Well whaddya know? The Flyers are riding a four-game point streak and are 3-0-1 heading into today’s match against the Buffalo Sabres, though they’ll be down a couple of important players. Let’s be real though: they had no business being in that game against Ottawa, let alone winning it (though the Matvei Michkov overtime winner ruled). If the Flyers bring that energy (or lack thereof) against the Sabres, they could get burned; Buffalo may be aggressively mediocre, but they do know how to score goals with the fourth most goals-for in the Eastern Conference.
It’s been a strange season-plus for the Sabres.
