The Buffalo Sabres visit the San Jose Sharks on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, at SAP Center at San Jose. Opening faceoff is scheduled for 10:30 PM ET as both clubs continue their 2026-2027 regular season schedules.
Buffalo brings a 4-3-2 record into the contest. The Sabres have earned points in three of their last four games, going beyond regulation in each of those decisions. Most recently, Buffalo fell 4-3 in overtime at the Montreal Canadiens, following a 5-4 overtime victory at the Toronto Maple Leafs, a 4-3 shootout defeat at Montreal, and a 5-3 home win over the Florida Panthers.
San Jose enters Tuesday with a 4-4-1 record and is winless in two straight games (0-1-1). The Sharks dropped their last contest 3-1 at Toronto after falling 4-3 in a shootout at the Detroit Red Wings. Before those two games, San Jose earned a 3-2 shootout win at the Nashville Predators.
Tuesday marks the first meeting of the regular season between the two clubs. Neither team has faced the other yet during the 2026-2027 campaign.
Buffalo aims to extend its recent scoring output after producing at least three goals in four consecutive contests. San Jose looks to collect two points to end its two-game winless slide as the teams meet in California.
