New Jersey Devils vs Buffalo Sabres Live Stream: Watch NHL Online
The New Jersey Devils face the Buffalo Sabres at KeyBank Center on November 11th, 2016. Here is all the information you will need to watch the game.
The New Jersey Devils are paying a visit to the Buffalo Sabres tonight. The Devils come into the game with a 6-3-3 record and 15 points. The Sabres are 5-6-3 with 13 points. Both teams are heading in opposite directions in their recent games as they get ready for a home-and-home series tonight and tomorrow.
The Devils come into this game riding a two-game winning streak. They swept a home-and-home series with the Carolina Hurricanes, winning this past Sunday and Tuesday. The Sabres come into the game riding a two-game losing streak, losing to the Boston Bruins and Ottowa Senators earlier this week.
The Sabres have been unable to avoid the injury bug thus far this season. Evander Kane just made his season debut Wednesday against the Senators. Right when he returned to the ice, the Sabres lost center Tyler Ennis. Ennis is expected to miss multiple weeks as he has to undergo surgery for his groin.
“It’s disappointing for Tyler,” said Sabres head coach Dan Bylsma, according to the team’s website. “This is a situation he’s been dealing with for the past little while, days, maybe a week. I’m kind of just extremely disappointed to get the news that he’s going to be out for a bit of time, have the surgery which he had this morning. He’s had a tough go getting on the ice and playing games for the last nine months.”

Unfortunately, this is nothing new for Ennis and the Sabres. Ennis played in only 23 games last season as he battled injuries once again.
The Devils have seen offseason trade acquisition Taylor Hall begin to develop good chemistry with Travis Zajac. Hall has registered at least one point in two of the last three games, while Zajac has a four-game point streak going. They are tied with Damon Severson for the team lead in points with nine on the season.
“[Hall] drives the play 5-on-5,” coach John Hynes said. “I think if you take the special-teams element out of it and what he brings, he’s one of the fastest players on the ice, he’s extremely competitive, he’s strong, he pushes the pace; whoever is on the ice with him, he pushes the pace speed-wise; that in turn helps our team want to play at that level also.”
Will the combination of Hall and Zajac be able to lead the Devils to their third straight game? Or will the Sabres snap their losing streak? We will have to wait and see. Tune in tonight when the Devils and Sabres drop the puck. Here is all the information you need to watch the game.
