One of the NHL games that will open next Sunday calendar corresponds to the clash between Winnipeg Jets and Buffalo Sabres, which will take place at 01:00 pm CST. This game has Winnipeg as the favorite team to win after showing one of the most effective performances throughout the regular season. However, the Jets aren’t still considered as one of the biggest contenders for the championship.
Despite that fact, Winnipeg Jets converted into the first team in the Western Conference to get 100 points this season, currently holding a 48-18-4 record and remarking as the best offensive line in the Western Conference with 243 goals scored. Additionally, their defensive line has also proven to be one of the best in the league after only conceding 165 goals this season.
Meanwhile, Buffalo Sabres haven’t been able to leave the bottom spot of the Eastern Conference, currently noting as one of the teams that haven’t been able to win any game in regulation time during their most recent 5 games. Most of those bad numbers are explained by the terrible defensive performance they’ve had this season, as they currently are the worst defensive in the Atlantic Division with 241 conceded goals.
