The red-hot Washington Capitals couldn't put away the Buffalo Sabres Saturday night in Buffalo, and Thomas Vanek made them pay.

For the Sabres, who hadn't won at home yet this season before Saturday, it could end up being the lift they need to salvage their season.

Vanek's overtime game-winner made a winner out of Ryan Miller in his first game back from injury, and the Sabres finally won a game at HSBC Arena, beating the Capitals 3-2.
