Detroit vs Buffalo: prediction for the NHL preseason match
On October 1, the Detroit Red Wings square off against the Buffalo Sabres in the NHL preseason match. We made predictions for this fixture, which you can find below.
Command Analysis
Detroit Red Wings
USAThe Detroit Red Wings have been consistently poor in recent seasons and finished bottom of the table. The management has a lot of work to do in order to improve the situation and start delivering better performance.
The Red Wings were unable to strengthen their roster in the offseason, except for the signing of goaltender Alex Nedeljkovic. In the attack, the Red Wings will once again rely on Fabbri, Ryan, Vrana, and Larkin.
Buffalo Sabres
USAThe Buffalo Sabres also were the outsiders in recent years. Last season, they finished on the last line of the standings with only 37 points. Jack Eichel and Victor Olofsson are undoubtedly the most important attacking players of the Sabres, but their efforts are clearly not enough to make the playoffs.
No significant changes were made to the squad in the offseason. The Sabres have already played one preseason game against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The two sides drew in regulation, and the Sabres scored a winner in overtime (5:4).
