The Buffalo Sabres who were red hot to start the year are now sitting only 2 games over the five hundred mark. The Sabres are sitting at a record of 21-19-7 on the year. When it comes to the last game the Sabres ended up getting a 4-2 win over the Vegas Golden Knights.

The offense for the Sabres is sitting at 2.93 goals a game on the year. The Buffalo Sabres have allowed 3.17 goals a game this year. When it comes to the power play the Buffalo Sabres have converted only at a clip of 18.8% so far and the penalty kill is sitting at 75% on the year.

The Dallas Stars are coming into the game trailing the Saint Louis Blues by 9 points in the standings. The Stars are sitting on a 27-15-4 record this year. The Stars last game on the ice was a 3-2 win over the Colorado Avalanche.

Offensively the Stars have ended up getting a total of 2.64 goals a game. The defense for Dallas has been the star and is one of the best in the NHL with 2.33 goals a game allowed. The Dallas team has converted on the power play at only 20.2% this year, but the defense has ended up killing off 83.6% of the power plays this year.

    The Stars are playing great defense and are facing a Sabres team that has a questionable offense. The Sabres defense is not that bad, but still struggles quite a bit on the season. Look for the weaker Stars offense, though, to take advantage of the lack of a major defensive showing in the game from the Sabres and bring home a win while keeping the Sabres offense at bay. Final Score Prediction, Dallas Stars win 2-1.
