The New York Rangers have lost 5 straight and will have to face a red hot Buffalo Sabres team tonight when they host the Western New Yorkers at MSG. The Sabres are off to one of their best starts ever, at 8-1-1, and the young upstarts are expected to have Carter Hutton between the pipes. Hutton is a perfect 6-0 and has a GAA of only 1.65. The Rangers are expected to counter with Hendrik Lundqvist, who is 1-3 with a GAA of 3.57. Edge Sabres. New York has won 6 of the last 7 meetings with Buffalo but this is not the Sabres of old.

The Pittsburgh Penguins will be playing back-to-back games tonight when they visit Amalie Arena for a match-up with the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Penguins have lost 2 straight and will be without superstar Evgeni Malkin. The Lightning have not been clicking like they are capable of and it’s just a matter of time before they do.
