    Pens vs Sabres, Friday, puck it check in

    Huge game for Buffalo, winners of 5 straight. Pittsburgh will be on B2B, thinking the line will be even or Buffalo small favs of like -115, -120.

    Im 7-1 attending Sabres games and will be there, with most of those wins coming when they were brutally bad, so tangibles go Buffalos way .

    Whats Pittsburgh look like in their B2B? Sabres smoked em 6-2 last time in Buffalo which was the last loss for the Pens before they won 12 in a row

    I think the line will still favor Pens. The public LOVES the pens.

    Then again I think what happens tonight against the Isles will be a factor as well. By the time we get to Buffalo it will be the Pens 3rd game in 4 days (also 4th game in 6 days, with a record of 11-3 in this situation) and they will be on the B2B. Tonight should be a physical and emotional game which could put the Pens in a bad spot Friday. I can't see them playing Fleury tonight against the Isles, as they crushed him on Tuesday and in the interest of having him fresh for Buffalo.

    I'm also hugely superstitious when it comes to in-attendance records, as I am (i think) 9-0 or 10-0 this year at Pens home games. All signs point for a Buffalo win, but, as I said I'd like to watch tonight's game and wait for goalie announcements on Friday.

    All that being said, I will probably stick to the O5.5, O1.5 [1st] [2nd]. Pens OVER is 4-1 in last 4 eastern conf games, 8-1-1 in last 10 road games, 5-1 on 0 days rest, and 5-1 road games against a team with a winning record. I know Buffalo have been UNDER whores as of late, but there is no doubt about the Pens ability to put it in the net and Buffalo is going to have to do the same to take a win.

    Thanks for thoughts. No one will have to tell a story on which side to take. Penguins will be at great value while the Sabres are the hotter team, rested, at home, and more desperate. Should be a great game. Hoping Fleury plays tonight and backup vs Buffalo

    Okay i was wrong, Fleury is in net tonight! I cant see the Isles getting the best of him twice. Hoping tonight ends up being an old fashioned pens ass whooping!

    Crosby took a puck to the face and left the game too. Probably another concussion Poor Sid just can't catch a break. No Crosby obviously Buffalo is the play tomorrow if they weren't already.

    Hmm. Well, that was interesting. At least I went 2/3. Pens O1.5 [2nd] has been constant money.

    hmmm....come on what's the line gonna be ? When's the last time we saw the pens a dog ?

    EDIT: 3am - just checked line...only line not up yet out of all the games....hahahahhaha...bookies know the public will jump all over the pens as a dog, no ?

    I'm wondering if they release a weird line like BUF -110 PIT -110...something like that

    It's like Pitt had that great run.... and now they'll just sputter to end the season.

    wonder if the overs will keep coming, tho.

    Sabres have owned everyone in their last 5 games including Washington and Rangers in their own buildings. No matter what the line is, it will be easy to play either side.

    Erhoff out for Sabres, how much do the Buffalo experts here think this affects them and/or the overall scoring?

    I think Buffalo wins this one but I can't see the Pens losing 3 in a row. With the Flyers only 2 points back of them this game is important to the Pens also. I think I'll just take Buffalo TT and hope Pittsburg drops a third straight. BOL everyone.

    It obviously hurts but Weber has played quite a bit this year and will fill in a lesser role. Keep in mind the Sabres have steam rolled their last 5 games by at least 2 goals. Their offense has been great and Miller has been the best in the league during this stretch.
