, which has lost back-to-back games in regulation. Buffalos struggling power play broke out of its slump. They entered the game with just one goal in their past 22 power plays and had gone three games without converting with the man advantage. "It was a good feeling to get a couple on the power play tonight and it was just a matter of taking the puck to the net," defenceman Tyler Myers said. "Both goals we had a guy take the puck in and we had guys crashing and banging away. Thats what we have to do if we want to score." The Devils took two penalties in three minutes late in the second period. New Jersey forced a turnover and had two players alone on Miller during the first penalty, but Miller stopped Adam Henriques shot. "I want to be there to make a difference," Miller said. "If I had to come up with a few saves here and there, and thats one of them, I was happy to make it." The save injected some energy into the home crowd, as well as the Sabres. "The guys definitely feel the energy," Miller said. "Its important to hear that the crowds behind you and thats definitely one of those instances." Buffalo scored on the next opportunity. With 31 seconds left in the second period, Moulson shot a rebound past Schneider for his 14th goal of the season. "We need to keep doing that," Moulson said. "Get pucks to the net, get guys driving to the net and get those dirty goals." It was Buffalos first regulation goal against New Jersey in more than 135 minutes of play going back to April 7, 2013. The Sabres took a too many men penalty 6:03 into the third period and Myers was penalized two minutes for an illegal hit to the head of Dainius Zubrus less than a minute later. "I wondered why that wasnt a five-minute major but I didnt get an explanation for that," Devils coach Peter DeBoer said. New Jersey had a 5-on-3 advantage and tied the game at the 7:46 mark when Ryder shot a loose puck over Millers shoulder. The Devils have scored a power-play goal in consecutive games after going without one for four games. With 10:03 gone in the third, Zubrus shoved Myers into the Sabres goal post and was called for interference. "You cant retaliate," DeBoer said. "He knows that. I think its too easy a target to pin the loss on him. I think the loss is pinned on the fact we couldnt score 5-on-5." On the ensuing power play, DAgostini backhanded a rebound past Schneider for his first goal in 26 games, dating back to April 18. "Now Im at one," DAgostini said. "As long as youre getting the chances, sooner or later theyll start falling for you. Hopefully Im on the other side now." Ott and Omark assisted on the goal, Omarks first point with the team since being acquired from the Edmonton Oilers on Dec. 19. Buffalo scored multiple power-play goals for just the second time this season, dating back to Oct. 8 against Tampa Bay. The Sabres got the games first power play when Steve Bernier interfered with Tyler Ennis in front of the Devils net. Myers had the best chance of the power play, but Schneider made the save with his blocker. Eight minutes into the second period, Brian Flynn was one-on-one with Schneider off a pass from Omark, but the Devils goaltender kicked away his backhand shot. Miller has won his past six home games, allowing just eight goals. The teams combined for just 11 shots on goal in the first period, with seven going to the Devils.

Now its Brady vs. Luck IV. Translation: After 16 matchups with Peyton Manning, Tom Brady will face Andrew Luck for the fourth time when the star quarterbacks lead the New England Patriots and Indianapolis Colts on Sunday night. At stake in this budding rivalry is a spot in Super Bowl XLIX (thats 49) — one year after Mannings Broncos beat Bradys Patriots in last seasons AFC championship game. The Patriots (13-4) are much more familiar with Manning. But his struggles in Denvers 24-13 AFC divisional game loss against Indianapolis on Sunday accentuated his recent decline. The Patriots beat the Baltimore Ravens 35-31, overcoming two 14-point deficits as Brady threw for three touchdowns and ran for one Saturday. The steadily rising Luck is more of a puzzle than Manning even though the Patriots are 3-0 against the third-year veteran with every win by more than 20 points. Still, their lack of experience against him — and his growth as a quarterback — could mean extra time for defenders in the film room and on the practice field getting ready for the strong-armed Luck and the Colts (13-5). In the National Football League you just prepare for your next opponent, Patriots defensive co-ordinator Matt Patricia said Monday. I dont think you worry about who is hard (to prepare for) or whos not. The Patriots prepared for both quarterbacks in the regular season. And they beat both by 22 points in consecutive games. They routed the Broncos 43-21 on Nov. 2 in Foxborough with Manning throwing for 438 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. The loss dropped him to 5-11 against Brady. After a bye, the Patriots went to Indianapolis and beat the Colts 42-20 on Nov. 16. Luck threw for 303 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. Peyton Manning or Andrew Luck, both of them present very difficult, extreme problems that you have to defend, Patricia said of the top picks in the NFL draft, both by the Colts,, in 1998 and 2012.dddddddddddd The Brady-Manning rivalry began with the Patriots second-year quarterbacks first NFL start, a 44-13 win over Mannings Colts on Sept. 30, 2001. Luck was a rookie when he first faced Brady on Nov. 18, 2012. And he played like one in New Englands 59-24 win. He threw three interceptions with two returned for touchdowns covering 87 and 59 yards. He also lost a fumble one play before Brady hit Rob Gronkowski with a 34-yard touchdown pass. Theyre good enough, Luck said after the game. They dont need those gifts. In his next game against the Patriots, he threw four interceptions in a 43-22 AFC divisional playoff loss last season, one week before Manning and Denver eliminated New England. Before this seasons loss to the Patriots, Manning said, You know youd better not be going three-and-out, turning the ball over, trying to figure out what theyre doing on defence. Because you know Brady & Co. are capable of putting up a lot of points and youre going to find yourselves behind, especially up there. Luck learned that quickly and repeatedly. Im just disappointed in myself, he said after the Patriots beat the Colts two weeks later. Its up to us to fix what we did wrong and move on. They did that, winning five of their remaining six regular-season games, albeit against a weak schedule, before beating Cincinnati and Denver in the playoffs. That last game ruined chances for another Brady-Manning reunion. The NFL is a very competitive league, Brady said Monday during his weekly appearance on WEEI radio. Peyton is an incredible player. Andrew Lucks a great player. Weve got one of the great young quarterbacks coming into our stadium, so weve got to be able to figure out a way to slow those guys down. The Patriots did that well enough to beat Manning 11 times in Bradys career. Now theyll try to go 4-0 against Luck. Its the National Football League. Its the playoffs, Patricia said. Every game is very difficult. ' ' '
