Game Preview
The Montreal Canadiens come into this clash on Monday sitting second in the Atlantic Division standings after going 4-2-0 so far this term. However, they will need to bounce back to winning form following a defeat in their latest outing against the New York Rangers.
The Canadiens paid a heavy price after switching off defensively in the closing stages of that clash after conceding three times in the final frame. Nick Suzuki, Noah Dobson, and Juraj Slafkovsky scored the goals in the defeat for the Habs.
Meanwhile, the Buffalo Sabres come into this clash in excellent recent form. Despite starting the season with three straight defeats, they have since won each of their last two to climb up to sixth in the Atlantic Division standings.
Their most recent win was a shock 3-0 success against the Florida Panthers. Josh Doan was the standout star in the success, as he netted twice. The other goal in the victory was netted by Owen Power.
Sabres vs. Canadiens Picks
The Sabres appear to have turned a corner in recent weeks after winning their last two. However, their poor winning record on the road against the Habs makes it challenging to overlook the prospect of a home win when making Sabres vs. Canadiens picks.
