The Red Wings followed that up with another win, against the New Jersey Devils (5-2). They then faced back-to-back overtime defeats to the Los Angeles Kings (5-4) and Chicago Blackhawks (4-3). However, Detroit bounced back with a comfortable 5-1 win against the Anaheim Ducks.

In the reverse fixture, the New Jersey Devils took revenge over Detroit (6-2), who lost 5-1 to Boston Bruins in their next game. In their last outing, the Red Wings beat the Minnesota Wild 2-1 to return to winning ways.

The Sabres, meanwhile, have fared a bit better compared to the Red Wings. They have five wins and three losses. Their best win came against the Calgary Flames (6-3). Playing at home makes them the favorites in tonight's matchup.
