Stars vs. Sabres Prediction

I’m on the Stars here. I just feel like Dallas is the more stable team coming into this matchup. Buffalo has shown some fight and promise offensively early on this season, but despite scoring 4+ goals in 4 straight, they’ve gone just 2-2 which tells me goaltending is still an issue. I think it continues to be an issue here as well. Give me Dallas.
