The Buffalo Sabres host the Chicago Blackhawks in an NHL regular-season game listed for 13 November 2026, 01:00 UTC — the evening of 12 November in Buffalo.
Buffalo Sabres: home ice and an 8-6-3 record
Eight wins, six regulation losses and three overtime or shootout losses put Buffalo just above half the available points. Injury and lineup news should be checked against public reports before puck drop.
Chicago Blackhawks: a 4-13-1 start
Four wins, thirteen losses and one overtime loss make this one of the weakest starts in the league. Public reports suggest a rebuild built around younger players, with road games against deeper rosters proving harder.
What the Sabres–Blackhawks matchup tests
The question is whether Chicago can match Buffalo's pace at even strength and hold up on special teams. The records favour the home side, but goaltending often decides single NHL games.
