Buffalo Sabres hold the Atlantic Division lead with 100 points and a 46-21-8 record, positioning them for a high playoff seed in the Eastern Conference, but face a motivated Washington Capitals squad battling for wild card contention amid a middling 38-29-9 mark. Caps snapped Buffalo's eight-game win streak with a 2-1 victory on March 12 in Buffalo via Jakob Chychrun's late goal and Charlie Lindgren's 29 saves, giving them a 1-0-1 season series edge heading into this Capital One Arena matchup. Sabres forward Sam Carrick is out week-to-week with a left arm injury from a recent fight, while Caps deal with upper-body absences for Aliaksei Protas and others; Buffalo's superior recent form (8-1-1 in last 10 before recent Senators loss) and regulation wins advantage drive trader consensus toward a competitive tilt favoring the visitors despite home ice.
