The Game: 7:00 p.m. EST on NBC Sports Philadelphia, ESPN+/Hulu, and 93.3 WMMR
Well, that was a tough loss against the Carolina Hurricanes on Monday. No matter! On to the next one: a midweek match against the 4-5-0 Buffalo Sabres, who currently sit last in the Atlantic Division.
It’s been a bumpy start for the Sabres, but they enter tonight’s game with some momentum: they shut out the Colorado Avalanche 4-0 on Sunday, and Buffalo’s high-octane, run-and-gun offense may pose some problems for the Flyers.
Buffalo’s summer saw them make a few changes to their depth, especially on defense; last season saw the Sabres score the second-most goals in the league (296) but sport a minus-4 goal differential.
