In NHL betting action tonight, the Detroit Red Wings will look to continue their dominance of the Buffalo Sabres, who so far have been the league’s stingiest team.

Detroit has won 15 of its last 18 meetings with Buffalo.

The Red Wings are 15-1-1 with a tie in their last 18 games versus Buffalo dating to March 27, 1996, scoring 3.77 goals per meeting.

These Sabres, though, have yielded three total goals in their first three games, easily the fewest in the league. That’s made up for the fact that Buffalo has scored the fewest goals in the NHL.

Henrik Zetterberg hasn’t scored a goal in five games versus Buffalo, while goaltender Chris Osgood has faced the Sabres just once in the past seven years, when he made 32 saves in a 4-1 victory at Buffalo on April 6.

The road team is 4-1 in the last five meetings.
