Next Monday night’s NHL schedule will feature the third game in the regular season series between the Buffalo Sabres and the Florida Panthers, teams that will face off at 06:00 pm CST in Sunrise, Florida. For the referred game, the bookies’ odds made the Panthers favorites to win; however, Brad Marchand’s recent injury is expected to have a negative impact on their performance.
Taking the odds into account, this game could turn into a fantastic opportunity for the Buffalo Sabres to keep competing for the top 4 spots in the Eastern Conference, especially after losing their five-game winning streak with their most recent 4-2 loss to the Montreal Canadiens. However, depending on Tage Thompson and Alex Tuch doesn’t appear to be a sustainable strategy to compete for the championship.
Meanwhile, the Florida Panthers lost their last three road games, during which they only faced teams from the Western Conference. In this matter, it’s concerning that they couldn’t score more than one goal during their most recent game against the Winnipeg Jets, and due to Marchand’s absence, they aren’t expected to show a significant improvement in offensive performance terms.
