Buffalo at Atlanta

Buffalo has dropped five straight and looks to get healthy against the Thrashers. The Sabres' recent problem has been scoring and Atlanta is a team that gives up points. The Thrashers are allowing 3.3 goals per game allowed on the season (3.6 over their last five). Favorites off three straight losses vs. a team off a loss win 72% of the time (128-49 over the last five seasons). Atlanta is 18-31 the past two seasons after allowing 4+ goals in their last game and we like Buffalo to get the needed win here.
