Buffalo returns home after a good road trip with 2 key injuries on defense to play a suddenly surging Montreal team that everyone thought would be trying to race Arizona to the Bedard. Good news is Montreal has lost 2 straight after their fast start but Buffalo can't pull a walk through and expect to win.  Slafkovsky is the big 1st overall pick for Montreal who I think is injured but might be back?  Buffalo will need to find their legs after a sloppy and uninspired showing in Seattle.
