The Buffalo Sabres will be at Madison Square Garden tonight to face the New York Rangers. The Sabres will be coming off of their mandatory bye week so rust could be an issue for them. In addition to that, the Sabres have been horrendous on the road, with a record of 5-13-6, and will have to face a Rangers team that has been dominating them. Buffalo is just 3-11 in their last 14 meetings with New York and 2-5 in their last 7 trips to MSG. The Rangers looked impressive with their 5-1 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday night, and have won 14 of their last 19 home games. Henrik Lundqvist is expected to be between the pipes for New York, so it will not be easy for Eichel and company to find the back of the net.
TONIGHT’S PICK: NEW YORK RANGERS
