BUF Sabres vs NY Rangers Prediction: expect a lot of pucks

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on February 23. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Buffalo

In the last five games, Buffalo has managed to earn eight points. They managed to defeat Boston, Nashville, New Jersey and Columbus. However, the winning streak was interrupted by the Predators, taking revenge on their own ice. Of course, against the backdrop of the last defeat, the pause was quite timely. After the setback, they could completely fall apart and return to their previous conditioning. And so the Sabres made preparations for the resumption and now will try to finish at least not last in the conference.

Rangers

Peter Laviolette will say goodbye to the Rangers if he doesn't lead the team to the playoffs. With one of the best lineups in the NHL, the manager can't get it in order, so the Rangers are content with just 11th place in the Eastern Conference standings. Of course, there is still a chance for a comeback. Eighth-place Detroit is only three points ahead, which can be won back in the near future. Going into the break, New Yorkers on the road were able to defeat Columbus with a score of 4:3, but a game earlier unexpectedly lost to Pittsburgh - 2:3.

Expert Betting Tips

The Rangers have more chances to win, but after the break, and even with their stands, Buffalo is able to fight back. That's why we suggest staying away from the outcomes here, and looking at the performance. In seven of the last ten games with Buffalo, the standard total over was easily reached. The Sabres have good offensive potential, but the defense is in chaos. The Rangers play an open hockey on the road, and the bookmakers' total over has been in the last four games. Based on this, we believe that the rivals will have no problem putting six accurate shots on goal.
