Montreal is ahead of Buffalo in the division, on a nice run against the Eastern Conference (4-1). Captain Max Pacioretty's assist on Tuesday was his 52nd point of the season, moving him past defenseman P.K. Subban for the team lead. They face a Buffalo team ranked #27 in goals scored, #17 in goals allowed. Buffalo is 22-49 when following a win. Sabres center Ryan O'Reilly is hurting and may be back but is not 100%, leading the team with 49 points despite but playing since February 19 due to a foot injury. The Sabres are 23-52 against the Eastern Conference and 21-49 vs. the Atlantic Division, so grab the dog and take Montreal.
