Match Preview
There will be increased pressure on Lindy Ruff and the Buffalo Sabres this week, as they play for the second straight game at the KeyBank Center. The Sabres have fallen to defeats in each of their opening three games in the NHL this season, and there will be a desperate need to get their performance levels back on track.
Buffalo were last in action on Monday, as they were easily beaten by the Colorado Avalanche. Despite scoring in the opening period, the Sabres looked weak offensively throughout the duration of the game. Their only bright spark was the goal by Tage Thompson.
The Ottawa Senators will be the visitors to Buffalo this week, as they chase a second win of the season. Ottawa have suffered two defeats already this term, which includes a recent loss at the hands of the Nashville Predators.
The Senators looked short of ideas in the offensive areas throughout that clash, with their only goal being scored in the final frame. It was a night to forget for goalie Linus Ullmark, who allowed two goals from the 24 shots that he faced.
Senators vs. Sabres Picks
Both of these teams will have a point to prove following recent losses in the NHL. However, the head-to-head record could be challenging to overlook. Therefore, the preference is for a home win when making Senators vs. Sabres picks.
