Flyers vs. Sabres: Odds & Prediction

The Philadelphia Flyers are +154 underdogs while the Buffalo Sabres are -185 favorites. The over/under is set at 6.5 with the over juiced to -130.

Ad

The Flyers have struggled as of late which is due to goaltender Carter Hart being injured, as Philadelphia is now playing their backup and third-string goalie. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen, meanwhile, has taken over as the Sabres goalie and has played well this season.

Buffalo's offense should be too much for Ersson as the Sabres cruise to a win here.

Prediction: Sabres 5, Flyers 2
