For Buffalo, the campaign can already be considered a failure. Yes, it's only the middle of January, but things are so bad for them that it's only mathematically possible to save them. But in reality, the Sabres aren't getting anywhere. Yes, the Sabres broke their terrible streak of 13 straight losses a long time ago, but there's still no stability. In the past six games, the Blades have lost four times, the previous day they were 2:6 with Seattle. Obviously, Buffalo is in last place in the overall East table with 37 points.
Carolina
Carolina also has problems this season, but they are all localized, and there are no big difficulties for the team. Rod Brindamore's wards are currently in a solid fourth position in the overall Eastern Conference table with 55 points, which means that globally they are doing great. Misfires happen, but the wins haven't gone away, either - the day before, Carolina beat Toronto 6:3, and then Vancouver (2:0). But in the last battle they somehow miraculously missed the victory in the battle with Anaheim at home (2:3 in overtime).
H2H Meetings
Buffalo and Carolina in the current campaign did not play, and in the last face-to-face meeting on February 2, 2024 won the Sabres in a shootout (3:2).
Expert Betting Tips
Yes, Carolina hasn't looked like a standard team lately, and they have had their stumbles. However, the Hurricanes rarely lose two games in a row, and in a stretch of 20 previous meetings, it happened only once. And now - after an extremely frustrating 2:3 loss to Anaheim, they simply have no right to upset the fans again. Besides, their opponents are Buffalo, which has already hit rock bottom in the East. We don't expect any sensations here, offering a bet on the favorite to win.
