Buffalo Sabres

Players to target: Jack Eichel, Zemgus Girgensons, and Jason Pominville

The top line for the Buffalo Sabres draws a solid home matchup against the Ottawa Senators' checking line, a group that ranks near the top of the league in terms of the most chances allowed and goals surrendered over the last six contests (3.67 goals per game yielded on the road). The third line allows more than 37 Scoring Chances For per 60 minutes and almost 15 High-Danger Chances per 60.

There could also be some power-play possibilities as the Senators' penalty kill is among the slate's worst tonight (74.6% on the road). Keep in mind, Buffalo scored early and often on the power play against Nashville, as Eichel piled up five assists in Saturday's 7-4 victory.

For tonight's tilt, the over/under is set at 5.5 goals with Buffalo a -120 favorite on the moneyline, so there should be a good amount of action. With this type of high-scoring game, there is no shame in stacking this game with whatever line Ottawa's Matt Duchene is on. Duchene has 14 points in his last 11 games while averaging over three shots a contest. The forward goes up against an almost equally inept penalty kill from Buffalo (77.6%).
