The NHL calendar for next Saturday night’s schedule will offer two Atlantic Divisional games, and one of the most uneven corresponds to the clash between Florida Panthers and Buffalo Sabres, which will take place at 06:00 pm CST. These teams have kept a totally opposite level throughout the season, so it isn’t shocking to have Florida Panthers as the absolute favorites to win this game.
In this regard, Florida Panthers are currently located in the top spot of the Atlantic Division, remarking as the only team in the Eastern Conference that was able to win their last 5 games in a row. In addition, the fact that Matthew Samoskevich and Aleksander Barkov were able to take the offensive leadership of this team during their most recent games was key to building that momentum that keeps them 9 points behind Washington Capitals.
On Buffalo Sabres’ case, this team hasn’t been able to recover the level they had just before the 4 Nations Face-Off, currently holding a terrible streak of 5 losses in a row that condemned them to stay at the bottom spot of the Eastern Conference. Nevertheless, they were able to find some offensive consistency during their most recent game against Tampa Bay Lightning, in which they scored 5 goals.
