We like the Ottawa Senators to defeat the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday at 7:07pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Ottawa seeks consistency after alternating wins and losses recently. Off a win, they'll go for a second straight winner today.

The Sens are 5-1 in their L6 divisional matchup with opponents within the Atlantic Division.

Bufallo are just 3-7 over their L10 games played against Atlantic Division oppoinents.

The Sabres are winning at just a 33.3% clip this season through 12 games. They've been bad on the power-play as well. ]

Both Ottawa's goals are great, no matter who gets the start today.

We're backing the Sens on Tuesday to pick up the win.
