Lindy's game-day skate comments

[BetweenThePipes00]

Just listened on Sabres.com ... shorter than usual ... apparently Lydman skated, but still no timetable for return. No one asked about Paille being called up ... nor did they ask about anyone missing from the skate ... so I am assuming someone is a healthy scratch tonight ... they may not have included everything ... but they usually do.

I attended this morning's practice at the arena. Lydman participated for the entire practice and actually had some nice moves during breakaway drills. In fact, I think he was one of the last players off the ice. So that was good to see. Hecht also seemed to be doing just fine, and didn't show any ill effects after that big hit he took on Saturday. I don't remember seeing a few players during practice--such as Drury, Briere, Afinogenov, Numminen, and maybe even Campbell--but they may have been excused. Everyone else was present, I think, including Paille and Funk. They seemed to be in good spirits. It was fun to watch.
