    The highly disappointing Buffalo Sabres come to the silent confines of Consol Energy Center coming off an overtime lost to the Boston Bruins 3-2. #TankForMcDavid seems to be well underway for the Sabres as they continue to just woah the hockey world by finding new ways to disappoint. The Sabres only registered ten shots (10) on net against the TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS on Tuesday. Although the Penguins should easily win this game on paper and by logic, these are the games that aren't as easy as expected. Half of the players in the Sabres lineup we've never heard of. However, Buffalo wants to win, including defenseman Tyler Myers who basically called his team "embarrassing" after the loss to the Leafs. Christian Ehrhoff will face his former team and probably laugh at them from across the bench. Either way, it's a game the Penguins should win and a game Buffalo badly needs to give them a confidence boost.
