The Buffalo Sabres got Jack Eichel (lower body) back for Sunday's clash with the Flyers, but the team's rocky road is set to continue during next week's four-game slate. The Sabres return to the ice on Tuesday against the New York Rangers and will then have three straight games against the New York Islanders. The Rangers have been mediocre thus far this season, but they do own a top-10 defense with a 2.68 goals-against average, and they limited the Sabres to five goals across two games earlier in the season. The Islanders have a top-three defense with a 2.29 goals-against average and Buffalo has managed only three goals in three games against them. Both New York squads are strong penalty-killing teams as well and the Sabres have scored nearly a half (19) of their 42 goals with the man advantage, so after getting shutout in back-to-back meetings with Philly, Buffalo could easily end up shooting blanks for a few more times in the upcoming games.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
