Sharks vs Sabres Key Stats
San Jose's offense has been poor this season and they lack quality scorers. Most of the chances have been created by Erik Karlsson, who has 22 assists to his name. They will need other players to contribute more to have a bigger impact in future games.
Although the goaltenders have done well individually, their defense has failed to perform properly. San Jose have conceded over 3.5 goals per game this season and have never looked like a solid defensive unit.
Buffalo have been decent on offense this season with over 85 goals scored. Contributions from players like Rasmus Dahlin and Tage Thompson have played a big part in the team's success. Both have over 55 goal involvements between them and they will play a crucial role in the upcoming games.
Their defense has been a failure this season and is one of the reasons for their poor record. They need improvements to get better results in the upcoming games.
Sharks vs Sabres Betting Prediction
Both teams are struggling for form, making this matchup quite interesting. San Jose have lost 11 times in their last 15 meetings with Buffalo.
Home advantage and better offense put Buffalo a little ahead in this matchup. They are 8-3 in their last 11 vs. a team with a winning % below .400 and are in a better position to repeat the same to win the game.
