The Buffalo Sabres ended their homestand with a big win at the Heritage Classic against the Toronto Maple Leafs
The Buffalo Sabres will take a trip north of the border for a three-game road trip before they head back home to face the Pittsburgh Penguins. And it’s a road trip that will challenge the Sabres. Not only are the Flames, Canucks, and Oilers contending, but the Sabres will deal with playing three games in a four-day span.
Recently, the Sabres struggled when forced to play back-to-back games. The most recent example was an embarrassing 9-1 meltdown to the Los Angeles Kings (3-0) and Florida Panthers (6-1). Add a road trip out west to the equation, and the Sabres may again struggle.
