The Dallas Stars travel to KeyBank Center to clash with the Buffalo Sabres Wednesday night, with puck drop set for 7:00 PM ET / 4:00 PM PT. The Sabres have already clinched the Atlantic Division crown and the Eastern Conference’s second seed, while the Stars sit securely in the Western Conference’s number two slot.

Dallas is the considerable road favorite in the NHL odds for what very well could be a preview of a Stanley Cup Final come June. Buffalo is expected to rest some regulars, leading them to be the underdog in this one.

The value undeniably points toward the home underdogs, despite the Sabres expected to sit some big names. Buffalo is currently positioned at +125 on the moneyline, and their recent situational trends make them a highly appealing bet.

The Sabres have a stellar 12-3 record as an underdog over their last 15 games. They’ve also gone 5-1 at home as an underdog over their last six contests. Buffalo, the best team in the NHL the second half of the campaign, knows how to keep the momentum rolling, sitting at 14-3 after a win over their last 17 games.

The Stars have shown vulnerability against quality competition lately. They’re dropped five of six against opponents with a winning record. Even though Tage Thompson, Rasmus Dahlin and possibly others are expected to be held out for BUF, both teams will be ultra cautions heading into the postseason. Given that, I love betting a home underdog with such a high pricetag.

Entering this contest, Dallas is the favorite in the Stars vs Sabres odds at a commanding a -150 price tag. Conversely, Buffalo sits as the home underdog, offering appealing plus-money value at +125 to secure an outright victory.

This could eventually be a rematch of the 1999 Stanley Cup Final, as both Dallas (+1400) and Buffalo (+1600) are among the favorites in the Stanley Cup odds.
