'The other thing Buffalo could not afford to do in this game is sit back and let Florida dictate the play in this period. That has definitely not been the case this frame as the blue and gold have continued to move the play forward and the forwards are still using a hard fore check to keep the play in the offensive zone.' … [Read more...] about Sabres shut out Florida 3-0

'"It was probably our best start of the year. In that first period we went at them, and I thought we did a good job just taking the play to them, playing on our toes. I think that's probably our most complete game of the year."' … [Read more...] about From the Locker Room: Sabres-Panthers

'“We’ve got to be what we’re saying we’re going to do because turnovers and stuff like that, it really kills you and good teams that are winning on a consistent basis, they take care of the blue line and they take care of certain parts of the ice and they always have a good third guy and they keep things on the outside and we’ve got to get to that part because I feel like we … [Read more...] about Sabres’ Lehner ready to go

'Last year it was mildly frustrating to watch the Sabres get dominated in overtime. This year it’s flat out inexcusable. The NHL’s 3-2-1 point system makes it so the 5 minute overtime and shootout are worth just as much as the 60 minutes that come before it. With that in mind, I want my team to be the best at it.

'He gave it a little more thought and smiled saying, “Just put the puck in the net I guess.” He did get serious after that and agreed he must use his speed more, “Yes I think so, I think I need to push the pace and use my speed all over the ice and then just think about getting the puck to the net."' … [Read more...] about Sabres’ Ennis is happy to have Reinhart in the middle

'Starting with the overtime goal in Calgary, Reinhart has been turning the puck over a lot. Bylsma said, “We have six goals in one game and four in the other three games. Sam needs to get a little bit more of the feet moving, a little bit more speed to his game. He made some great plays early on, but we need to get more out of Sam in providing a little bit more offense for our … [Read more...] about Sabres moving Reinhart to center
