Buffalo at Atlanta

The Atlanta Thrashers have done a good job on the scoring end, but their lack of intensity and commitment on the defensive end of the ice has led to five OVERs in their last six games. Overall, Atlanta has allowed 4 or more goals in six of the nine they have played this season. It hasn't been much prettier for the Sabres who have allowed 4 or more in half of their 10 games played to this point. This one certainly has a lot of scoring potential, and Buffalo has played their last four vs. a team with a losing record to the OVER, as well as having gone 20-7-3 to the OVER on two days of rest. The Thrashers have been OVER to a 45-20-4 mark in their last 69 following a win. I like the OVER in this one.
