12.02.2014 Tampa Bay Lightning at Buffalo Sabres game day coverage

The Tampa Bay Lightning (17-6-2), holding the top spot in the entirety of the National Hockey League, play the flip-side of back-to-back games tonight in Buffalo against the Sabres (8-14-2). Don’t let the bottom-dweller status of the Sabres fool you as they can full-well sneak up on you and get two points, just ask the Montreal Canadiens (who lost back-to-back games to the Sabres and ceded their overall league-lead because of it).
