The Boston Bruins finished 2022 with an overtime loss to the Buffalo Sabres, dropping to 18-0-3 at home this season.
David Pastrnak recorded his 25th of the season and 57th of the caldendar year to put him up with Connor McDavid and Auston Matthews among the league's best goal scorers.
Patrice Bergeron and Brad Marchand also scored for the Bruins.
But Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen certainly outplayed Jeremy Swayman in net, which proved to be the difference.
Buffalo's goals came from Tage Thompson, Alex Tuch (including the OT winner) and Dylan Cozens.
Up next: Monday's Winter Classic against the Pittsburgh Penguins at Fenway Park.
