One of the less attractive games in the NHL calendar for next Tuesday, March 04th corresponds to the clash between Buffalo Sabres and San Jose Sharks, teams that will face at 06:00 pm CST in the KeyBank Center, a venue in which the Sabres are expected as the absolute favorites to win this game. However, it must be noted that most of their favoritism is based on the bad performance from the Sharks, so Buffalo’s victory isn’t granted.

In this regard, Buffalo Sabres are having a terrible performance, an affirmation that can easily be ratified when looking that one of the best players on the ice during their last home game against Montreal Canadiens (2-4 L) was Rasmus Dahlin, who shot 3 times on target. Additionally, even though Alex Tuch scored 1 goal per game against Anaheim, Carolina and Montreal, he’s far from being an offensive reference in the Atlantic Division.

On San Jose Sharks’ case, this team is totally eliminated from the competition, and even though they recently were able to force the overtime against Winnipeg Jets and Montreal Canadiens, their streak has extended to 8 losses in a row. The only positive news for them is that their offensive line showed a decent level during their last 2 away games, as they scored 3 goals per game.
