###### yeah. *inhales deeply* Yyyyyyooouuuuurrrrrrr Bufffaalllooooo Sabres will head on up to the Great White North to kick some ass and take some names. And guess what folks? These Canadiens have absolutely no names. Well, not the name that counts at least. Meanwhile, we're over here, sitting like the ###### Superman of IR reports (no, not the Christopher Reeves version). We have, coming back: Des, Reinhart, and Gorges. So, we don't get Ennis. Outside of that though, this is the healthiest this group has looked all year. As for how we're playing. Hot damn, are we looking good well, some of them at least. Our boy, Jack Eichel? Well, he only has 20 points in his last 18 games, and has vaulted himself ahead in the Calder conversation; he sits only behind 32 year old Artemi Panarin in both points and goals among rookies, and should be all rested and good to continue his dominance coming off the ASB. You think Jack hated watching Larkin in the ASG? Does a bear ###### in the woods? Was my smoking hot sophmore Spanish teacher fired for sending out nudes? Did anyone expect the Spanish Inquisition? As for the team in general, well, there's a chance. We sit 13 points out of a WC spot right now, and I encourage you all to check out our schedule for the remainder of the year. It's not exactly Siberia we're being thrown into. We're getting healthy, and anyone we may trade at the deadline isn't exactly detrimental to this team's current playoff hopes. Don't dismiss the playoffs yet, folks. We may not make it, but I think we're going to have a hell of a 2nd half. Coming off a resilient 3-2 in Ottawa last Tuesday night, Buffalo has hopes in making some noise right out of the gate, and continuing that momentum until the rest of the league takes this young group of players seriously Game Preview STATS: All Stats Montreal @ Buffalo (7-2 loss) All Team Rankings Team Comparison Chart Tuesday Practice Report Buffalo: Forwards: 88 Jamie McGinn – 90 Ryan O''Reilly – 23 Sam Reinhart 28 Zemgus Girgensons – 15 Jack Eichel – 82 Marcus Foligno 9 Evander Kane – 22 Johan Larsson – 12 Brian Gionta 26 Matt Moulson – 17 David Legwand – 44 Nicolas Deslauriers Defense: 4 Josh Gorges – 55 Rasmus Ristolainen 47 Zach Bogosian – 3 Mark Pysyk 29 Jake McCabe – 46 Cody Franson 6 Mike Weber – 25 Carlo Colaiacovo Goalies: 40 Robin Lehner 31 Chad Johnson Power Play 1 McGinn – O'Reilly – Reinhart Eichel – Ristolainen Power Play 2 Kane – Girgensons – Gionta Bogosian – Cody Franson
