The Washington Capitals are tough as nails at home. You have to go all the way back to last March to find them losing at home by more than a single goal, so you know they will always be in the game. It was December of last season when they suffered their first outright loss at home. The Sabres really had it going, but have hit their first rough spot of the season as they are winless in their last three games and have been getting buried, with a combined score of 13-6 against them in the three games. Washington is not a good place to get healthy. The Caps are 63-31 in their last 94 as a favorite while the Sabres have cashed just two of their last nine as a dog of +110 to +150. I'll go with Washington here.
