VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) -- Robin Lehner and the Buffalo Sabres have gotten pretty stingy lately.

Lehner made 30 saves for his second straight shutout and the Sabres blanked the Vancouver Canucks 4-0 on Thursday night.

"We didn't give them too much defensively," Sabres coach Phil Housley said. "We were really tight to our net and we tried to protect Robin as best we could. And when we needed a save, Robin was big tonight."

"We bent but we didn't break and that's about sticking to the plan."

Sam Reinhart, Nicholas Baptist, Kyle Okposo and Johan Larsson scored for the Sabres, who won three straight games for the first time this season. Buffalo also shut out Edmonton 5-0 Tuesday night.
