With the Buffalo Sabres visiting the New York Islanders tonight both teams are playing very well. The Sabres are 4-0-1 in their last 5 games with the Islanders going 4-1 in their last 5, the latest being a 6-0 beat down of the Detroit Redwings.
Head to head this year the Sabres have a 2-1 edge, with both wins coming at home.
Both teams should be well rested in this game. But with the Islanders not playing since Tuesday I can see them coming up a bit rusty and can see Buffalo hopping on the chances they see early. Buffalo is 20-2-3 when scoring first and 15-1-5 in one goal games. That’s why my pick is;
Buffalo -125
