The Buffalo Sabres return home tonight after a successful 2-game road trip to host the bottom dwelling Florida Panthers. The Panthers have owned the Sabres in the past but that was then and this is now. Buffalo is an impressive 11-3-2 at KeyBank Center and have won 3 of their last 4 games. Florida’s away record of 5-8-2 is nothing to write home about and they are winless in their last 4 on the road. The Sabres’ Jack Eichel, Sam Reinhart, and Jeff Skinner have been on a tear and the home team has won 7 of the last 9 meetings.
TONIGHT’S PICK: BUFFALO SABRES
