A scheduling quirk means that two of the Sabres toughest Western Conference opponents will see their season series with Buffalo come and go this week.
Last week was a successful one for the Sabres, nabbing five of six possible points as they beat the Lightning and Panthers while losing in overtime to the Sharks en route to a 2-0-1 record. The week ahead features a funny scheduling quirk - the Sabres will play their next four games , both home and away, against the St. Louis Blues and Dallas Stars, thus finishing up the season series with both of those teams.
