Match Preview

New Jersey is five points behind the eighth spot in the conference. This gap can be narrowed if the visitors beat Buffalo. Meanwhile, the hosts are chasing a playoff spot, but so far, the gap to the top-8 is not closing.

Buffalo lost to Ottawa in the last round. The Sabres' defense is not considered ideal - they have conceded 15 goals in three games. Regular defensive breakdowns prevent the team from getting closer to the top eight. The chances for the playoffs remain, but consistent victories are necessary.

New Jersey is on an excellent run. The club has secured victories against the Islanders and Toronto, scoring a total of 9 goals. The defense in the recent rounds looks solid, almost not allowing the opponent to create anything. There are five points to the top eight, which can be neutralized if they continue their winning streak.

Probable lineups:

Buffalo: Luukkonen - Byram, Dahlin - Tuch, Thompson, Peterka

New Jersey: Allen - Marino, Bahl - Bratt, Hischier, Meier

The hosts will be without Samuelsson - a reliable defender. Forwards Rousek and Jost will miss the match. The visitors will be missing Bastian, Lazar, and McLeod - agile forwards with the ability to make a productive pass to a moving partner. Defenders Siegenthaler, Foote, McDermid, and Hamilton will also not play.

Buffalo Sabres New Jersey Devils Prediction

New Jersey is on a good run, scoring important points. Not far from the playoff zone, chances to make it into the playoffs remain. They will be facing Buffalo, which often makes mistakes in defense. Therefore, the visitors are considered favorites. But we will pay attention to the fact that the "devils" score little in the final segments of the matches, which is why the third period is unlikely to be productive.
