The Buffalo Sabres ripped off ten straight wins but now find themselves in a 3-game losing streak. Tonight they will return home from a 3-game road trip to host their hated rival, the Toronto Maple Leafs. Buffalo will be playing back-to-back games, after falling to Nashville last night, but fatigue is never an issue when they face the Leafs. Toronto is hot, winning four in a row, and are a force on the road with a record of 10-3-0. Buffalo counters with a stellar home record of 9-2-1 and they are 6-0 in their last 6 at KeyBank Center. The Home team is 26-8 in the last 34 meetings between these two clubs and the Sabres are a big home dog in this one.
TONIGHT’S PICK: BUFFALO SABRES
