Sabres Hope for Another Win Streak, Play Against Stars

The Buffalo Sabres are back in action tonight as they host the Dallas Stars at 7 p. m. EDT in Buffalo, New York.

The visiting team is coming off a tough loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets last night and will look to bounce back with another win. Buffalo is currently sitting at 50-23-8 on the season, ranking well above their division while Dallas has been a consistent strong performer in recent games. The Sabres have served an average of 9.

8 penalty minutes per game this season and are one of only seven teams with fewer penalties than opponents. The road warriors for the Stars include Mikko Rantanen leading the charge with 22 goals and 55 assists, while Jason Robertson has been a consistent player in recent games as well. On the opposing end, Tage Thompson is the key player for Buffalo scoring two goals against them earlier this season.

Both teams have had some injuries over the past few weeks but are back to full strength ready to face off on Wednesday night. The Sabres' defense has been strong throughout their road trips recently while Dallas will look to keep their streak alive as they host a team that's been scoring goals at an impressive pace this season. The Sabres have won the last meeting between these two teams by a score of 4-1, which gives them some momentum heading into tonight's game.
