This one could simply be a matter of fatigue. Buffalo has been off since Monday and they played that game at home as well, so they haven’t had to travel all week long. Meanwhile, the Islanders are playing their third game in their third different city in four days here. On top of that, New York scored just one combined goal in their two games against the Ducks and Blue Jackets in those back-to-back contests. Neither of those teams are considered overly talented on the defensive end of the ice or in goal. Buffalo has the rest advantage and they are at home here: look for the Sabres to take advantage of the tired, struggling Islanders to earn the win here.
