Buffalo at Detroit

Rested Buffalo prefers to slow the pace down, scoring 10 goals the last five games. The Sabres are 17-6-4 UNDER the total playing on two days of rest. Sabres goalie Robin Lehner made 32 saves in last month's encounter with Detroit, a 1-0 Buffalo win. He's had their number, turning aside 97-of-102 shots to post a 2-0-1 mark versus the Red Wings last season. Detroit is just one game above .500 at home, 18-40 against the Eastern Conference, including 15-36 versus the Atlantic Division. Defenseman Luke Witkowski was suspended 10 games by the NHL for his role in Wednesday's melee versus the Flames. Detroit is #16 in goals scored, focusing on defense first, ninth in goals allowed, seventh in penalty killing. They are off an 8-2 victory that ended a two-game skid and the team is 16-4-1 UNDER after scoring five goals or more in their previous game, so back the dog in a defensive battle. Play Buffalo and the UNDER.
