🏒 San Jose Sharks vs Buffalo Sabres
The Buffalo Sabres finds itself in a prime bounce-back spot as they host a road-weary San Jose Sharks team playing its fourth game in six nights, all on the road. The Sabres have generated strong offensive numbers lately, recording a 67.6% expected goals-for rating in their last game despite falling short against Montreal.
Meanwhile, San Jose has struggled with travel-heavy scheduling, and starting Alexandar Georgiev in their last outing could leave them vulnerable between the pipes. With the Sabres dictating possession and facing a tired opponent, backing Buffalo on the moneyline is the smart play.
Best Bet: Buffalo Sabres Moneyline (-225)

🔥 Anaheim Ducks vs Edmonton Oilers
The Edmonton Oilers offense has been due for an explosion, and tonight’s matchup with the Anaheim Ducks is the perfect opportunity. Edmonton recently generated 31 scoring chances and 16 high-danger opportunities but was limited to just three goals due to some unfortunate breaks.
On the other side, the Ducks have been surprisingly active in the offensive zone, posting above-average high-danger chances in three of their last four games. Neither team boasts elite goaltending, making the over a strong value play in what should be a fast-paced, high-scoring battle.
Best Bet: Over 6.5 Goals (-104)
