The Devils, who split back-to-back games with Montreal last week, play the first of three straight home games when they host the Sabres tonight at the Meadowlands.
In second place in the Atlantic, the Devils (10-5-0-0), will try to gain on the division-leading Flyers and they have a good chance of doing so against hapless Buffalo, which has won just three of its 19 matches this year and is at the bottom of the Northeast Division.
Jamie Langenbrunner has sparked the Devils of late, notching all seven of his goals this season in the team’s last seven games.
