Things are always impossible until they’re not. The Buffalo Sabres, winners to 10 straight games recently, found themselves at Bridgestone Arena after two consecutive losses. They also found themselves facing a depleted Nashville Predators’ roster, who also lost consecutive games at home. Buffalo has significant players that can score and put up points. And, being one of the better teams in the Eastern Conference, they come in with standings points as the Predators.
All signs pointed to a Sabres victory. The Predators, missing four key players, have rotated players and struggled to score. Buffalo could take advantage and pull out two points.
