The Buffalo Sabres enter Tuesday’s matchup against the San Jose Sharks coming off arguably the game of the season. Buffalo defeated Tampa Bay in a wild back-and-forth contest that resulted in an 8-7 win for the Sabres. The chaotic win moved the Sabres up to the top spot in the Atlantic division, as they now own 84 points on the season. As impressive as Sunday’s win was, this may be a good time to fade Buffalo. After such an emotional win, a bit of a natural let down can be expected in the following game. Plus, the Sharks are a formidable opponent who are capable of giving the red-hot Sabres all they can handle.

It’s clear the Sharks are heading in the right direction. Macklin Celebrini has emerged into a bonafide superstar in his 2nd NHL season at just 19 years of age, and the young core around him consisting of Will Smith, William Eklund, and Michael Misa gives San Jose a bright future ahead. They enter this contest with wins in 3 of their last 5 games, and the 2 losses in that stretch have come in overtime. They are playing solid hockey right now, and have an extra day of rest over the Sabres as they haven’t played since Saturday against the Islanders. The Sabres are overwhelming favorites, for a reason, but don’t be surprised if the Sharks make this one interesting. Consider backing San Jose +1.5 on the puck line on Tuesday.

Sharks vs Sabres prediction: Sharks +1.5 (-150) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
