Bogo?? You kidding me?

yeah that kind of through me for a loop too, perhaps he has been a leader at practice and PH liked what he saw in him?

And whats with four A's, how does that work?  does one person not wear one each game?

Bogosian isn't playing tonight, so no need to worry about that right now.

 

Only thing I can think of is Housley wanted the D represented in some way

 

Ristolainen would have been the better answer IMO.

Bogo instead of Risto is puzzling, especially since Bogo isn't even playing.

Not sure Risto is all that vocal. Bogo definitely is

Ya but Bogo is notoriously hurt and usually misses atleast 20% of the season. If he plays like he did last year he will likely be third pairing playing few minutes. That's not what I want from an A.

I get that, but, he was listed as day to day, so he could be back for Saturday's game, then what is the plan?

You have heard it here first, I think ...

 

*And your 2017/18 Buffalo Sabres Captain ... Rasmus Risto ...*

 

Book it.

 

(I think)

I think the plan is to deal with it on Saturday.

Some guys perform best when you show them you trust them.

Housley clearly is taking that tack with Bogosian.

 

And he is also clearly off Blue's invite list for Canadian Thanksgiving dinner.

They're overthinking this.   Just give Eichel the "C" and be done with it.   It's not as big a deal as they're making it out to be.  He'll grow into it.

The sabres could up a cup of coffee. And they routinely do.

Bogo is currently injured too

Ya, but all 4 weren't gonna wear at once, right? And Housley specifically said rotating.

 

So it was going to be between there being 2 alternates on the ice each game or 3. So I guess it's 3.
