  "account": "Buffalo Sabres forward Josh Norris ended a six-game goalless streak, scoring twice as the team defeated the Columbus Blue Jackets 5-2 on Friday night. Norris' two goals helped Buffalo secure their fourth win in five games. The Sabres' defense also shined, with defenseman Owen Power contributing three assists. Jack Quinn, Rasmus Dahlin, and Josh Doan each scored for Buffalo, while Jet Greaves made 32 saves. For Columbus, Kent Johnson and Zach Werenski scored, and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen kept the Sabres at bay with 24 saves. The Blue Jackets had lost three straight games away from home. Quinn put the Sabres ahead at 6:50 of the first period, while Johnson leveled the score with 4:00 left in the period. Norris marked his return to scoring with a goal at 1:50 of the second period, followed by Dahlin's one-timer four and a half minutes later. Norris added his second goal at 9:46, making it 4-1. Doan sealed the deal with a power-play goal with 1:07 remaining in the period. The Blue Jackets' Sean Monahan left the game in the second period due to a lower-body injury and did not return.",
