I bet Reinhart makes the Sabres this year. Schaller will start in the AHL and be called up as injuries occur.

Moulson-O'Reilly-Ennis
Kane-Eichel-Reinhart
Girgensons-Larsson-Gionta
Foligno-Legwand-McGinn

McCormick, Deslauriers

I really like Kane with Eichel and it gives him someone with speed to play with. I really like Deslauriers and he has a great bruising game but with a log jam already at the Forward positions I see him starting the year in the press box. Bring him in halfway through the year and let him crush some already banged up players while he has fresh legs.

Looking at those lines, it really drives home to me how much we've flipped our D depth for forward depth. Although last year was a bit of an illusion. While I yearned to see Pysyk or even McCabe in the lineup, playing Mez and Benoit to ensure last place seemed to be the priority.

I couldn't care less who is on the last line. I love that we have this log jam for the bottom 6. This is a good problem!

As for Reinhart... He is definitely ready IMO. More ready than Eichel. Reinhart took what the Sabres told him last season and its obvious he worked on all of it. If he starts off here I will predict he ends up being a ROTY candidate!

Scahller isn't making the team. He barely made the injury call up list last year. Lol guy is high. Not the same team as last year Mr. Schaller. Your Rochester bound.

I say Souray only because he was an idiot and broke his hand twice getting into fights in the same year. That said he had one really good season with the Oil and then couldn't stay healthy.

Redden is up there too. I think Leino is 4th or 5th on that list behind the 2 aforementioned and Holik and Gomez. Leino gets knocked down a few spots because his contract wasn't for as much as the other guys.

I don't understand how you can look at what Briere did with the Flyers in the playoffs while under that contract and call it a bust. It was the furthest thing from it. When it mattered the most, that guy played his best.

Jason Akeson on the right wing? Who is this kid? How and when did we get him and why is he rated to be such a success?

He had some really nice stats in the AHL over the past two seasons do you know why Philly gave up on him?

It looks like they never really gave him a chance.

When they did play him it was on the 4th line as a shutdown role, yet he has skill.

lol R'OR as a winger for Eichel so that Reinhart can play C?

Ryan is their 1C 100%. Girgensons will be second. Eichel will start as third. Expect Reinhart on somebody's wing.

Woohoo! Coming to Buffalo, finally!!!

Looking at the Leafs @ Sabres, 21st October home game, so I have a couple of questions.

Bought off Stubhub before so not worried about that, but am I better off going for 105 or 106 seats, 105 is behind the players bench, does that impede your view at all ?

This is going to be a once in lifetime type situation, so if you were doing it would it be 105 or 106 seats ?
