The set-up: Both teams come in off losses. The Devils were blanked 4-0 at home by the Rangers, while the Sabres fought tooth and nail only to come up short in OT at Toronto. The Devils were 0-8 on their power play in their last loss and while they've been decent of late on the road, I think this team stumbles again here.

The pick: While the Sabres have struggled over the last two weeks, they remain a sharp 7-3-3 at home this year. Buffalo is also 9-5 in its last 14 vs. clubs with losing records. Home ice matters tonight in my opinion.
