This is the 7th game all-time between Buffalo and Detroit; Buffalo has a series record. The Sabres are at home against the Red Wings all-time. THIS DATE IN SABRES HISTORY The Sabres are all-time on January. January, 999: Miroslav Satan extends his goal streak to eight games with a game-winning tally in a 7- win at home against Calgary. THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW Today s game is the fifth of afternoon games for the Sabres this season; the next will be on Sunday, Jan. 0 at Winnipeg. The Sabres enter today s game with a -0- record in their last five games against the Atlantic Division. After the team s win on Dec. at Detroit, the Sabres are looking for wins in consecutive matchups with the Red Wings for the first time March 6, 99 and Nov., 995. A win would also give the Sabres two wins in a season against the Red Wings for the first time since they won both matchups in the season. With an win or overtime/shootout loss tonight, the Sabres would have points in three straight matchups with the Red Wings for the first time since Oct., 009 to Feb. 6, 0 (-0-) Rasmus Ristolainen has four assists in two games against the Red Wings this season.

9 Ryan O Reilly has a point in each of his last two games against Detroit (+). Jack Eichel entered Friday s games ranked 0th in the NHL with shots on goal. Evander Kane s 8 shots per game ranked him ninth in the league. Ryan O Reilly (:5) leads all NHL forwards in average ice time per game and Evander Kane (0:56) ranks fourth. JACK ATTACK Jack Eichel enters tonight s game with nine points (+7) in his last six games after recording a career-high four points (+) on Saturday at Boston and two assists last night at Washington. With his four-point performance, Eichel became the first rookie to tally four points in a game for the Sabres since Tyler Myers (+) on March 0, 00 vs. Dallas. He was the second-youngest player ever to post a four-point game for the Sabres (Phil Housley, 8 years, Oct. 7, 98 vs. Edmonton). JOHNNY ON THE SPOT Chad Johnson has appeared in 5 games since the beginning of November, logging a 7-- record with a.95 save percentage and a.97 goals-against average during that stretch.

Jordan Leopold (00-) was the last Sabres defenseman to record seven multi-point games. His four power-play goals are the most by a Sabres defenseman since 00- (Jordan Leopold, 5). With 5 points (7+8) in 8 games, Ristolainen is on pace for 5 points this season.
