We’ve got another Global Series game ahead on Saturday with the Stars and Panthers squaring off from Finland.
This is a potential Stanley Cup Finals preview in the making, but I’m keen to bet the Stars given they have a five-day rest advantage coming in.
Florida has been given three days off, but on neutral ice, those extra two days could prove crucial given the travel.
There’s a slight edge on the Sabres here, which isn’t something I’ll be saying often this season.
The Islanders are playing their third game in five days, and as their record suggests, things aren’t going very well under new coach Patrick Roy.
Matthew Barzal is off to a slow start and the team as a whole is struggling to get puck on net. With the Sabres enjoying a three-day break, there’s good value here on the home side.
