SAN JOSE SHARKS VS. BUFFALO SABRES – 10/22/2019 FREE PICK & NHL BETTING PREDICTION

It’s a nice slate of hockey on Tuesday and in this game is a cross conference matchup.

In this game the San Jose Sharks make the trip to the KeyBank Center to take on the Buffalo Sabres. The Sabres have won the last two games played between the two teams.

San Jose Sharks

The San Jose Sharks have had and up and down start to the season and it’s hard to know exactly what kind of team they are going to have.

They started off the season losing four straight but since that point have won three of their last four games. The one loss was in their last game by a goal to the Sabres.

In two of their three wins they gave up two goals or less and the defense is probably going to need to be strong again in this one.

Buffalo Sabres

On the other side of this matchup is the Buffalo Sabres who have picked up at least a point in all but one of their games this season.

The Sabres offense has been really good, but the defense has been where they have really made their money. On the season they are giving up 2.33 goals per game. Over the last five games that number has actually dropped to 2.00 goals per game.
