Devils vs. Sabres: NHL Game Day Preview

Puck drop for this pro hockey betting action is scheduled for 7:30 PM ET on Wednesday, November 16, 2011, from First Niagara Center in Buffalo, New York.

Buffalo (11-6-0) comes into this contest as winners in five of their last seven games. Last time out, on Monday, November 14, the Sabres scored a 3-2 shootout win over the Montreal Canadians. Jhonas Enroth will get a second straight start in goal, over Ryan Miller who is out with a concussion.

New Jersey (8-7-1) have won four of their last six contests, including a 4-3 loss to the Boston Bruins last night. The Devils hung tough, against the steam rolling defending Champs, as the game sat tied three times. The Bruins scored with under four minutes to play to grab the win. After Johan Hedberg started the last two games, Martin Brodeur will be stacking the pillows for the Devils tonight.

NHL Puck Betting Lines: Sabres vs. Devils Free Pick

We head the Sportsbook at Bodog.com for tonight’s Sabres vs. Devils Free Pick. Along with the Blackhawks vs. Canucks match-up, the Buffalo vs. New Jersey contest is part of the LIVE BETTING puck action at Bodog tonight.

New Jersey surrendered three goals in the third period last night. They looked to be running on empty in doing so. This is first time the Devils will play back-to-back road games, on consecutive nights, this season.

In that scenario last year, New Jersey went 0-3 in the contest on the back end. The Devils were outscored by an 8-3 margin, including a 2-0 shutout loss to the Sabres in March. Buffalo is coming off a day of rest as they look to get Enroth his seventh straight win in goal.

Buffalo, at home, winning by two on an empty net goal, would net a 450 unit profit on a 100 unit investment with the Margin Of Victory wagering line at Bodog. Just saying….
