The Buffalo Sabres are looking to extract a little sweet revenge on the Washington Capitals tonight, who invade the KeyBank Center for the first and last time this season.
The Sabres are 0-1-1 against the Capitals in 2016-17, including a 3-2 loss Monday that the Sabres probably should have won. (Probably – nothing is a given in the NHL, after all.)
Buffalo will have a few familiar faces back in the lineup tonight, as defensemen Josh Gorges and Dmitry Kulikov will make their return. Don’t know how well they will play, but there they are!
Here is tonight’s projected lineup:
29 Jake McCabe – 55 Rasmus Ristolainen
77 Dmitry Kulikov – 6 Cody Franson
4 Josh Gorges – 41 Justin Falk
40 Robin Lehner
31 Anders Nilsson
And now, the picks!
