SABRES POWERPLAY needs fixing if they want to make a deep playoff run

In Game 1 against the Boston Bruins, the Sabres went 0 for 4 on the powerplay, which now makes it 0 for 26 in the month of April. The Sabres can beat the Bruins without a powerplay this series, but if they advance, they will absolutely need it to give them something to make a deep playoff run. Zone exits and faceoffs appear to be the biggest issues with their man advantage. Is there a fix for either? Is it nuts to throw Josh Dunne out there just for the faceoff? Sneaky Joe explores what they could do that they haven't tried yet.

Plus, what the Sabres need to do better in Game 2 against the Bruins, including getting to the middle of the ice more, and hopefully seeing a more comfortable Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen.

And whether or not the Sabres should think of replacing someone for Noah Ostlund, and whether the Bruins should go with Henri Jokiharju.
