Finally the new season is about to start!
Sabres are +126 underdogs ml against Canes on opening night, and that is an easy play!
Canes have had problems all pre-season and won just 1 game, and that was the last game of the pre-season (4-2 against Caps). In total they went 1-4 during the pre-season. They have also lost quite a few key-players and they have had problem getting new lines to work. Canes are going for Cam Ward in goal, and he was fabulous during the playoffs last season, but no way he can keep that up this season. To day they raise the Stanley Cup banner before the game, and that will be an emotional moment for both fans and players.
Sabres has kept most of their key-players before this season, and they have a really talented team. In the pre-season they won all but 1 game and in total they where 5-1. Of course they will miss both Mike Grier and Jay McKee, but Sabres still has one of the most talented teams in the league. Sabres lost to Canes in last seasons playoff, and seeing Canes raise the banner before the game should be plenty of inspiration.
Canes was close to unbeatable at home last season, but expect them to have a lot more trouble this season. It is easy to place a bet on the Sabres for this game with the form they showed in pre-season, and Canes is probably going to be underpaid at least for the first few games of the season as they are floating on the fact that they won the cup last season.
Bet: Sabres ML +126 (ot included) 3 units at Pinnacle.
