(NHL) Sabres (BUF) vs. Red Wings (DET),
Money Line: -140.00 Red Wings (DET) (Home)
Result: Win
The Sabres are coming into this game with a 25-32-6 record this season and they have not been playing well in their recent games. They are coming off of a 3-2 win at home against the Oilers in their last game, but they have lost 6 of their last 7 games and their defense has been awful in these. They have allowed 4+ goals in 6 of their last 7 games, and their offense has not been good either, scoring 2 goals or less in 3 of their last 4 games and just 2 goals total in their last 2 games alone. They have also been awful on the road recently as they have lost their last 7 straight road games, allowing 4+ goals in their last 5. They are going up against a Red Wings team that is 30-28-6 this season and they have been awful in their recent games. They have lost their last 6 straight games and have slipped right down to 7th place in the Atlantic, but they are still only 4 points out of the Wild Card and they are going to be pushing to snap their losing streak here. They are coming off of a 2-1 loss on the road against the Senators in their last game, but they played much better in that game and will be hungry to bounce back at home in a game they need to win. Their offense has not been good recently, but the Sabres give up a lot of goals so this is a great spot for the Red Wings to pick themselves up out of their slump, especially since they will be the hungrier team here with the Sabres coming off of a win. The Red Wings will win this game at home.
