Sabres vs Senators Key Stats
Buffalo has done well on offense with 59 goals in 16 games. The partnership between Rasmus Dahlin and Tage Thompson has been brilliant upfront.They both average more than a point per game and are likely to play an important role in this game.
On defense, they have not performed well and goaltenders have been left alone to face over 500 shots in 16 games. All the efforts of the goaltenders have gone in vain due to leaky defense, making it difficult for them to cover the deficit and win.
Ottawa has done well, scoring over 3 goals scored per game this season. Brady Tkachuk, along with Claude Giroux, have done a great job and have earned over a point per game. They have been crucial for the team in the buildup and scoring and the team will hope for the same in this game too.
