Torn here. Sabres have been terrible at home, Panthers have been great, bookies like the Sabres here. What gives? I know Buffalo will win at home at some point, but they have two more forwards out for this game (Leino suspended, Gerbe concussion), making that 8 regulars out tonight.
Sabres have scored in some games at home, but the lack of veterans (especially at the blue line) have shown that they can not protect a lead, at all.
Everyone knows that to continually bet a team knowing that they will eventually or "should" win will only lose you money.
It doesn't matter Florida is on a back to back - the last few teams on a back to back have outskated the Sabres in the first period at home.
Take the Panthers at a great price +125 to +130 here knowing you're getting the better playing team as of now, and the Sabres are crippled with injuries.
3* for me.
