Buffalo at Winnipeg

The Buffalo Sabres have won four games in a row for the first time since March 24th, 2012. The biggest issue they face here is that those four were all on home ice where they have actually been decent. Now they have to take to the road where they are just 4-9 on the season, and 12-42 in their last 54. The Sabres have a lot of trouble scoring on the road, as they have averaged a woeful 1.6 goals over the last two years away from Buffalo. Winnipeg has played playoff-caliber hockey this season at 15-10-6, and have been all over Buffalo in recent meetings as they have won eight of the last nine, as well as 7-5 in the last 22 meetings here. The Jets have also been destroying losing teams as they own a stellar 11-1 mark in their last 12 vs. a team with a losing record. The Sabres are in a tough spot on the road with no rest vs. a team that has taken advantage of playing a losing team. Play on Winnipeg.
