Flyers battle Sabres at Wachovia Center
The Sabres hope they get more respect from the Flyers Monday than they do from Vegas oddsmakers, who peg them as 140 underdogs.
Buffalo brings a 22-10-1 overall mark (6-5-0 in the division) into this game versus a Philadelphia team carrying a 19-8-4 record.
The Flyers are favored, opening as 140 chalk, with an opening total of 6. They are 19-8-4 this season and 17-12-2 OU. The Sabres are 22-10-1 and are 13-19-1 OU.
Lindy Ruff's team hopes to build upon a 4-3 win over the Penguins. They were 260 favorites in a game that went over the total.
The Flyers defeated the Blues 5-2 as 200 favorites. That contest went over the closing total.
Expect the league's #2 offence to pot some goals and generate trouble for the Sabres defence. Averaging 3.8 goals per game, the Flyers can run up the score if they get on a roll.
