Capital One Arena will be the venue tonight when the Washington Capitals host the Buffalo Sabres. Both teams are still alive in the playoff hunt so tonight should be a hard fought battle. The Capitals fell to the Rangers last night and have now lost 3 of their last 4. They are also 0-4 in their last 4 when playing with zero days rest and just 1-6 in their last 7 home games. Buffalo is still riding high after Monday’s road victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs, and it’s a given, the Sabres get it done on the road. Buffalo is 20-10-2 away from KeyBank Center and have won both meetings with the Caps this year.
TONIGHT’S PICK: BUFFALO SABRES
