The Sabres are playing on back-to-back nights after a high-scoring loss, while their offense has struggled. Columbus, dealing with key injuries, will likely focus on defense. Buffalo’s solid goaltending and Columbus' depleted roster suggest a slower, lower-scoring game. Both teams have recent under trends in matchups and road games.
