As Ryan looked at earlier this week, the Sabres had a decent month of October, finishing the month 6-4-2. But now, they face a hectic month ahead, with 15 games in the next 30 days, including four sets of back-to-back games. Additionally, eight of the Sabres’ games are against fellow Atlantic Division opponents.
First up: a pair of games against the Ottawa Senators. The Senators have struggled early this season but are only four points behind the Sabres in the standings entering the month, with a 4-5-2 record. However, they have only one win on the road this season so far and placed goaltender MIke Condon on waivers after Tuesday’s loss in Arizona.
