Los Angeles at Buffalo

The Kings open a three-game road trip tonight as they travel to Buffalo to take on the Sabres. The Kings have been playing better of late as in their last four games they have two wins, a shootout and OT loss, so they have won or been down to the wire in every game. The Sabres opened the season with six wins in their first seven times out on the ice, but things certainly haven't been the same since as they have been 9-15 after the great start. The two goals allowed per game in their fast start have deteriorated into 3.38 gpg in their last 16. That may be the most important signal here as the Sabres are 0-4 after allowing five goals or more in their last game, so I'll side with the Kings to get the road win here.
