The underdog is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings.

The Philadelphia Flyers have had some recent success on their home ice, but they can’t be trusted given the larger sample size, especially against above average teams. The Buffalo Sabres are kind of due for a breakout victory, and they need all they can get to keep their slim playoff hopes alive. The Sabres are the team still playing for something. I’ll lay the small juice.
