Florida has won 10 of the past 11 meetings overall and the last five that were played at Buffalo. The Panthers already have two games under their belts winning 6-4 against Boston before a 3-1 defeat at Ottawa on Thursday. Sergei Bobrovsky had 28 saves against the Senators and he is the likely starter tonight for the Panthers. Buffalo will go with Devon Levi, who went 16-6-4 with a 2.42 goals-against average in 2023-24, but the Sabres are off to an 0-3 start while not showing much offensively being outscored 10-3. Florida is 21-5 its past 26 games as a favorite of -110 to -150 and Buffalo has lost six of seven as an underdog dating to last season. The Sabres lost to Los Angeles on Thursday when Anze Kopitar scored a natural hat trick in the third period to beat the Sabres 3-1. Take the Panthers.
