Buffalo won its third in four games, 1-0, in overtime over Calgary on Friday as Tage Thompson scored the winner and Dustin Tokarski made 24 saves for the Sabres. Vancouver has lost four of its last five following a 5-2 defeat against Calgary, which outshot the Canucks 44-25 on Saturday night. Thatcher Demko gave up four goals on 29 shots before Jaroslav Halak replaced him and stopped 14 of 15 shots against the Flames. The Sabres won the only meeting this season, 5-2, in October. The Canucks are only 5-15 in their last 20 Sunday games and 13-38 overall when playing on no rest. Tokarski is likely in net again tonight as he has allowed only one goal in his last two starts, and we're getting good line value with Buffalo here. Play the Sabres.
