Gamethread #42: New Jersey Devils at Buffalo Sabres

The New Jersey Devils four game road trip ends with a stop in upstate New York to face the Buffalo Sabres. The road hasn’t been kind this year; will it be tonight?

Six out of eight is no longer attainable on the current road trip for our New Jersey Devils. While that was the goal, a win against the Buffalo Sabres tonight would do the team some good after a disappointing loss on Sunday. The Devils raced out to a 2-0 lead, but floundered after that in losing to the Vegas Golden Knights 3-2. The road hasn’t been particularly kind to the Devils, but tonight facing a Sabres team without Jack Eichel, the Devils can hopefully manage to get to a .500 record.

The Time: 7:00 PM ET

The Broadcast: TV - MSG; Digital Audio - The “Devils Hockey Network.” Head over to Radio.com or NHL.com for an audio feed.

The Song for the Night: Sticking with the theme of the Devils’ goal song, tonight we go back a bit further in the band’s history, as we go with Great Expectations by The Gaslight Anthem. I do have the greatest expectations for this team (even when things aren’t always the best) and tonight is no exception.

The Rules: The usual set of rules remains in effect before, during and after the game.
