Tuch scored a goal on two shots, dished a power-play assist, blocked three shots and added two hits in Monday's 6-5 win over the Blackhawks.
Tuch helped the Sabres make their final push Monday. He scored the game-tying goal with 2:14 left in the third period, then helped out on Tage Thompson's game-winner with 12 seconds left in the contest. It's been a tough stretch lately for Tuch, who entered Monday with just seven points in his last 18 outings despite remaining in a top-line role. The winger is up to 28 points, 103 shots on net, 37 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in 35 appearances.
