Game Preview | |
A Look BackIt was a hard fought battle for the Habs who played a competitive game against a strong Wild team. It took the Habs a period to settle into the game but costly mistakes ended up being the difference. Cole Caufield scored his fifth goal of the season while Mike Hoffman who had a chance to be the hero but failed on a penalty shot attempt.

Game Expectations |
Two teams off to what some believe are surprising starts should compete in a high scoring match. Both teams have players that can score. The Habs have to be careful as former first overall pick Rasmus Dahlin leads the charge for the Sabres with nine points in six games.
Bottom LineGoaltending could be the difference. Sam Montembeault needs to step up his game to be a difference-maker in tonight’s game.
