We believe that the home team has a slight edge in this fixture and suggest playing their victory with a zero handicap.
Our prediction - handicap (0) to Buffalo
The teams rarely sit on the defensive in head-to-head games, preferring to play an open attacking brand of hockey, so we will be taking the over here.
