On Wednesday night, the Buffalo Sabres will host the Montreal Canadiens and begin their Eastern Conference Second Round bout. Buffalo has already made history during these playoffs in their first appearance since 2011, but they don't want the ride to end just yet. The Sabres have not made a Conference Finals since 2007, when they lost 4-1 in the series against the Ottawa Senators .
It took the Canadiens a while, seven games to be exact, to get past the Tampa Bay Lightning in the first round, but Montreal has proven they are worthy of being one of the final eight teams in these NHL playoffs. Martin St. Louis' crew only had nine shots on goal during their Game 7 win.
However, their defense is what helped them move on to the second round. When matched against each other during the regular season, the Sabres and Canadiens were eerily similar. The teams split their season series 2-2.
