It's funny how you have a blog about toughness in the East, and you choose Kaleta as the photo.

My thoughts on what our opening night roster should look like

Vanek- Hodgson-Leino
Ennis-Grigorenko-Stafford
Foligno-Girgensons/Larsson-Ott
Flynn-Porter-Kaleta
Scott

Erhoff- Pysyk
Tallinder-Myers
Weber-Mcbain
Sulzer, Ristolainen (if they carry 8)
Miller
Enroth

It is going to be a rough year.....

is GARTH the new red wings blogger?

and Alfredsson,Weiss over Filpulla and Brunner any day.

also Kindl improved greatly last season, we now have Dekeyser full time.
Nyquist and Tatar are playing full time now.

also Alfredsson and Weiss know the eastern teams, they've played in that conference their whole careers.

It is going to be a rough year.....

i like Larsson, reminds me of Andersson on the wings. very solid 2 way player with size.

That it is, but at least it will be exciting to watch the kids play. For once in a long while, we should see a Sabres team that brings effort each and every nite. We may not come out with the W, but I'll take a hard played loss any day. We've known for a while that we aren't going to be good for the next few seasons. Sit back, and enjoy watching the new core come into their own.

I agree and am psyched to see who emerges over a long season as go-to, gimme-the-puck guys (Armia, Grigs, Girgs?)and who are the floaters who get demoted or traded (Staff, Ennis?).

Very keen on seeing how Myers, Leino and Enroth do. Those 3 have career years and it'll be a great ride IMO.
