Edmonton Oilers vs Buffalo Sabres betting picks

[Julio88]

This will be a fantastic match between two excellent teams. The Sabres want to step up and take control of this game on their home ice while the Oilers try to recover from a difficult loss. The forward unit should carry the puck into the attacking third and create easy shots with efficient puck mobility for the Sabres against an Oilers defense that allows just about a few goals every game. With the defensive structure blocking shots in the middle of the ice and restricting shots on goal, the Sabres should be able to limit the Oilers' offensive output. The Sabres ought to prevail.

The Oilers are the favorites to win this game, and for good reason. They have a more talented lineup, led by Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. The Oilers also have a good track record against the Sabres, winning six of their last seven games against them.

Both the Oilers and Sabres have good defenses. The Oilers allowed 2.89 goals per game last season, while the Sabres allowed 3.29 goals per game. I expect both teams to play a tight game, so the under 6.5 goals is a good bet.
