It is a crucial season for Buffalo. The Sabres have underachieved in recent years but made some progress in the last regular season, although one point was not enough to make the playoffs. We expect them to be even more productive, but their debut in the current regular season has not been the most successful. Buffalo have taken just two points from their first four games, beating Tampa Bay 3:2 in extra time, and have lost their other three matches in regulation time, leaving them at the end of the Eastern Conference standings.
New York Islanders
The Islanders reached the playoffs in the regular season, but their Cup campaign lasted exactly six games before they lost 4:2 to Carolina. In the off-season, the Islanders management focused on extending the contracts of key players, but there were no new additions to the lineup. Lane Lambert's team started the new season with a 3:2 win over Buffalo, followed by a 1:0 victory over Arizona and a 5:4 overtime loss to New Jersey the day before. New York is now sixth in the Eastern Conference standings.
Expert Betting Tips
The Islanders have made a great start to the current regular season, scoring points in every game. They face a tough trip, which they have traditionally misplayed, losing to Buffalo in their last five in-person meetings. The Yellow-Blues have had a disastrous start to the season, and they are at the end of the Eastern Conference standings with just two points from four games.
Do not expect a high-scoring performance. We have already seen that Buffalo is not in the best shape, so they cannot play fantastic hockey. It would be naive to expect the Islanders to play an open style of hockey, as they are one of the most pragmatic teams in the league.
