Scouting Report
The Florida Panthers and Buffalo Sabres get set for a matinee affair to celebrate the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday at KeyBank Arena. While they aren’t exactly beating top-notch competition, the Panthers have won four of their last six games, including Saturday night’s 4-3 victory over the Vancouver Canucks, to creep within five points of the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. That same night, the Sabres halted a three-game losing streak with a 5-3 win over the Nashville Predators at Bridgestone Arena to also hit the 44-point mark. Buffalo has three games in hand over Florida, so the Cats will be looking for another road win over the Sabres, who they defeated 4-3 back on October 15 in the second game of the season for both teams.
