Let the optimism continue …

 

Sabres … 4

Pens … 3

 

Joker, Hinostroza, or Weissbach with a goal

[sabresouth]

Also on NHLN... it's about time.  I have missed sabres hockey. 

[Flashsabre]

Sabres lineup today is an interesting mix. UPL getting the start. Excited to see how Savoie plays.

[Sabres Fan in NS]

MUST WIN!!

GO SABRES!!

I don't know many of the players on the Sabres roster today and only 1 Penguin.

3 ex sabres in the pens lineup! To be fair Tokarski, Caggiula and Nylander were all forgettable! 

Yay Sabres

BOO pens.

 

Also thought there was a 32 thoughts lovechild on the Pens roster, misread the D-man as Marek Friedman 

[JohnC]

It's difficult to evaluate players in training camp and preseason because there are so many players to work in. But what I can say from what I have seen so far is that Savoie looks like a better prospect than Krebs, much of that favorable view based on Savoie's ability to shoot and Krebs reluctance to. It's likely that Savoie will be sent back to the juniors for developmental reasons. There is no question that Krebs is talented. However, he has not translated that talent to the NHL game yet. Maybe more extensive playing time in Rochester will better prepare him for the NHL? Shoot more please!

Actually 4, Chad Ruhwedel.

[dudacek]

I think Krebs, Biro, Quinn, Peterka, Savoie the first players to get their 3rd games. Any I miss?

Won’t this be Cozens’ 3rd as well?

[7+6=13]

If only this team wasn't being told winning doesn't really matter.  

 

sorry forgot the sarcasm font

Cozens played in the opener vs the Caps, that’s it. So this is his second game.

There is no definitive way to rate prospects but it is no great revelation to say Savoie is a “better prospect” than Krebs, this not a shocker.  

Krebs will be good player, give him a chance.

Add in Chad Ruhwedel.  None of those 4 would make our lineup today (and maybe not the Pens).  That shows some progress at least.  

[SABRES 0311]

I’m excited to see more of Savoie and Quinn.

[Flashsabre]

The message board always needs a whipping boy. For some reason Krebs is being groomed as the next one.

[PromoTheRobot]

So is this being streamed on Sabres.com or is it NHLTV exclusive?

Probably because of the trade. Tage relinquished the role last year.

Me too.

But even more interested in watching Power. Kid continues to fly under the hype train radar

[Brawndo]

Pilut and Biro scratched 

[dudacek]

The Thompson/Quinn/Olofsson combo is counterintuitive: probably our three best natural scorers on the same line?

They do have other parts to their games, but something to watch.

Damn, Weissbach looks different than last year.
