After putting together a strong showing at home last week, the Bruins snuffed out all of them momentum with an ugly loss to Buffalo.

The Boston Bruins suffered an embarrassing 7-2 loss to the Buffalo Sabres on Jan. 28. With the Sabres at the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings, this was a winnable game for Boston, but they were blown out instead.

The Sabres return home for an Atlantic Division showdown. The Buffalo Sabres face the Boston Bruins on Tuesday at KeyBank Center, aiming to put their 1-3-0 road trip, which ended with a 3-2 loss Saturday in Edmonton, behind them.

This is because forward Cole Koepke will be back in the lineup after missing each of the Bruins' last five games. On defense, the Bruins could be even more shorthanded, however. Brandon Carlo has been labeled a game-time decision due to an illness.
