Bad Buffalo has incredibly won three in a row, but don't be fooled, this is still the worst team in the league. They won all three by one goal with the offense scoring just 2 goals in two of them. Two were also at home and now they head south to Tampa Bay for the second of a home-and-home series, after upsetting the Lightening 2-1. Buffalo ranks #30 in goals scored, #24 in goals allowed, and #30 on the power play. The Sabres are 8-21 following a win, plus they're on a 12-40 road run. They won't upset first place Tampa Bay twice in a row - a team that is first in goals scored and #13 in goals allowed. The Lightning are 8-2 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game and will bounce back with a one-sided win. All Tampa Bay in this one.
