Peek grade

The Gist

No lean: Buffalo's -230 price is steep, and the 5.5 total has no clear edge.

▸Buffalo's -230 implies roughly a 70% win probability, a heavy price for a side missing Jason Zucker and goalie Alex Lyon.
▸Tage Thompson leads Buffalo with 2 points, but his 1 goal is the only one from a Sabres leader, so the offense hangs on one name.
▸Chicago is without Connor Bedard, Frank Nazar and Andrew Mangiapane, and Alex Vlasic's 2 points lead a thinned attack, though Jiri Kulich's go-ahead goal in the recent 4-3 Sabres win shows the matchup
