Day #3 of Sabres in Focus - Tyler Ennis

Although he is unsigned at this point, I'm confident the Sabres will ink him in the near future. That being said, here is what I expect from Ennis this season.

This one is a bit tougher to break down than the previous two I have written up. Tyler Ennis has played one full season for the Sabres (last year he played just 48 games). He's 22 years old and has one 20 goal season under his belt already.

He's a skillful forward who I believe will have his best season yet as a Buffalo Sabre. He's extremely talented and I see him reaching the 20 goal plateau as he did two years ago.



Ennis has tremendous upside and doesn't seem to disappear in the playoffs like so many other players. He's only played 13 NHL playoff games, but he does have eight points (3 G, 5 A). Not to mention the overtime goal to put Buffalo up 3-2 against Philly.



Ennis has a lot of potential, but just how high will he go this year?


My prediction: 75 GP, 27 G, 32 A, 59 Pts

Based on the polls from yesterday's post, readers have predicted Myers' offensive totals for this season.

My prediction: 9G, 35 A, 44 pts
Readers' prediction: 10 G, 33 A, 43 pts
