NHL *DOG OF THE DAY*
(NHL) Pittsburgh vs. Buffalo,
Money Line: 147.00 Buffalo (Home)
Result: Win
Play: Buffalo Sabres
Rating: 8*

The Buffalo Sabres have been woeful lately, losing six consecutive games and averaging just one goal per game during the slide. They host the Pittsburgh Penguins at KeyBank Center Saturday night, and I think we're getting an excellent price on the Sabres to finally put an end to their skid. The Penguins are coming off a hard-fought 3-2 overtime win against the Islanders at New York last night. That game meant a lot for the Pens as they needed a quick bounce back from a 7-1 loss at Washington two nights earlier. The Pens have a home-and-home series with the Rangers on deck, and I'm counting on them to look past the Sabres, giving Buffalo a chance to win at a great price.
