There are only two games scheduled tonight before the All-Star break and the one that looks interesting is the Buffalo Sabres hosting the Carolina Hurricanes. The Canes are hot, riding a 6-game winning streak, but so are the Sabres. Buffalo has won 5 of their last 6 and will be well-rested, having not played since Saturday. On the other hand, Carolina will be playing back-to-back games after a tough battle with the Kings last night. The Sabres can score. They are averaging 3.8 goals per game, which is #1 in the league, and will be a home dog tonight. Consider the Western New Yorkers.
TONIGHT’S PICK: BUFFALO SABRES
