Buffalo likes to slow the pace down, off last Thursday's 3-1 triumph over Columbus. The last place Sabres are #31 in the league in goals scored and on the power play. Buffalo is 16-5-1 UNDER the total against the Eastern Conference, as well as 12-5-1 UNDER when their opponent allows two goals or less in their previous game. The N.Y. Rangers can play strong defense, off a 5-1 win over Philly. New York goalie Henrik Lundqvist has yielded one goal or fewer in five of his last 10 contests versus Buffalo, including a 3-2 victory when they met three weeks ago. And the UNDER is 14-6-3 when these teams clash, including 7-3-3 UNDER in this building. Take the UNDER.
