The NHL Atlantic Division has had a disastrous overall performance at the beginning of the season, so next Thursday night is expected to be revenge time for the teams that integrate it. With this goal in mind, the game between the Buffalo Sabres and Boston Bruins can be expected to be one of the most spectacular, as it will be a must-win game for both franchises.
In this matter, it’s worth noting that the winner of this game will get very close to the Eastern Conference playoff spots, so the Boston Bruins are expected to take advantage of playing at home to earn their second victory in a row. Nonetheless, it’s a little bit concerning that players like Elias Lindholm and Pavel Zacha haven’t been able to find shooting consistency, as they were only able to take one shot on goal during their 5-2 victory over the Islanders.
Meanwhile, the Buffalo Sabres have been showing a big dependency on Rasmus Dahlin and Tage Thompson throughout the season; however, during their 3-4 overtime loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets, the Sabres were finally able to score three goals without them participating in the scoring. That said, players like Josh Doan, Alex Tuch, and Ryan McLeod are expected to increase their effectiveness to allow the team to convert into one of the most competitive in the league.
