Kuemper is one of, if not the hottest goaltenders in the league, as he has gone 11-0-2 with a 1.87 GAA and .938 save percentage in his last 15 appearances. Kuemper is also coming off back-to-back shutouts over the Vegas Golden Knights and Dallas Stars.
The Avalanche are the odds-on favorite to represent the Western Conference in the Stanley Cup finals. They are also in the lead for the President's Trophy. The Avalanche have a one-point lead over the Florida Panthers and a game in hand.
On Saturday, Kuemper and the Avalanche will take on the Buffalo Sabres. The Avs are huge favorites in this contest. They are +120 (-2.5) on the puck line, -450 on the money line, with an over/under of six, over (-114), under (-106).
