The two worst teams in the Eastern Conference will clash at KeyBank Center Tuesday night when the Buffalo Sabres host the Ottawa Senators. Ottawa has lost four straight and 11 of its last 12 while Buffalo has lost two in a row and 13 of its last 15.

We can however note that the Sabres are 1-0-2 in their last three games, with a win at Colorado and OT losses at Chicago and St. Louis. Nothing to be ashamed of at all. Ottawa meanwhile has been shut out in three of its last four defeats and this will the finale of a demanding seven-game road trip.

As the clincher; Ottawa hasn't beaten Buffalo in regulation in over two years with the Sabres riding an eight-game point streak (6-0-2) in the series after winning four of five meetings last season.

My selection is an 8* play on Buffalo Sabres.
