The Buffalo Sabres have been waiting for this game since they dispatched the Boston Bruins back on Friday. They’ve been able to rest and reset as they watched the Montreal Canadiens and Tampa Bay Lightning go to seven games. Some have brought up the idea of Buffalo turning the net back over the Ukka-Pekka Luukonen. Lyon is the guy Ruff should and will likely stick with. Both teams are tough, fast, and skilled. This is going to be a fun series to watch. The Canadiens bring more experience to the series and better goaltending. That should be the difference, but Buffalo will be a solid opponent for them.

Prediction: Montreal Canadiens advance in 7 games
