The Canes will face the middling Sabres for the first time this season.
What - Game 45 (26-15-3)
When - 6 p.m., Wednesday, Jan. 15
Where - KeyBank Center; Buffalo, NY
How to Watch - TNT, truTV, MAX, TVAS
The Carolina Hurricanes will take on the Buffalo Sabres (16-22-5) for the first time this season tonight at KeyBank Center.
The Canes are coming off of a 3-2 overtime loss to the Anaheim Ducks on Sunday, but have points in three straight games.
The team is still trying to find a consistent pulse, but January has definitely been a better month for the team.
On the other hand, you have the Sabres who yet again are in a season mired by disappointment.
Buffalo is coming off of a 6-2 loss to the Seattle Kraken on Saturday and have lost four of their last six.
It seems that nothing really can go right for the Sabres who have struggled to consistently generate offense, but they have found a bit more success in that regard as of late.
Carolina, and TBH mostly Sebastian Aho, has completely owned the Sabres in recent memory, so we'll see if that's still the case tonight.
