The Buffalo Sabres look to continue their surprising start as they host the Pittsburgh Penguins on Wednesday. Here are our NHL picks and predictions for Wednesday's game between the Penguins and Sabres.
The Sabres are off to a red-hot start this season at 6-3-0, including 3-2-0 at home. They've won two straight games by a combined score of 12-6, sparked by a six-point game by Tage Thompson against the Detroit Red Wings on Monday.
The Penguins are scuffling after blowing a 5-2 lead to the Boston Bruins Tuesday. They're playing the ir second game in as many nights and have lost five straight contests. Pittsburgh is 4-4-2 on the season and only 1-4-1 on the road.
Here are my NHL picks and predictions for Wednesday's Penguins vs. Sabres matchup (odds via BetRivers, DraftKings Sportsbook, and FanDuel Sportsbook; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).
