The Buffalo Sabres are coming off an excellent performance against the New Jersey Devils as they were able to put up 7 goals and restrict the Devils to only 20 shots on goal.
The Blue Jackets start to the season has been much less impressive as they have pretty brutal losses to both the Toronto Maple Leafs and Pittsburgh Penguins under their belt.
Buffalo Sabres
The Buffalo Sabres will look to build on a really impressive last game against the New Jersey Devils.
[dfads params=’groups=234&limit=1&return_javascript=1′]
They managed to play solid fundamental hockey and keep it clean only conceding 2 penalties. Jack Eichel was solid in that last game with 1 goal and 2 assists along with 2 blocks.
It looks like Carter Hutton will get the start here for the Buffalo Sabres and he has been solid so far this year with a 1.5 GAA. I would look for him to once again have a solid start against a Blue Jackets team that has not gotten off to the hottest start offensively.

Columbus Blue Jackets
Columbus was brutal in that last game allowing the Penguins to fire 40 shots on goal which they turned into 7 goals. They were also inefficient offensively and were undisciplined taking 4 penalties. Now they are back at home and I would expect an improved effort from these guys off such an embarrassing performance and in front of their home fans.
Starting goalies are unconfirmed for this game, but J. Korpisalo is likely to get the nod here. He has been brutal so far, but it is a really small sample size so there is lots of time to turn it around.

Free Buffalo Sabres vs. Columbus Blue Jackets NHL Prediction:
I am going to keep this one relatively simple and go with the over. Neither of these teams have good goaltending and neither of them have a good blueline.
This one could get pretty crazy and it would not surprise me if one of these goalies ends up getting pulled.
4* Free NHL Betting Pick: Sabres ML
I wouldn’t go crazy with this one, though, as the bookies have priced this about where it should be with a 6.5 O/U number.
