Bluelines: Beating up on Buffalo

It will be interesting to see what Leafs team shows up tonight. The Leafs are locked into a playoff spot, and have had a history of phoning it in against some of the weaker teams in the league. That being said, they’ve also had a bizarre run of success on Tuesday nights this season.

Okay, so unless you are looking to include a Leafs win as part of your parlay, this isn’t a huge moneymaker. The Sabres on the other hand are paying +345, so if you think the post clinch hangover is real, go against Toronto. Kallgren will be in net, Liljegren is back with Rielly, and we’re getting our first look at the Giordano-Lyubushkin pairing too. Anything could happen.

If you are down for Auston taking advantage of a not-so-great Buffalo team, and getting to the 60 mark as soon as possible, you can bet on a two goal night at +260. A single goal only pays at -162, but if you expect him to come out guns blazing, Matthews getting the first goal pays at +650.

His streak can’t go on forever, right? Tonight against underwhelming goaltending and a bad Buffalo team is as good a time as any for him to break out. Of course, the first line is still trying to find Auston at all costs and that’s probably the biggest barrier for him.
