Defensively the Sabres allow 3.49 goals and 34.2 shot attempts with a 77.9% penalty kill. Expected goalie for the Sabres is Michael Houser(no available stats).

The  Senators are 11-18-2, 5-9-0 at home, sitting in 6th place in the Atlantic Division. Offensively the Senators are averaging 2.84 goals and 28.7 shots. The Senators are 20% on power play opportunities and 47.9% on faceoffs.

Defensively the Senators are allowing 3.61 goals and 33.8 shot attempts with a 78% penalty kill. Expected goalie for the Senators is Anton Forsberg( 6-5-1) with a .908 save percentage.

There is nothing about the offenses of the Sabres nor the Senators that leads me to believe this game will reach the projected total. The Senators who are averaging slightly more than the Sabres are still under 3 goals per game. My best bet is the Under 6. Final score prediction the Ottawa Senators win cover the spread and the total stays under 3-1.
