Buffalo Sabres vs Toronto Maple Leafs Prediction, Odds and Picks for Friday, 12/20/24

The total for this game opened at 6.0 but has started to move to 6.5 in some spots. There’s no question that the Buffalo Sabres are falling apart. They have lost 11 in a row and look miserable in most of their games. They allowed 6 goals to the Canadiens last game, a team that doesn’t shoot the puck or score goals on home ice. As bad as this Sabres team has been this season, we can’t fully trust the Leafs to be at their best in this one. They have been playing really well over the last 5 games, but tonight, Matt Murray is starting for the first time in over a year and there is no way we can trust him to be good. One thing is for sure; there will be no shortage of scoring chances tonight. Toronto has an elite offense and the Sabres will have Rasmus Dahlin back in the lineup. We can expect a healthy number of goals for this one.
