Florida is 11-2 in the past 13 meetings, and the Panthers currently are riding a five-game win streak after shutting out Columbus 3-0 on Thursday night. Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 16 shots in his fourth shutout this season, and the Blue Jackets were outshot 36-16. The Panthers have allowed only 10 goals in their past eight games, and they have won nine of 10 home games. Buffalo has lost six road games in a row and its last five overall while allowing 25 goals in that span. The Sabres are 0-7 on the road against teams with .600 home winning percentages and 0-5 in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 days spot. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen is expected in net for the Sabres, and he owns a 3.16 goals-against average and a .888 save percentage. Buffalo is headed for a last-place finish in the Atlantic Division. Take the Panthers.
